About this ebook:
Interessante thematiek. In het onderwijs worden we dagelijks geconfronteerd met meer en meer verschillende psychologische diagnoses van leerlingen. Geen leerling is meer 'normaal'.Waarom is er zoveel te doen over DSM-5, de nieuwe editie van het handboek voor psychiaters en therapeuten? Omdat de DSM de grens bepaalt tussen wat normaal en gestoord is, en DSM-5 die grens radicaal verschuift. Miljoenen normale mensen krijgen straks het etiket van een stoornis opgeplakt. Dit leidt tot onnodige, dure en soms gevaarlijke behandelingen van nieuwe ‘patiënten’ en heeft vele maatschappelijke consequenties, bijvoorbeeld voor verzekeringen, onderwijs, rechtspraak en toegang tot zorg.We leven in een tijd van diagnostische inflatie en overmedicatie, onder druk van met name de farmaceutische industrie. Medische ziektes worden verward met psychische stoornissen en diagnoses worden al te snel gesteld. Kinderen groeien op in een golf van ADHD en autisme en het is kennelijk niet meer normaal om af en toe droevig, druk, gefrustreerd of angstig te zijn – of een tikkeltje excentriek.Allen Frances schetst de geschiedenis en de ontsporing van de psychiatrie. Als insider beschrijft hij de excessen in de psychiatrische diagnostiek en geeft hij aan hoe de psychiatrie weer veilig en gezond kan worden.
