RFK and Trump claim to have found the "cause" of Autism.

We use both and they were both updated at roughly the same time. The diagnotic criteria for ASD was updated in the same way when shifting from ICD-9 to ICD-10 and done so conjointly with the updates to the DSM

I've heard that private doctors over here can reference the DSM whenever they want, so it may be that a few of them are favouring the DSM.

Autism? Should I take the tylenol rectally or what?

Well it depends on whether you have had your foreskin removed or not since that's what DJT and RFK have recently said is especially high risk.

It's hooeey

They are fairly interchangeable when it comes to psychiatric diagnostics aside from a few exceptions

Here's an AI synopsis that I've read through and feel is a reliable and straightforward explanation of the differences. I only mention it as AI because I don't always trust their output without verifying that the information given is genuine and accurate. In this case, I can support this overview:

The two systems also differ in their approach to mental health. DSM-5 explicitly alerts clinicians to consider cultural variables that may influence diagnosis, a feature absent in ICD-10, which does not provide such guidance.
Furthermore, DSM-5 includes a dimensional model for personality disorders in Section III, offering a more nuanced assessment beyond the traditional categorical approach.
ICD-10, however, does not contain the same level of detail for psychiatric diagnoses as DSM-5, which is considered more comprehensive for mental health conditions.

Despite their differences, the systems are linked in practice. DSM-5 includes both ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes in parentheses for each diagnosis, allowing clinicians to use the DSM-5 for diagnosis and then assign the appropriate ICD-10 code for billing.
The American Psychiatric Association (APA) and U.S. regulatory bodies like CMS recognize DSM-5 as the official source for selecting ICD-10 codes for mental disorders.
However, discrepancies exist; for example, DSM-5's neurocognitive disorders (replacing dementia) are not directly mirrored in ICD-10's classification.
Additionally, the DSM-5's dimensional approach to substance use disorders, which categorizes severity based on the number of criteria met, may not perfectly align with ICD-10's categorical approach, requiring empirical validation for accurate cross-walking.

I don't think Trump is making his followers live in a compound and charging them £100000k to find out about the ancient space aliens who control the woke left

RFK seems like a smart guy, he did a lot of good stuff re big factories polluting rivers, some of his advice re vaccines sounds a bit kooky but I don't know enough about the situation to really make a judgement

Yeah but he has no basis in science - he just says whatever suits his political ideology

He says hes for psychedelics so that might be positive, even tho Trump has just restarted the drug war.
 
I think taking on ultra violent drug cartels is a bit more complicated than "starting the drug war again", these people skin people alive and put the videos online as a trophy. He isn't bombing LSD cooking hippies.

RFK also said that Heroin is a nootropic :LOL:
 
Is it anything to do with the "drug gangs" or just a way of flipping the government and putting a billionaire backed patsy in? Lot of oil in that country that the billionaires want to make money on.
 
RFK seems completely clueless about anything health or medical related. He must be great at blowing smoke up Trump's ass to have got the position of Health Secretary. Or w/e it's called in the U.S.

He definitely did not get it on the basis of merit or knowledge.

He's very poorly informed about many health issues. (This was very apparent when he was talking about Autism, and from some other posts I've seen above.) This is obviously concerning as he's the guy in charge of policy decisions.

Trump did pardon and release Ross Ulbricht from his 2 life sentences pretty soon after his second victory. This seemingly strange decision was apparently to 'fulfill a promise he made to his libertarian supporters.'

But yeah in all other aspects he's hardline anti-drugs, even proposing the death penalty for dealers.

As Trump himself would say "He's a piece of work!"

trump just says and does whatever he thinks will benefit himself, there is no coherent ideology. anything that does seem coherent is typically pushed into his ear by those around him like the white nationalist Stephen Miller
