ISEPP Proposed letter to APA re: ethical quandary of using DSM 5 Action1 #463233 Excerpt:This places professionals in an ethical double bind. In order to work with people who choose to use health insurance benefits, the professional must provide a DSM diagnosis; a diagnosis known to be invalid and potentially harmful. If, on the other hand, the professional refuses to diagnose in order to avoid the harm, and precluding insurance coverage, then the consumer may not be able to afford badly desired help. http://bit.ly/2lonnXa
