The kind of person who refuses to address family dynamics, claims her messy divorce had nothing to do with their kid being a mess (they are just ILL). The kind of person who will drag their kid over the new media talking about them as "next Adam Lanza" and so on.

Is English your second language? I think you misread me. I said I find the diagnosis of PTSD, not the diagnosis of a disorder, to be very helpful.

Are you hoping to change the DSM-IV by talking about it here?

I don't know about you, but I trust my psychiatrist.

Yes, English is my second language

I am dealing with my own stuff by talking about it and at the same time I was trying to stirr a bit of philosophical discussion, since that what this thread was about.

I have no shrink to trust. Glad you trust yours. I trust myself. It took time to learn that, but it's totally worth it. And you know what? If I went to shrink in my country, they would call it Post-traumatic stress, sans disorder part. So maybe I do trust my potential shrink too.

Quirk? That totally trivializes it. My PTSD and PDNOS are definitely not quirks, they're disorders. I wish I didn't have them but I've learned to live with them .
You can call it disorder. I call my issues, including my bipolar a "quirk". People call it many different names (if you are interested read some of the discussions on Icarus project, interesting **** there). Everybody lives.
