What is the difference between borderline Autism and Atypical Autism? Do people with these find it more difficult to get a diagnosis?

Psychologists and psychiatrists are either 'lumpers' or 'splitters' and sometimes one or other is in vogue. At the moment the lumpers are in the ascendant, which is why the current trend is to diagnose everyone with ASD/ASC. If the splitters were on the up we would be back in the realms of Asperger's, high functioning autism etc. etc. Of course, they would come up with new names!

I do understand some people on the spectrum require more support than others and areas of difficulty or how they are effected by different traits can vary?
