There are no definitive markers as there are in medical science - at this point, the psychological diagnoses are still all statistically-based, human-made constructs. Not the exact science that medicine is closer to being.

The point is, it is NOT found in the DSM-IV-TR. The point being: There are some who believe it does exist, others that don't. It's inconclusive at this point as to it's true existence. http://townhall.com/columnists/CharlesKrauthammer/2009/11/13/medicalizing_mass_murder Does it exist? Do aliens? Something that isn't recognized fully as existing is not going to be convincing in a court of law.

In the 30 years I've been involved with the field, there have only been two editions (and I believe two small revisions). They have been working for several years on the next edition (Ed. 5) of the book (which still won't be out for years), and there is a Task Force which is evaluating whether to include vicarious trauma. So, it's certainly better for something to be in the DSM, but it's not an overnight thing - it takes many, many years, even just for a new edition to come out. Here are a couple of links to pdfs talking about vicarious trauma, if anyone is interested. http://tiny.cc/Mz1Lw http://tiny.cc/VDaaC I would have to hear the segment again, but my guess is that his bottom line was that this soldier didn't have vicarious trauma. If,instead, his big point was that there is no such thing at all, irregardless of inclusion in the DSM, then I would chalk it up to his not practicing psychiatry, and not being up to date on the field of trauma.

It's in the anxiety disorders section. I think I saw the segment you referred to, and he was talking about vicarious trauma not yet being in the book, not PTSD. But I know, all over the web, I see people using the concepts interchangably, so I understand the confusion. The concept isn't old enough yet to be in the book; they do a lot of research and incidence statistics before they decide to include something in the book - which isn't revised very often in the first place!

There is no such thing as secondary PTSD, as Krauthammer said. It was just more crazy spin to downplay the real Hasan and all that goes with him. I very first time I ever saw Obama on TV, I knew the guy had some issues with reality.

And the noqua-20 id doesn't always show up in the url but, as i noted in a reply above, Amazon assures us that we will still get credit. still, i'd feel more secure if the noqua-20 were always there. THANK YOU!!! It should work as long as you don’t open a new window.
