Is there any reliable source for the disorders being considered for addition to the DSM-V? For disorders being considered for deletion? I know that the task forces were just created this year, and that the DSM-V is not slated to be published until 2012, but I haven't heard anything definitive besides that. There are similar articles arguing for this disorder or that being added (e.g., Obesity), and there is the appendix in the current DSM-IV-TR that describes symptom sets under consideration, but even these are dated in light of more contemporary concerns (e.g., Internet Addiction). Anybody have the inside scoop?
