What's Changed: Feeding and Eating Disorders
Story:
In the years since the publishing of the DSM-5, it was found that some cases of "Other Specified Feeding Disorder" were being misclassified as a result of the example given for "Atypical Anorexia Nervosa." It was unclear as written and led many clinicians to misinterpret the intent of the example. To remedy the problem, the DSM-5-TR example text was adjusted to provide clarity and flexibility in how the disorder would be diagnosed and classified.
