Hello everyone!

I just came across this article about bipolar children, which also tells a little story about how the 'new' DSM came about...If you ever wanted to blame someone for the desensitised approach of most psychiatrists, that will give you a name..!

Take care
Thanks for this!

I liked it. The rant about the DSM is exactly what I think, especially diagnosing children. I should have suspected somebody with a "bad" mother developed it. It's always the mom's fault. Just ask Freud...lol.
