It makes me curious about how similar or different the new definitions are from the current ones.
Making the DSM must be a weird process. I tend towards the belief that they are trying to put things in discrete categories that just simply are not discrete! So it's no wonder it's difficult. It's not like measuring the bacteria in someone's urine and saying they have a UTI, you know? So much more complex.
