DSM

The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, Text Revision, abbreviated as DSM-5-TR, is a diagnostic and taxonomic reference book published by the American Psychiatric Association.

It is colloquially known as the DSM. EAPM suggests to use the title without the edition number, unless necessary to the story, with the abbreviation immediately following, with an explanation of what the DSM is and its purpose on first reference. On second reference, use DSM.

First reference examples:

• Dr. Ryle Johnson said the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, abbreviated DSM, a reference book used for diagnosis by psychiatrists, was needed in proving the symptoms seen were not psychiatric, but likely neurological in nature.
• Researcher and self-advocate Bennie Brooke said the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, Text Revision (DSM-5-TR), a diagnostic reference book produced by the American Psychiatric Association, has made vast improvements in the description and treatment of many conditions from previous editions.

All second references, simply write DSM. Example:

• Brooke said the DSM still has a long way to go to stop medicalizing patients in a way that often strips them of their humanity.
