Autism Spectrum Disorder
The spectrum is an interesting concept. It can be an unfair categorization of someone who's socially and occupationally very healthy. We don't define a disorder unless there's social or occupational dysfunction. I've had patients who are pleasantly hallucinating, so frankly psychotic, but doesn't affect their lives. If someone has them, but they're successful socially and occupationly, we don't say that there's a disorder.
