From Attendings
DSM-5
- Please buy the full DSM-5. Each diagnosis has good information on how to differentiate between disorders with similar symptoms.
Interview Guide for Evaluating DSM-5 Psychiatric Disorders and the Mental Status Examination
- by Mark Zimmerman
- This book has questions to ask patients to get the criteria for disorders. The pages on borderline personality disorder and bipolar disorder are excellent.
Medication Fact Book binder
- by Daniel Carlat
- The resident workroom has a copy of this book. It is much more efficient with less biased information than other books, notably Stephen Stahl.
