The DSM-IV in my opinion is completely correct. We read an article today that completely demolished the idea of even having this DSM-IV. Having a book that defines psychological disorders is only beneficial to the people who sincerely believe they have something wrong with them. Having experts who specialize and diagnose these disorders only helps eliminate false diagnosis.
Even though I agree with the DSM-IV, the new psychological disorders going into the new DSM-V in 2013 are a bit absurd. a binge eating disorder? Hypersexuality? Are they serious? This book needs to become serious and literal. I believe that the disorders they are adding to the book are repetitive and are just branching off of each other. I want to know what everyone else thinks. Do you think that these are legit disorders and they should be treated or if they are just explanations for the problems people bring to themselves?
