While both the DSM-5 and ICD-10-CM are useful in aiding diagnosis and are often used together, the ICD-10-CM codes should be used as they are the official codes recognized by insurance companies and other healthcare systems. The DSM-5 is the primary manual used in the U.S. for mental disorder diagnosis, but the ICD-11 has not yet been widely adopted. Therefore, choice C is the most accurate answer.
