So because it was reclassified as a mental disorder instead of a disease, they cured all of the symptoms?

Umm, the DSM relates to mental disorders, what I'm saying is that Asperger's isn't an officially recognized mental disorder anymore, it was consolidated into autism spectrum disorder.

Then no, you're just wrong. It's very clearly still listed in 2015's ICD-10 as a disease, and the DSM didn't actually remove it; just rebranded it a Social Communicative Disorder.
