Re: Self diagnosed mental issues

[(Anonymous)]

Basically as I've had it explained to me, years ago the negative was "an autistic" and the positive was "A person with autism"

Then culture and language shifted, as it does. Autism Speaks really started pushing "Person with autism, cure the autism and save the person!" and pushing the narrative of autism as a disease that steals away healthy babies. So person-first got associated as the bad, and the current trend is to use "Autistic person, like blind person, deaf person." to try and normalize it as part of the person instead of a disease affecting the person.

And so you get two sides of the fence on which is better depending on which someone learned as the negative term and which was learned as the positive term.

That makes sense! I knew there was some contention with it re: autism and person first language but I didn't know as much. That makes since though! It does make sense to me that it would be more akin to, say, the Deaf community. Thanks for the explanation!
