Generalized Anxiety Disorder[edit]

Can someone please explain to me how Generalized anxiety disorder fits within the scope of your WikiProject? As someone with generalized anxiety disorder I find this kind of offensive. It's ridiculous, I would like an explanation, please. ThatGirlTayler (talk) 20:11, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

ThatGirlTayler It was removed because this project was marked as inactive, but I'd imagine it might be considered a common co-occurring disorder for people on the spectrum? Conditions comorbid to autism spectrum disorders seems to suggest so. It's not an insinuation that people with anxiety are autistic but that autistic people might be more likely to also have an anxiety disorder. - Purplewowies (talk) 16:30, 24 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
