The 5 Axes • Mental Disorder • Personality Disorders and/or Mental Retardation • Physical illness or Medical Conditions • Psychosocial Stressors • Global Assessment of Functioning
The 5 Axes – An Example • Major Depression, 296.2 • No diagnosis • Type II diabetes • Family member was victimized in violent crime, trial is ongoing • 75 current; 95 past year.
Concerns re: diagnosis • Diagnosis involves interpretation-it’s not absolute and misdiagnosis occurs. • Labeling can have negative effects on a person’s self concept and self-esteem • Labeling and stigma can lead to prejudice and discrimination. • Provides a forum for an ever-expanding list of disorders. Increased pathologizing as opposed to seeing “problems in living.”
Benefits of diagnosis • Universality of diagnosis-we’re all talking from the same page. • Conducive to research. • Validation of the disorder for benefit of the patient/family, etc. • Validation of the disorder to justify benefits.
