Where I work, many of the clients last had psych evals 20 years ago or more, and have diagnoses that don't exist now, such as "Immature Personality Disorder." How would that be, to have a dx that someone decides is not actually a disorder?

I don't think it should matter at all whether what one person has is a "diagnosis" or not.

What should matter(IMO) is how that person is coping in life and what difficulties they are having and then work on those coping problems and difficulties.

It's kind of sad how some people think that if they don't have a dx-- then they can't or shouldn't or aren't worthy of getting help...... I don't understand this cultural phenomenon?????

What is it with so many Americans and them wanting to have a diagnosis?? Wonder if other countries are similar?
