why hasn’t C-PTSD been added to the DSM? are there future plans?

it’s obviously a distinct and valuable disorder that is separate from PTSD. i don’t understand the reluctance.

I don't wanna link it because it's a pdf but search "finalizing ptsd in the dsm-5". There's a pdf published on the VA's website (va.gov).  It goes briefly into why cptsd wasn't included in the dsm-5. (short: cptsd continues to be viewed as a more extreme form of ptsd).
