Diagnosis, Literature, and Legitimation

Andrew Gaedtke

Summary: This commentary addresses patterns in the articles of the special issue on Diagnosing America and discusses questions of legitimacy in the history of psychiatric diagnoses. Clinical diagnosis is a speech-act that recognizes and validates a patient's distress. However, the legitimacy of diagnostic categories has long been a concern, despite efforts to resolve controversies through successive editions of the DSM. The significance of these questions lies in their ability to shape the understanding and treatment of mental illness.

Polypharma Fiction

Beth Blum

Summary: This article explores how the use of multiple medications is changing the way contemporary novels respond to anxiety and its narrative interest. By analyzing the works of Sheila Heti, Ottessa Moshfegh, and Anelise Chen, the author examines how anti-anxiety and anti-depressant medications are challenging traditional assumptions about the relationship between mental suffering and aesthetics. Instead of focusing on the potential demise of the novel genre due to psychotropics, the article delves into the formal significance of these drugs in terms of narrative temporality, tension, and plot.
