Title: More debate about the diagnosing of personality disorders
Post by: Dr. Richard Grossman on November 28, 2012, 03:16:09 PM

Hi everybody,

Here's an article from the New York Times, describing the ongoing debate about the diagnosing of personality disorders for the upcoming DSM (Diagnostic Service Manual):

"Thinking Clearly About Personality Disorders" by Benedict Carey (11/26/2012)

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/27/health/clearing-the-fog-around-personality-disorders.html

Included, of course, is a discussion of Narcissistic Personality Disorder.  Interesting to see that there are almost 300 comments on what would seem to be a rather esoteric subject!
