It's soothing for people that believe in mental health, like religion for people that believe in afterlife.

Why pay someone to listen to you, when you already have us 4channers, op?
Save your money, bro

An extremely interesting subject. We are simply not there yet to understand neurobiology fully from a chemical and biological point, so psychology and sociology function the same way homeopathy/traditional medicine functions to modern clinical medicine.

It's absolutely necessary, but they can get things wrong or make it worse. It's also incredibly sad when you realize a lot of these conditions wouldn't present themselves at all if we didn't live the way we did. The stress, fear, despair, isolation, alienation, paranoia etc. of modern society can trigger episodes. And obviously a lot of these treatments can have horrible side effects, so even if you get the diagnosis right, it's a trade-off. Very miserable all around.

Jewish scam. Most people who deal with a psychiatrist ends up worse. Society suck, most people would be more healthy if we had a better society like we had in the past.

The only way to end up in the inescapable mental health care system is to talk to a psychiatrist.

There's an ass for every seat, and a diagnosis for every person. Don't let shekelberg determine you to be less than human

Ok but I want to be chemically castrated. My only other option is buying overpriced drugs from shady sources. You can't get these things over the counter unless you live in Thailand or something.

This.
They keep making up new diseases and disorders everyday and trying to diagnose normal people with them, all to keep you paying them for more sessions and more mind altering drugs. It's all an elaborate scam for pharmaceutical industries to flourish off of your hard earned dollar. Get a "doctor" to tell you you're insane and need pills, but in reality you had no real problems. All so they could also have a reputation with how many people they "helped"

Weakness is immoral.

Psychiatry is largely just a legal way to sell drugs. Psychology is useful information for figuring out your issues from your childhood trauma and your relationship with your parents. All people's mental issues comes back to their upbringing and fucked up parents. People that deny it are just overly egotistical about their narcissistic parents.

I can talk about this shit for days. Depends a bit on what you mean by "psychiatry." If you mean talk-therapy, then i'd say it's mostly bullshit. It's simply something women set up so they can get paid to pretend to be friends with and listen to the problems of other women. Which is also why talk therapy simply doesn't work on the overwhelming majority of men. Unlike women, men usually have real problems that can either be fixed or not be fixed, irrelevant of their own "mental state". Which is also why studies actually show that therapy simply doesn't work on incels, but of course the braindead psychiatrists conclude that the problem isn't therapy or the process or anything like that, but the patients are simply bad. I can't think of any other subject, let alone fucking medicine, where the patient is blamed for the doctor's wrongdoing. It's only in psychiatry they can simply make shit up on a whim and they'll nod along in their little circlejerk about how smart they are. It's like going to talk-therapy with a broken foot and blaming the poor guy for not having his foot magically healed when what he needs is clearly surgery to fix the foot.

If you mean psychiatry as a simply broad term for the study of the mind, then i'd say some psychiatry is more 'scientific' for lack of better terms than others. Things like neuropsychology, biological and evolutionary psychology obviously being more scientific, i'd say than other forms of purely theoretical psychiatry. Something i'm actually pretty sure is a phenomena within psychiatry, sociology and all those wishy.washy subjects is that when they try to actually prove any of this in studies they almost always simply fall flat and usually proves what most people already intuit and what high iq people can explain. Most of psychiatry, sociology and such are more or less simply midwit subjects for midwit people to circlejerk about being pretend smart while resenting actually intelligent people for speaking the truth.

Ive got psych problems and go once a month to an outpatient clinic of a local psych hospital to get an injection of anti psychotics, they made me horribly obese and turned my personality to that of a wet paper towel. but at least Im not getting arrested any more for doing weird shit while racking up thousands of dollars in credit card debt. I dont know if Im gonna stick to it long term though, im probably just gonna blow my brains out

I understand why people hate psychiatry but it objectively helped me with my issues, its not an ideal situation but what you gonna do, anything beats jail especially when youre getting arrested for totally cooky shit
