Psychiatry Pseudoscience?
#2
Excellent topic!

I have to admit, this one feel extra 'dark' to me.  The idea of a confidence games being played on patients always creeps me out... it feels no longer wise to consider that all doctors are honorable healers 'by default.'  Sad that.

I find it "thought-provoking' that a person living alone on a deserted island cannot be considered 'insane.'  'Sanity' and mental health are often mostly about 'others around you' and not really you. 

Psychiatrists, and their lesser ilk psychologist, are free to 'diagnose' all manner of 'mental' disease - often with little or no directly measurable physical evidence... that is a great deal of power, and thus engenders a great deal of wealth.  Such dynamics are easily abused.

I'll be back to comment further, thank you.  Thumbup
