  • lol how much time you got? but if i had to say a psychiatrist is a quack doctor who must justify their medical credentials by handing out poisons for supposed chemical imbalances. no tests or mri's, just a reference to a book written by other psychiatrists paid handsome sums from the pharmaceutical industry. and once these drugs don't work or make make you go crazy, they don't want to hear it and give you more drugs. a psychiatrist is a fake doctor pure and simple.

  • Psychiatrists go to med school and then choose psychiatric residencies based on what I learned online.

  • I am from the Philippines,any school in America that gives scholarship grant?
