To take that limited understanding and claim to get definte truths from that is what brought measels back to USA. Oh, wait, that should be another claim to be asserted.

May 10, 2011 at 15:08	comment	added	hooray		The definition from DSM-IV is vague. I couldn't find it in their website. The definition from DSM-V is still under revision, and it is about "chronic depression", not depression itself. May I conclude that depression won't be considered a disease anymore, when DSM-V comes out?
