Obviously you've ...Dude, this was two days ago. Obviously you've had time to comment judging by the "post a minute" record you are trying to set. <br />I have done nothing to you. I have not "called you out" and GASP! Perhaps. Did not mention your name because I was not solely speaking to you. The only reason you have waited 2 days to respond to thi particular comment is because MPP cut out your latest round of crazy and you are bored. For someone who spends "all day" taking care of your family you seem to have a lot of free time. <br />Call me out by name and I will respond. That's why mpp left my response. If you don't like how she runs her blog then you can leave. I echo mpp in saying that. Don't like my comments? Then don't read them. It's very easy to tell when they are mine. They are under my name and use my picture. But please stop acting like a 12 year old who has nothing better to do than pick fights on the internet. It's disrespectful of mpp's time and it's disrespectful of all the other readers who want the drama to stop. This blog does SO much good. Why try and distract from that? You said it yourself, you have better things to do with your time. As do I. So please consider the damage you are doing to an amazing blog before you try and stir up 2 day old stuff. I certainly don't have the energy to deal with your virtual hissy fits. Hence my lack of involvement. <br />Go get some fresh air, relax, take a bubble bath, listen to soft music, light a yankee candle (I have several I can recommend). Try putting a smile on your face. Even if you don't feel like smiling. It's been proven to improve ones mood and attitude. Then come back, and be a pleasant and helpful contributer to the isyn cause. If something bugs you in the moment, that's fine, talk about it, get it off your chest. But do so in the moment rather than going back to something that is days old. You are better than that Honey.<br /><br />All the best.Lynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16792145175465896760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-70635564760607106382012-10-30T17:02:14.057-04:002012-10-30T17:02:14.057-04:00We get it CMAD - you love drama and you love playi...We get it CMAD - you love drama and you love playing victim. Please take your own advice about acting like an adult. This forum is going dangerously downhill, and I don't think it is fair that MPP keeps having to ask people to remain civil. I'm sure she has more important things to do, and things she'd rather spend her time on, than moderating everyone. So yes, please, let's all act like adults and stick to the topic on hand.

E...Thanks to everyone for the supportive comments!<br /><br />Ericsmom,<br /><br />Of course I don't mind you asking. I do not claim expertise in all areas, however!<br /><br />ASPD = Antisocial Personality Disorder. It is the currently correct diagnosis in the DSM-IV for what we commonly call being a sociopath or psychopath. <br /><br />Prevalence varies by country, but 1 in 3 to 1 in 4 people are commonly cited numbers for current prevalence of any mental illness. But lifetime prevalence rates are almost 50%. This is considered one of the best studies on all mental illness: <br /><br />http://archpsyc.jamanetwork.com/article.aspx?articleid=208678<br /><br />I am not a Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, though have worked with this population a fair amount, so cannot claim to have as strong a grasp of the literature here. My understanding is that it has historically been extremely difficult to study psychiatric comorbidities in those with Autism/ASD. Overall, there is a higher rate of other psychiatric illnesses. Most studies have found higher rates of anxiety disorders and ADHD. Some studies have found higher rates of depression, particularly depressive symptoms not meeting criteria for Major Depressive Disorder. I believe there is also some belief that people with ASD and a higher IQ are at higher risk of mood disorders. All these areas need more investigation. <br /><br />One of the oft cited studies here:<br />http://www.bu.edu/autism/files/2010/03/2006-Leyfer-et-al-comorbid-disorders1.pdf<br /><br />Regarding, maternal depression and rates of mental illness in their children with ASD -- that's a tough one and really not well studied! In general, we know that depression has a genetic component and that a depressed mom = higher rates of psychiatric disorders in their children (which improves as mom improves). I see no reason why this would not apply to kids with ASD also. The limited data I could find supports this.nycmomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-25949464481563372672012-10-28T22:39:33.418-04:002012-10-28T22:39:33.418-04:00Wow!!

I truly enjoy reading your posts as they are well thought out, presented factually and right on the money. I also enjoyed reading your most recent post as I think the blaming of the parents in any direct/indirect way in this case is asinine. Thank you for your words. Theresanoreply@blogger.com
