Are you pro or anti psychiatry?!


Question: Are you pro or anti psychiatry!?
Do you believe that you are really being helped by meds and therapy!? I have mental issues which makes me incapacitated without meds!. I don't know where I would be without them!. Some people believe that all can be cured with a change in diet and leave psychiatry out of the loop!. I don't think that's true maybe for some mild disorders, but for complex ones I really doubt a change in eating habits will help!. So all in all I support psychiatry and all the advances it has made in the past hundred years!. How about you!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
