Autism Diagnostic Criteria-DSM-5 Explained [Brief Explanation]

05 Mar 2021

Description

DISCLAIMER: I am no medical doctor, I'm just your normal Jo Bloggs who's sharing her lived experiences with Autism that was called Aspergers. If you see any warning signs/symptoms that may be related to any of the topics I share as of in the future, please seek a second opinion or treatment with a  medical professional. What I share with you in how I go about managing my autism will vary from person to person and that what may work for me,  may not work for you and what will work for you may not work for me and vice versa. So, please be considerate while I give you all my advice and/or tips. This is one of the many series of the DSM-5 I am going to explain to you all today. The autism diagnosis criteria are written for professional use and are therefore shrouded in mysterious and somewhat opaque language. In this video, I'm attempting to explain the DSM criteria for autism diagnosis (under the umbrella of Autism Spectrum Disorder) which is used in North America and parts of Europe (the ICD-11 is a more international version, but it is largely the same for the purposes of autism diagnosis). I also shared some parts based on my experiences and struggles from some parts of the diagnosis process that it takes for us to get the autistic diagnosis.   To read the DSM-5 criteria for yourself: https://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/autism/hcp... As shared I've also done a few series on my channel which you can find under the playlist DSM 5 Manual and the NZ ASD Guidelines So, come and join me and have a listen as I educate you all about this part of the series and more. Happy listening! *ABOUT ME* Hello, I'm Aspie Answers from NZ.I have Aspergers Syndrome that is now clinically known in the DSM5 Manual of Diagnostics as Autism.  My social medias of where you can find me are as follows: ๐Ÿ”ด Facebook: https://wwww.facebook.com/Aspie.Answers/ ๐Ÿ”ด Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/AspieAnswers ๐Ÿ”ด Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aspieanswers/ DONATE TO THE CAUSE AND FUTURE PROJECTS: ๐Ÿ’ฐ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/AspieAnswers  BUY MY MERCH BY VISITING HERE: https://www.spreadshirt.com/life-of-aspie.com MORE OF MY MERCH DESIGNS ARE COMING SOON.
