I am so NOT surprised that one of the issues would be the nagging feeling that disorders are created based on little evidence.
I recently have come across articles on other listservs about proposals being made to diagnose "bitterness" and "being in love" as disease processes and (you guessed it) medicating them, I think that a dramatic culling of disorders is due. But we won't see that happen, probably ever, or for a good long time at any rate.
