Episode Notes

Are we diagnosing people with mental illness who are experiencing completely normal symptoms? If so, where did the DSM go wrong? How is this hurting the mental healthcare system, and what can we do to fix it? Today's guest is Dr. Allen Frances who was part of the DSM-4 committee and wrote a book about some of the issues we face today such as fad diagnoses and much more. He discusses these topics in this episode and helps us find some solutions.
