I am trying to find an alphabetical list of DSM-IV diagnoses (not the definitions) plus numerical codes together, but have had no success. I have found a web site that is just the opposite: a numerical listing with diagnoses. Can you help me? (from an M.D.)

I would like to find out exactly what a chemical imbalance is. Is it actually an imbalance of the chemicals of the brain or is it just a term used for a mentally unbalanced person? If it is an imbalance of the brain chemicals, how is it diagnosed? Are there specific medical tests done to diagnose it?
