The DSM manual is a guide to understanding the different disorders and issues that human beings have. It may not be perfect as we are studying the human brain and human behaviors constantly. If there was going to be any coverup I would think there would be no DSM manual and no efforts to truely try to help different people to understand their difficulties.
However there are different therapists out there that are not as good or poorly handle different patients. I know, I have met some unfortunately. However there are therapists that are actually truely interested in helping their patients overcome their issues. There are psychologists that study groups of individuals and have come out with information that has been truely helpful to many people.
I have PTSD and because it has been studied and recognized with array of difficulties in different patients I can get help, there is a human being that can tell me what I have. Had I not known that I have PTSD, I think I would be going crazy. It is hard enough to have the diagnosis I have and so hard to understand, but such a comfort to know I am not alone and there are reasons why I have such a difficult time.
KUREHA, be thankful that there are human beings that continue to study and research people who struggle so that you can get help and have someone that can understand your personal issues.
