I consider Dr. Phil to be pure entertainment. I take nothing he says remotely seriously.

What bothers me, is that now people are going to think that people with AS are normally like the Teen who was on his show. They take a Difference, make it out to be "Extreame" and than they call it a Disease. I am NOT Diseased! I'm unique! I think that a lot of it could be Acting, as well. :roll:


AS is not a disease, its a state of mind, like color blindness. Anyone who doesn't know that doesn't know anything about AS at all.

Besides, I really dislike both "Dr" Phil and Opera. They are superficial, generalising and ignorant. I don't give much for talkshows at all. It's at least 90% fraud, whatever it's about.

I have never liked Dr. Phil. His self rightousness is SO annoying. Also I find it hard to contemplate why people would turn to a complete stranger for serious life advice.

This story of him giving false info is not surprising at all.
