Needs less bias and more smut.

I really read the whole thing, so you’d better believe it’s going on my count for the year!

There are many forms of pain in the world, and reading this gave me more compassion for those who suffer.

There were an unusual number of typos in this edition, like “sprt” for “sort,” and other almost correct spellings, usually in the diagnostic category. While proofreading a book of this length can’t be fun, it’s also a pretty expensive and important tool! So, I hope the APA can address this.

Putting this on my goodreads bc I had to read this book for my royal college and I feel that’s an accomplishment. There’s lots of helpful info in this book and also lots of ambiguous information of unclear utility. Overall, could benefit from a friends to lovers trope

For aesthetic purposes only I will be marking this book as read. I hope to read the entirety of this poetic masterpiece one day. I was however, able to successfully diagnose my mom, dad, sister, and chihuahua. The latter being the most difficult to manage when it comes to behaviors and psychological needs.

God forbid I do not become a psychologist, I will be content with my current diagnoses. Hmu with diagnosis inquiries, but know I charge a hefty fee.

مفتخرم که بگم چون برای المپیاد مجبور شدم فصول باقیمونده رو بخونم، الان یه دور همه مطالب DSM-5 رو خوندم🤓

حالا بجز این‌ها، بعد از خوندن این چهارسال کارشناسی میتونم بگم به نظر شخصی من، دسته‌بندی آدم‌ها در قالب این مقوله‌ها اصلن فایده درمانی نداره؛ چون DSM یک جاهایی خیلی قراردادیه و درگیر این شده که به نیاز درمانگر توی تشخیص (لیبل‌ زدن) برسه نه رسیدگی به نیاز بیمار که ممکنه هر لحظه فرق بکنه. یک بیمار ممکنه وقتی پیش شماست توی اون ۴۵ دقیقه طیف گسترده‌ای از علائم و نشونه‌ها رو نشون بده و توی درمانگر باید به‌جای درگیر شدن در فرآیند تشخیص‌گذاری همه‌ی این علائم، سعی کنی هر لحظه نیاز همون لحظه رو پاسخ بدی.

good book. pretty dense. moderately engaging.

[Amanda Henkel Webb]

Yes, cover to cover. Yes, I am counting this as part of my 2024 reading challenge.

[Mira]

Genuinely recently read the entirety of the DSM like the ghoul that I am, and my best friends jokingly said I should mark it on goodreads, so here we are

Loved it. Very relatable. I think they wrote a couple of those chapters about me

[Shelby Hoovler · Rating 5 out of 5]

Listen, I read it, it’s a book, it counts. I rest my case 😌

crying knowing i’m losing my free copy

[Madisyn Leligdon]

Gotta add my textbooks from school to get to my reading challenge goal 🥸

[Everett · Rating 2 out of 5]

Fine as a log of medically recognized illnesses, not so great with their wording or sample groups. Very focused on the negative attributes of mental illness. A lot of the illnesses and the diagnostic requirements are skewed by majority male and white populations, and very difficult to get revisions on it. Good for hyperfixation, BAD for my mental health. All healthcare in america has been commodified as a luxury and a business instead of a right Fuck the American health system.

[Caitlin · Rating 3 out of 5]

i read/skimmed every disorder in this book and flipped through every page to tab it. so i'm counting it.

[Abbi · Rating 3 out of 5]

I actually did read this. It’s gonna count towards my goal.

[Jewel · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great summer read, 10/10 recommend. Shout out to the EPPP for recommending me this.

[Esmée Haring · Rating 5 out of 5]

A must read for anyone in the MH field!

[Willow · Rating 4 out of 5]

not enough spice

[Maycee · Rating 4 out of 5]

Such a fun read😍😍😍

[Hydee]

successfully passed my abnormal psychology course !! hooray !!

this was really useful for studying, especially the differential diagnosis section after every disorder, although i do hope that they revise some of these sections. the differences between bdd and some eating disorders; SAD and AvPD; and others weren't exactly clear.

will definitely come back to this as i take more advanced courses and when i take the boards (soon hopefully).

This was assigned as required reading for my Master of Social Work class, Psychopathology. I read the whole thing front to back, so it is indeed going on my Goodreads!

Overall logical organization. I appreciate the "life span approach" - i.e. starting with developmental disorders and moving into disorders that appear later in life. However, it seems to double back on its own rule by including early-life disorders in late chapters - i.e. ODD.

I found some of the organizations to be a bit lacking. For example, the Depressive Disorders and Bipolar and Related Disorders contain a few disorders which I think could be better placed elsewhere. That said, the DSM seems to be aware of these potential shortcomings and addresses them directly in the opening to each chapter.

Overall, a good read. I appreciated the ongoing encouragement to consider culture during diagnosis.

My Bible through college, and now uni!
I have consulted this book so many times…. An obvious necessity for anyone working in mental health services.
Will keep my copy even when it updates - for sentimental reasons; I ordered this manual with a gift card I won, after being the winning entry for choosing a name for a local mental health service. Seemed fitting to purchase this and use it to help support others in my role.

[Rita · Rating 3 out of 5]

2.5 stars, really. I mean... it's a problematic book. It is quite famously problematic. In my MSW program, we pretty much read the book cover-to-cover and had numerous tests, quizzes and essay assignments to be sure we understand it along with all of the literature explaining why it's a very problematic book.

[Ashley Covert · Rating 5 out of 5]

As a psychology student, I consistently apply my knowledge in every class. The latest version of the DSM, post all revisions by the American Psychiatric Association following the DSM-5, has proven to be extremely valuable in my studies.

[Amanda Tenison · Rating 5 out of 5]

Well, if you're in mental health, psychiatry, psychology or advanced practice, this is really a must have. I do recommend spiral binding it, and also buying some tabs off Amazon to help organize for quick reference.

[Naomi · Rating 3 out of 5]

Helpful, but man we need to do some work on how we conceptualize some of these "diagnoses." Some of these shouldn't even be diagnoses. Hopefully in its next iteration there is more cultural understanding.

[Jan S · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very informative overall but I feel we have still a ways to go with properly being able to characterise different syndromes and disorders.

Particularly the mention of spanking not being physical abuse was jarring to see when it is regarded as terrible in much of contemporary research.

[Erisa · Rating 4 out of 5]

Just read the revisions.
