Uhm, yes, by actually living INSIDE the disorder, as opposed to observing it from a distance, I think we are often better qualified to point out what it ISN'T.


No, living INSIDE something, is NOT the best place to judge what it looks like from the outside. Remember, she's not in his head. She's not describing what he looks like to himself. She's describing what she sees. Her judgements may be wrong.

Plus, you are talking about AS like it's one thing. It isn't.
