Psychiatry needs to catch up about 50 years on what it has ignored in advances in research by other related fields. Many mental health issues are secondary cause and affect from a primary undiagnosed medical issue. Psychiatry needs to become medical detective based rather than symptom treating based. So do doctors before calling in the Shrink.
IOW figure out what's going on because the wrong darn meds may be being used. Today's backbone of Mental Health? LCSW's and some psychologist. They are they actual ones doing one on on weekly in many cases interaction with the patient. The Shrink maybe once in three months in many cases and many resent the LCSW's and psychologist input.
The kind of resentment you’re talking about is universal. Found in any field of discipline—from doctors to teachers, construction workers to bloggers. Anyone who is a slave to their pride will resent another person telling them what to do.
It’s all over the place. The antidote is humility, and true humility has only one source.
As far as LCSW’s and psychologists being the backbone of mental health—I’ve heard of these kinds of therapists practicing necromancy during the session. Psychiatrists wouldn’t touch this kind of thing. And many if not most therapists impose on their patients Buddhist religious tenets disguised as standard therapy (known as “mindfulness”).
