Psychiatry is a bona fide branch and discipline of medicine and one must qualify first as a doctor before being allowed to specialize in the field. The field of Psychology, on the other hand, is riddled with frauds, charlatans and outright ****s.

It’s increasingly clear that what we think of as ‘the self’ is just brain chemistry.
