My psych, trying to put the best face on it, said that it was meant to be a reference tool rather than a diagnostic one, which is to say it was meant to make certain that everyone knew what the terms meant and were using them in the same way. He isn't always so generous....his general line, and my opinion too, is that they will not be satisfied until they have diagnosed everyone, flatlined us and sent us off into suburbia. But then he thinks all politicians are sociopaths. If you want to live in this world, it might be OK.
PJ, what's that about kids?
