Question: Why do people on the MH forum tell everyone to see a Psychiatrist!?
some of these people are children!.!.!. and it isn't safe to put a child on anti-depressants, and it isn't good for a person to be classified as mentally ill and on pills forever!. There are lifestyle changes that can help boost people's moods that don't have this kind of stigma attached to it, and there are simple things people can do to destress and get their mind off of things!. Why aren't other people besides me suggesting that!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

A psychiatrist will not necessarily put you on pills, (mine focuses more on talking through my problems to find solutions) and it's better for a person to be classified as mentally ill and getting help than suffering all their lives because of a fear of labels!.

People here tell people to visit psychiatrists because they acknowledge that they are not mental health professionals!. Yes, there are simple things that you can do, but sometimes they don't solve the whole problem!. I could have gone for as many walks and taken as many deep breaths as I wanted; it would not have fixed the chemical imbalance that caused my depression!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

tO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION, ONLY A GOOD PSYCHIATRIST CAN DETERMINE IF SOMEONE NEEDS MEDICATION, OR COUNSELING OR WHAT!. GOING TO A PSYCHIATRIST DOES NOT MEAN HE WILL AUTOMATICALLY GIVE HIS PATIENT MEDICATION!. BY THE WAY LOTS OF PEOPLE ARE MENTALLY ILL AND DO NEED MEDICATION FOR THE REST OF THERE LIVES AS THERE IS NOT A CURE FOR MENTAL ILLNESS!. Sorry for all the caps, I didn't realize they were on and I'm too lazy to do it over!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

because the rest of us arent idiots we arent pros!. we recommend them to psychs so they can check if they have a genuine medical condition which a lifestyle change cant fix, and if they dont the pysch knows what to recommend and if they do have a problem then they get it diagnosed earlier rather than later!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think its cause of the forum name, Mental (and these peoples mind set is; oh go that means they are nuts) typical stero typing!.
When all some people need is someone to listen or to just be able to vent out some emotions!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Psychiatrist try not put child on anti-depressants but if all does not work then they will have to thenWww@Answer-Health@Com
