Other Inhalant-Induced Disorders
The following Inhalant-Induced Disorders are described in other sections of the manual with disorders with which they share phenomenology: Inhalant Intoxication Delirium (p. 143), Inhalant-Induced Persisting Dementia (p. 168), Inhalant-Induced Psychotic Disorder (p. 338), Inhalant-Induced Mood Disorder (p. 405), and Inhalant-Induced Anxiety Disorder (p. 479). These disorders are diagnosed instead of Inhalant Intoxication only when the symptoms are in excess of those usually associated with Inhalant Intoxication and when the symptoms are sufficiently severe to warrant independent clinical attention.
