DSM-5 Development - public comment period ends July 18

[Guest guest]

The DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual) is being updated and they are

looking at changes for OCD (such as taking it out of anxiety disorders, I

think). They've extended the public comment period so if anyone wants to have

some input into this, now is the time.

I'd heard they were looking at this months ago but just came across it again

today. Will have to read and see what comments I may want to make to them.

Here's the website links, main page and the OCD page:
