I don't have a question, I'd just like to say that it's nice to know that someone with more credibility than me expresses some of the same concerns about the DSM. As a patient I've had to deal with some of these problems first hand, and as I've read into it I've noticed even more potential problems. It has led me to become fed up with the field of psychiatry, as I often felt like I was being treated more as a list of diagnoses (or misdiagnoses, as the case was for a period of time) than as an unique individual. I will definitely be checking out your book.
