A BIT OF PHILOSOPHY AND HISTORY
From DSM III to DSM5
Sought to make Diagnostic Categories.
Platonic Idealism
Generally, even complex diagnoses are considered against
an imaginary ideal/perfect case for a diagnosis to be made.
From DSMIII to DSM-5 the Chinese Menu approach to
diagnosis remains.

ANXIETY IS MUCH HARDER TO TREAT
THAN DEPRESSION
Because although SSRIs are good for both – Anxiety sufferers more often have side-effects. Generally thay can make the patient feel worse before
they get better. There are subtle differences between drugs in the same
categories Mirtazepine and Seroxat have a special role in PTSD Seroxat has a special role in OCD
