This new edition of the handbook, published by the American Psychiatric Association, gave a twist to the diagnosis of mental illness, with significant changes in their classification.

From the forensic field you can live a major revolution with a series of consequences that are yet to be seen. I analyze how these changes affect the field of Forensic Medicine in Spain, given that there has been a parallel shift in the other reference manual, ICD-10, and if the DSM-5 provides solutions or, instead, it leads to complicate the task of the forensic psychiatrist.
