The Four Domains of Mental Illness presents an authentic and valid alternative to the DSM-5, which author René J. Muller argues has resulted in many patients being incorrectly diagnosed and wrongly medicated. Dr. Muller points out where the DSM-5 is mistaken and offers a guide to diagnosis based on the psychobiology of psychiatrist Adolf Meyer and the insights of existential philosophy and psychiatry. His model identifies the phenomena of the mental illnesses that clinicians most often see, which are characterized by identifying their structure, or partial structure. Using the FDMI approach, clinicians can grasp how each mental illness is an aberration of Martin Heidegger’s being-in-the-world.

René J. Muller, PhD, is the author of Psych ER: Psychiatric Patients Come to the Emergency Room and Doing Psychiatry Wrong: A Critical and Prescriptive Look at a Faltering Profession. He has been a regular contributor to Psychiatric Times, a peer reviewer for the annual U.S. Psychiatric and Mental Health Congress, and is a review editor for The Humanistic Psychologist. Dr. Muller has evaluated over 3,000 patients in the emergency rooms at Union Memorial Hospital and Good Samaritan Hospital in Baltimore, MD. He has a PhD from Johns Hopkins University and an MA from Duquesne University.
