A new DSM
Dr. Helen tells us the new bible for diagnosing the crazy is out. Seems to be a continuation of the field’s trend to classify normal behavior as some sort of condition (to be treated, of course). The Doc notes it is written by a few, in secret, and with little oversight. What could possibly go wrong?

Yeah, professionals who get money by treating people need to expand their revenue stream in these harsh economic times.
Kind of like people who treat people who drink. they made a list, years ago, and if you answered “yes” to half of them, you were considered a candidate for treatment.
Now, just one yes answer gets you in the detox center.
