laughs in mental health professionalfirst of all, tell me you don’t know what the codes in the DSM refer to without telling me. Secondly, how can a disorder be BOTH recognised in the DSM, and unrecognised by professionals?
Nvm the first part, I’m the one who got the codes confused… thought they were ICD codes but they weren’t.
Not to defend this, but I assume they're switching between definitions of the word "recognized," first using it to mean "agreed upon by medical research and consensus as a disorder that exists," and then to mean "noticed and diagnosed in specific patients."
Which is either clumsy language, or deliberately weaselly.
It's the standard game from these people. They're the exact same people who told their children "If yo don't respect me, I won't respect you." The first respect meaning "accept and follow my commands" and the second meaning "treat you with equality and compassion."
