alice-acid Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 I have read in various places that there has been some kind of change in the criteria for the diagnosis for HPPD or something along those lines in the DSM-V. Does anyone know anything about this? It's basically impossible to find the actual changes made anywhere but maybe i'm not looking hard enough, and i don't fancy actually buying it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onedayillsailagain Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Pages 565-566. DSM is nonsense; it doesn't even list DPD as a co-morbid disorder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merkan Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 Nice one, for us that do not have HPPD in our DSM (depending on country), this is really helpful when confronting the docs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 I believe the DSM section on HPPD is very lacking in thoroughness. HPPD is way more than in the DSM-IV. Have´nt read DSM-V, but it looks like it is a bit longer in it´s description but still too little about it. I live in Europe and they use the ICD-10 that does´nt list HPPD. I have tried to tell doctors to look in the DSM-IV, but they seem sort of indifferent when I mentioned it. The only exception was my GP who looked it up and gave me Keppra.

Fawkinchit Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Not sure if I understand the question properly but DSM will probably affect different areas of the brain than MDMA, Hallucinogens, etc. So yes the "criteria" may be different. By criteria I think you mean symptoms. They are somewhat varying in different degrees in all of us. Some have worse visuals, some have worse anxiety.
