...you are a fool. I have yet to meet a psychiatrist who was on the right side of the bars, have wondered for years whether it is cause or effect: that is... does the study of psychiatry attract lunatics or produce them?
if anything, your posts cement the need for psychiatrists because you're nuts.community college
A good psychiatrist won't be telling you anything. A good psychiatrist will help you realize what you need to do on your own with simple guidance and asking the right questions and saying the right things.
A good psychologist does this. A good psychiatrist spend 15 minutes with you instead of 10, and gets your prescription right![]()

srsly, I can't believe how many people fail to distinguish between the two.
if there's a physical/biological cause for the mental illness then a physical thing (like a pill or shot) can often help tremendously.I know the difference between the two.
I was just saying that a good "mental health" doctor worth his salt will actually give you mental health treatment instead of trying to cram pills down your throat.
I have a hard time believing that you can cure a mental disease with physical things (like pills).

I don't doubt that. But a psychiatrist sitting on a couch can't make that call.
A doctor could though.
a psychiatrist IS a doctor. a psychiatrist has been to medical school and can write prescriptions.
I've seen a psychiatrist and psychologist in my life. Psychiatrist = waste of time in my experience... the psychologist actually did help me to an extent... but it was really just me me who helped myself in the end. All psychs can do is help you understand your problems, they won't/can't magically wave a wand and make everything go away...
I know, but I've heard of too many cases where psychiatrists just put someone on a perscription with no real tests being done, no real actual mental evaluation, etc.
It sucks, but it happens.

a psychiatrist is a psychologist with a prescription pad... he's just got one more tool in his pocket. if the psychiatrist was a waste of time it's because HE sucked, not because psychiatrists suck.I've seen a psychiatrist and psychologist in my life.
