Comments in 2006

In addition to this article needing a catologue-ing to many other articles, there should be a mention about mirror treatments.

^^^ the mirror treatments mentioned in the previous comment is a common treatment method for dissociative disorders

Comments in 2014

As much as I appreciate a handy hyperlink to Satanic Ritual Abuse, I fail to see its inclusion on this page :P — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.159.122.75 (talk) 05:37, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The Satanic Ritual Abuse page has a section named Dissociative Identity Disorder and the guidelines for treating itcited in the page also include a section on this. Amousey (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 00:05, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

DSM-5

A page for Other specified dissociative disorder and Unspecified dissociative disorder is needed to replace DDNOS. DF is now a subtype of DA, Depersonalization disorder has been slightly renamed.

edits by Ssvelu

Ssvelu, about this dif and this one -- per my first reversion, the content is about a specific DD, namely Dissociative identity disorder. this article is an umbrella article about all of them; treatment of one of them is off topic. Jytdog (talk) 13:21, 12 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Editing The Section About Diagnoses

As I was reading through the wiki page about Dissociative Disorder in the diagnosis section I found it pertinent to add to the section in a vast majority of cases medical professionals are hesitant to jump to diagnosing patients with Dissosciative Disorder because it falls closely in line with other medical disorders such as depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic disorder.

There are problems with classification, diagnosis and therapeutic strategies of dissociative and conversion disorders which can be understood by the historic context of hysteria. Even current systems used to diagnose DD such as the DSM-IV and ICD-10 differ in the way the classification is determined.^[1] In most cases mental health professionals are still hesitant to diagnosing patients with Dissociative Disorder, because before they are considered to be diagnosed with Dissociative Disorder these patients have more than likely been diagnosed with major depression, anxiety disorder, and most often post-traumatic disorder^[2]

Chhuv, the changes you want to make have all kinds of problems. They duplicate content that is already here, the citations are wrong, and you refer to "you". Please stop edit warring and talk. Thanks. Jytdog (talk) 13:08, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
