Autism Spectrum Disorder and the DSM-5 by Barker and Galardi

The reading on Autism Spectrum Disorder and the DSM-5 by Barker and Galardi discusses the demedicalization of certain behaviours, that will no longer be considered under the autism diagnosis. Additionally, the PEW data point to a demedicalization (sort of) of marijuana, in that society is more likely to accept it as a harmless drug. Can you think of any other behaviors or conditions that could be demedicalized? If so, what would be some of the contested issues, and who would the stakeholders be?
