I wonder about medication through psychiatry also. Seems like that is an underappreciated risk factor for some people, as many medications have side effects that are unpleasant and even harmful.
And might it be true that finding a good psychologist is like finding a good teacher is like finding a good guru is like finding a good investment advisor, there are a whole bell curve of possibilities and everyone is looking for the right tail?
Many of the medications just straight up don’t work either. I would say most of them. “Chemical Imbalance” is bullshit.
