The concept of mental disorder, like many other concepts in medicine and science, lacks a consistent operational definition that covers all situations.” Diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders: DSM-IV.

Morally and legitimately, only a professionally trained psychiatrist, and some of the psychologists, can determine whether a person is suffered from a mental disorder or not. Three types of clinical diagnoses: Primary diagnosis – The mental condition directly leads to current consultation or visit to mental health facilities. Provisional diagnosis – The current manifestation only “partially” matches with the set of diagnostic criteria and the mental condition will be verified along with the reveal of essential information in the short coming future. Differential diagnosis – The mental condition shares a similar presentation with patient’s current manifestations of signs and symptoms. It can be made through hypothetical deduction. WHY OT APPLYING DSM / ICD ? SIDE-PRODUCTS OF DSM/ ICD Labeling Effect Sick Role Self-identity or behaviors The person “declared” to be determine/ influence by the sick is sanctioned to a role with “label” used to describe the certain rights and responsibilities person. Rights: To be exempt from “normal” Stigmatization social roles or expectations The disapproval, and sometimes To be not responsible for their discontent, of a person or a illness/ condition group based on the socially Responsibilities: deviated characteristics Have to try to be better Have to seek help from professional others, e.g. medical professionals.
