Okay...
The DSM is a deluded attempt from a (rightly) qualitative field to disguise itself as a hard
science by organizing hopelessly vague and unfounded ideas into something with the appearance
of empirical knowledge. Of course some of it is helpful as a field guide to those "big" conditions
that are already validated by collective experience, but it's mostly misguided, arrogant,
autocratically minded, misleading and useless if not harmful nonsense. It is really only here for aesthetic,
self-validating purposes and has almost no value as a scientific or therapeutic text.
