@riceandplantain @skvllkill @glumirror it doesn’t have to be in the diagnostic criteria to be a core symptom. it’s present in 35%-70% of adults and 40% of kids. it should still be considered even if it’s not part of current diagnostic criteria in the US. https://t.co/woyFAgRkDp

Did you actually research this topic by looking at the DSM and research journals or did you just tweet this out while claiming to be more informed than her? https://t.co/woyFAgQMNR
