DSM-IV/TR (psycho-bible) was written prior to widespread use of internet and poser, but
DSM-V (in progress) will include both substance addiction and non-substance addiction.
they may avoid freudian/subjective terms (e.g. creativity) in favour of statistical analyses
(e.g. effects associated with drugs affecting neurotransmitters).  resistance to neuro-psychiatric
methods may have been formerly known as "reaction formation", but they are trying to
deprecate that to a less negative interpretation.  they are trying to develop a quantitative
model of human brain function using scientific methods and apparatus.
