The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) has been revised several times to reflect advancements in psychiatric research, clinical practice, and societal attitudes toward mental health. Each edition aims to improve diagnostic criteria, incorporate new scientific findings, and address emerging mental health issues. Revisions also seek to enhance the reliability and validity of diagnoses, ensuring they remain relevant and useful for clinicians and researchers. This ongoing evolution helps to provide better treatment options and support for individuals with mental health conditions.
