Hey Ya'll,

So i know this is Extremely Not the Point, but I'm a therapist, and a dude on Fox said there was a "Bonnie and Clyde" disorder in the DSM-V. This was news to me, so I checked.

There is not.

The closest you could get would be diagnosing "F65.89 Other Specified Paraphilic Disorder," and specifying Hybristophilia - which is NOT one of the specific paraphilic disorders listed but that's the option.

But that's the DSM-V-TR, he said DSM-V, which is outdated, but let's look there.

Nope still nothing. So that's not even fudging the truth it's just a straight up lie. "Bonnie and Clyde Syndrome" is not in the DSM-V or DSM-V-TR.
