This paper consists of the following three aspects. First, it describes the author’s personal understanding of the developmental disorders. In clinical situations, we call the condition where congenital characteristics of developmental disorders and relational difficulties manifested in daily life overlap. The author calls it “developmental disorders plus”. Next, the paper captures the concept of “earnest living” as a continuous image of someone tirelessly, often patiently, and vibrantly lives today, by just believing in tomorrow. Based on these ideas, it discusses the developmental disorder from the viewpoints of “reason of life” and “precious existence (seen by other people)”. Finally, the paper examines the patients’ supporters as someone who “earnestly protect” the ones who “earnestly live” from relational difficulties.
