Guest guest Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 Before signing any petition, educate yourself on what CADD is so you feel comfortable lending or withholding your support from the petition gprobertson linked to in her post. The petition states that the concept of " Cassandra Affective Deprivation Disorder " was INVENTED by British psychologist Maxine Aston. Let us not forget that Autism was INVENTED by Eugen Bleuler, a Swiss psychiatrist -- the first person to use the term. Here are three links from which to begin researching if you are interested in educating yourself on Aston's research: http://www.help4aspergers.com/pb/wp_d5946d62/wp_d5946d62.html http://www.maxineaston.co.uk/cassandra/ http://www.maxineaston.co.uk/cassandra/canda.shtml I am neither supporting nor damning CADD as I am researching its validity at the moment.
