Stockholm Syndrome? Is It a DSM?

Psychologists started studying Stockholm syndrome in the 70s and there are cases that seem to complicate or challenge this trend. I think of it as being more not even hugely extreme, but at a more extreme end of the spectrum of human behavior than we normally inhabit. It seems like something that makes sense psychologically is something that people would do under these sets of circumstances where we've observed it. The Patty Hearst saga went on for years because she was kidnapped on February 4th, 1974. She was 19 years old,. Think about being 19 and then think about being kidnapped and think about those two things happening at once.
