There's a lot of information available to us on the internet. This is true for any topic we might be interested in, whether it be about food, health, or even physics. But sometimes we'll come across something so obscure and unhelpful that we wonder if we might have just fallen down the rabbit hole without realizing it. I'm talking about medical and psychological disorders and diseases — things like Tourette syndrome, schizophrenia, or dyslexia. These are places where you can end up getting hopelessly lost as it's hard to know what to search for among all those potential classification options. Today I'd like to use my limited time to explore the most useful medical and psychological classification options for diseases that are often reported in the media. So let's start with some famous cases, shall we? My friend Anthony who has Tourette syndrome Tourette syndrome is a lifelong condition that can cause children to make unusual noises, bark like a dog, or even make jerky movements. These symptoms are classified under one of three headings in official bodies: simple tics, complex tics, or coprolalia. Now taxonomical systems are notoriously irreverent and this is why they are considered bad for communicating meaning in medical records. The main reason being that there are so many different ways to classify things. But even if your taxonomic system doesn't seem to have any clear-cut criteria, you can still find many, many doctors who use the same classification for tics. Should you try to study tics on Wikipedia? You might be surprised by how much reliable information is available there. Complex tics are divided into several sub-categories, including stereotyped movement disorder (SMD), complex tic, simple tic, and Tourette syndrome with motor or vocal tics (TS/MT). Where do the vocal tics cause problems? If you're lucky, then your throat will clear. But in the worst-case scenario, it could affect your speech. The most common behavioral or emotional problems associated with Tourette syndrome are insomnia, anxiety, depression, ADHD, irritability and aggression. Of course, this isn't true for all conditions, so let's move on to something else... How about schizophrenia? My schizophrenia story begins on April 23rd 1987 when I saw a psychiatrist who was familiar with drug use and addiction. Now I really wanted to tell him that I wasn't having any side effects from my medication but he interrupted me by saying: "Now we can make a diagnosis. You've got schizophrenia, depression, and polydrug addiction. " I was so surprised when he said the last word that I think I must have jumped out of my seat. But in fact, my diagnosis is kind of relevant to the argument we're making today. Because in my medical records — which was called a Hospital Casebook — we were actually using the medical differential diagnosis method instead of taxonomy to record and list all the possible explanations for my symptoms. cfa1e77820
