Rabbi Kelemen said previously that no one is intrinsically an addict or intrinsically has an anger problem etc. everyone can change. I was brought up with this concept but I find myself hitting a brick wall when it comes to labels. When someone has been diagnosed with high functioning autism, OCD, or ADHD. Many medical people and others, that I have encountered, see these people as stuck in their diagnosis. Yes, they can move somewhat up and down the scale but they are who they are. I see these labels as signposts. If I have been diagnosed with Autism I have extra avodah in the area of empathy, just as the next person has extra avodah in the area of anger or jealousy. If I am diagnosed with OCD I need to work on my Bitachon to a greater degree then the next person and so on. My question is: is my thinking flawed? Most people and professionals I meet seem to see the world differently. visit https://www.lawrencekelemen.com/ for more
