Instead, their theory is that "normal" is in the middle and autism is in one direction away from normal and schizophrenia is in the opposite direction away from normal. One implication is that persons with autism are unlikely to develop schizophrenia, even though as adults the outward appearance may seem similar. One step further might be that adults who originally were diagnosed as having schizophrenia but now claim they are on the autism spectrum might really have schizophrenia and not at all autism because they are diametrical according to this new theory. It is possible I seriously misunderstand their theory and its implications.Arthur Goldenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03177577505916908123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33052404.post-27449164203221575162008-11-16T14:40:00.000-04:002008-11-16T14:40:00.000-04:00That is a great legend marius.That is a great legend marius.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05838571980003579163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33052404.post-20871244261361345902008-11-16T10:26:00.000-04:002008-11-16T10:26:00.000-04:00There is a legend in Eastern Europe saying that, w...There is a legend in Eastern Europe saying that, while the Turks were launching their final assault upon the great city of Constantinople, the greek theologians of the day fiercely debated, behind the city walls, whether angels do have a sex and if so, which one is it?<BR/><BR/>Autism and schizophrenia may or may not be part of the same spectrum. This doesn't change the reality that many young children get diagnosed with autism every single year and for many of them the perspectives are not at all good.Marius Filiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11369035654997497568noreply@blogger.com
