I think there needs to be an organization, call it "PD and Proud" maybe, to speak out about issues people with PD diagnoses face and the reality that we're human, too. Modeled on gay pride, maybe. And if the DSM does away with PD diagnoses eventually and replaces it with something more than just lists of symptoms, great. But for now -- we need to pull together and speak out ourselves. Problem is, of course, our issues -- call them PD's for now -- mean that's hard for us to work together sometimes.
