Peggy, a 17-year-old female, was referred by her pediatrician to a child psychiatry clinic for evaluation of an eating disorder. She had lost 10 pounds in 2 months and her mother was concerned...At the clinic she stated that she was not trying to lose weight, had begun to sleep poorly about 2 months ago unless she had several beers, and that she and friends "got trashed" on weekends. Her relationship with her parents was poor; she had attempted suicide a year previously with aspirin and was briefly hospitalized. The day before this evaluation she had taken a razor to school to try to cut her wrists, but it was taken away by a friend. She admitted being depressed and wanting to commit suicide and finally told of discovering that she was pregnant 4 months earlier. Her boyfriend wanted her to abort, she was ambivalent, and then she miscarried spontaneously about 2 months after her discovery. After that, " It didn't really matter how I felt about anything." (Committee on Adolescence, 1996, pp. 71-72)

Criteria for Diagnosing Abnormal Behavior:

Statistical deviance – Does the person’s behavior fall outside the normal range of behavior? According to this criterion, a mild case of the “blahs” or “blues” would not be diagnosed as clinical depression because it is statistically common, but a more enduring, severe, and persistent case of the "blues" might.

Maladaptiveness – Does the person’s behavior interfere with adaptation or pose a danger to self or others? Psychological disorders disrupt functioning of daily routines and create problems for the individual as well as for other people such as partners or family.

Personal distress – Does he behavior cause personal anguish or discomfort? Many psychological disorders involve personal suffering and are of concern because the person might harm themselves or others.
