Classification System
§ Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental
Disorders (DSM-5-TR), 2022
“A mental disorder is a syndrome characterized by
clinically significant disturbance in an individual’s
cognition, emotion regulation, or behavior that reflects a
dysfunction in the psychological, biological, or
developmental processes underlying mental functioning.
Mental disorders are usually associated with significant
distress or disability in social, occupational, or other
important activities. An expectable or culturally approved
response to a common stressor or loss, such as the death of
a loved one, is not a mental disorder. Socially deviant
behavior (e.g., political, religious, or sexual) and conflicts
that are primarily between the individual and society are
not mental disorders unless the deviance or conflict results
from a dysfunction in the individual”
