Problems with "iffy" diagnosis...new DSM

[911RN]

This article describes the difficulty I touched on just recently when you have a child that does not fit a particular diagnosis or criteria for diagnosis. With the new DSM guidelines....seems like with lowering thresholds it WILL REALLY MUDDY the waters even more. "Won't even be able to spot a supermodel on the catwalk"...kinda sad but true, it seems.
