the final diagnostic criteria for DID in the DSM V is not out yet.. will be out for public use in may 2013, .but in the rough draft they had on line at the dsm5 website it had some criteria's cant remember exactly but the treatment providers will need to fill out a form that tells which kind of seizures the person has/ its severity and how long the person has had the seizures. the website has removed both the rough draft for the DSM5 and the DSM IV TR criterion for each mental disorder so people can start getting used to not using past criteria and have an easier time beginning to use the new updated mental health criteria.. you can keep track of the DSM 5 at Home | APA DSM-5
Thanks for this!
