This was one of the more noble goals, but it was skewed as well. There are now too many mental disorders to shuffle through in the books, and the symptoms drag on and on. It’s almost impossible for a psychiatrist to scan the manuals to help diagnose a patient in a meeting. The DSMs never take into account an individual; it’s always a group. The people in charge of creating the DSMs did it this way because it is easier to publish, but it leads to more problems about grouping people until everyone…
