What would you have to consider before diagnosing someone with an Axis II disorder over an Axis I disorder?
Before diagnosing someone with an Axis II disorder (such as personality disorders) over an Axis I disorder (such as mood or anxiety disorders), it's essential to consider the individual's symptom duration and stability. Axis II disorders typically involve enduring patterns of behavior and inner experience that deviate markedly from cultural expectations, while Axis I disorders often present with more acute symptoms. Additionally, the impact of the individual's symptoms on their functioning and relationships should be assessed, as well as any potential overlap or comorbidity between the two axes. A thorough assessment is crucial to ensure an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan.

A bagel cutter isn't necessary to cut a bagel, but it can be slightly safer than simply using a knife. This may be important for someone who has poor motor skills, such as an elderly person or someone within a neural disorder, but less so for someone who is young and coordinated.
