For more than 70 years, physicians seeking to diagnose mental-health conditions have turned to the 'bible for psychiatry' - The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (). Last updated in 2022, and published by the American Psychiatric Association (APA), the DSM sets out diagnostic criteria for a panoply of mental-health conditions, from autism spectrum disorder to substance-use and personality disorders.

A clear diagnosis can be life-changing. An accurate diagnosis can be life-saving. But I think acceptance of these labels and their positive aspects should live alongside healthy skepticism of the diagnostic system itself. Considering diagnoses within the sociocultural context in which they're derived can help us avoid turning these tools into weapons against ourselves. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM)-that thick clinical text that gives us our official mental health labels-is as politically influenced as it is clinical.

The DS1825+ supports expansion with up to two 5-bay DX525 units, offering up to 360 TB of raw storage capacity when fully expanded. This model is designed for businesses with high data requirements.
