Using the following definition to determine if the child in each case study has a mental disorder. If there’s not enough information in the case study, identify any other information you would need to determine if he or she meets the DSM-5 definition: A mental disorder is a syndrome characterized by clinically significant disturbance in an individual’s cognition, emotion regulation, or behavior that reflects a dysfunction in the psychological, biological, or developmental processes underlying mental functioning. Mental disorders are usually associated with significant distress or disability in social, occupational, or other important activities. An expectable or culturally approved response to a common stressor or loss, such as the death of a loved one, is not a mental disorder. Socially deviant behavior (e.g., political, religious, sexual) and conflicts that are primarily between the individual and society are not mental disorders unless the deviance or conflict results from a dysfunction in the individual, as described above.

C. Wright Mills implored us to use our sociological imaginations by connecting our seemingly 'private troubles' to 'public issues.' In this week's essay, I'd like you to reflect on a particular 'private trouble' in your life. However, instead of thinking about this trouble--as we so often do--at the individual level (e.g. 'It is my fault', 'This is my problem,' or 'I'm the only one that can fix this'), I'd like you to use your sociological imagination by connecting its cause to the more macro-level of 'public issues.' In short, what is the social, cultural, political, and/or economic roots of this 'private trouble'? Finally, how can we, as a society, work to address this 'public issue.'
