Mind you, I do like it they've related it to self criticism. Wow. Taken notice of how devastating it can be for people - as long as clinicians take it fully seriously.
I'm kind of uncomfortable in it being a separate diagnosis - could it not be tacked onto existing diagnosis with a code or something?
And. 5 or more days in past year? Hmm. You see, I have periods of self harming, when under a lot of stress, at intervals of several months.
I'm curious how that would figure. Looking at the criteria, it still would. Maybe I'd get the NOS. Hah. NOS all over, me!
Buuuut, they're putting it in Child and Adolescent Disorders. *bangs he.....* then again, maybe not! :P
What do us old fogies do, huh? Where do we fit in?
