Ever wondered how many symptoms make up all of adult psychopathology described in the DSM-5? It’s 628!
How many do you think repeat across multiple diagnoses? If you answered 231 symptoms repeating a total of 1022 times (median 3 times per symptom, range 2-22), good job!

ALT A plot of the repetition among the symptoms in the DSM-5 showing substantial overlap within and between chapters of diagnoses. 202 primary disorders and specifiers are represented, and diagnostic criteria have been split into a list of 1419 constituent symptoms. Each dot on the circumference is a symptom; its size represents symptom frequency. Lines linking symptoms map the repetition among diagnoses within and between chapters.

My research shows that a big source of burnout for DEI pros are liberal-ish white admins who act as DEI gatekeepers and police mostly Black & Brown DEI specialists. The liberal white delusion is that often the gatekeepers see themselves as in solidarity w/ the people they police.
