Well, I do believe I have ADHD, OCD, maybe autism, Schizoid PD (NOT schizophrenia) maybe more.
So yes. I very much so believe it has something to do with it.
If we change the name of something or the category it belongs to that doesn’t mean he underlying thing doesn’t exist.
Also, I know what formerly means.
It’s the first link that explained the difference I came across.
Wait, do you think people can not have mental retardation? What?
Ok, here Wikipedia instead:
“Mental retardation, also known as intellectual disability, a disorder characterized by significantly impaired cognitive functioning and deficits in adaptive behaviors.”
You are absolutely wrong it’s 100% real it just got merged into the ASD (Autism spectrum disorder). Please do research.
You guys might really be autistic based on how pedantic this thread has become.
it’s not us being pedantic, it’s reality. In reality, a thing can be redesignated and not be made unreal by the act. Sorry! It’s inconvenient I know.

Did you think I wouldn’t check?
Actually, I have gotten my snippet from a different page:
See first thing under “Medicine and biology” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retardation
Changing the name didn’t change the reality, jfc
dude that is wayyy too hard for people
You do know that scientific terminology changes to reflect accuracy, right?
That’s not the argument you were making.
That’s exactly the argument I was making.
No, it really wasn’t.
you were trying, but you were wrong, having misunderstand reclassification as nullification.
You really wish that, that much is obvious
