Swipe..."One area she claims expertise in is autism.
In several posts, she makes references to having Asperger syndrome, considered to be on the high-functioning end of the autism spectrum. She also makes references to her son having the same developmental disorder.
While dispensing advice on handling anxiety five years ago, Harper purportedly wrote online that "I have Asperger's and I didn't do so bad. Wasn't easy (understatement) but it can be done."


...I'm wondering if she was actually diagnosed or self diagnosed. People will run with this autism stuff but autistic kids are all over the world and they don't have this problem with autistc or non-autistic people.
