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

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.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
