Psychiatry is not a real science because the "psychiatrists" admit they made up the DSM-3 arbitrarily without anything to substantiate it. The DSM-4 and 5 are a continuation of this unscientific process.

Turns out it’s quite hard to classify human behavior into treatable diagnoses and regimens.
Biggest problem with psychology is that most people with mental health issues don’t fall into neat little categories.
Most people’s issues fall into like a Venn Diagram of problems.
But alas, our insurance industry requires specific codes so that money can be shelled out appropriately.

No duh…. Only people that aren’t aware of this are mask wearing sheep which is a substantial amount of the population. Everyone knows anything to do with psychological science is absolute pseudoscience and book burning shall commence.

Real psychologists and such know that psychology and such aren’t true, hard, sciences. It’s like religion.
It’s a soft science. Closer to magic. You can’t exactly *get inside a person’s head* let alone *be* that person.

It isn't, really. We can observe very clear improvements in behavior in most people who are treated for mental illness. The hypochondriacs you find on /r/antipsychiatry are outliers, not the norm.

unlike other social scientists who often do flawed experiments or experiments without reproducible results, the psychiatrists who wrote the DSM-3 didn't do any experiments at all. It isn't science. Not even pseudoscience. Just fraud, lies, and deception. Also, when people do do actual psychiatry experiences, it exposes their fraud and deception. Such as the studies where they send a mentally ill person to multiple psychiatrists and they get wildly different diagnoses.

such as people taking medication for depression being associated with giving up lots of money for the rest of their lives.

You're both wrong and, like most people, would probably personally benefit from taking any meds

It could work but I doubt psychiatrists are even nearly smart enough to know what an inner product space is and it's quite a simple concept actually.

It's almost as if... Now stay with me. There's no current method to truly understand what's going on in anyone's mind, aside from asking them to describe it to you.

psychiatry has its place for true schizos, the issues stem from normal people treating them like priests for their mundane problems

No, all psychiatrists can do is keep on coming up with new names to call them while they try to convince them to get chemically lobotomized and sedated.

It's rigid nonsense that prescribe people poisions so they'll be rigid too.

'Depression' is a normal reaction to a system that steps on your rights and steals your money but they're not allowed to say that so they just give people drugs to keep them pacified. They'd be out of a job if we had a society of healthy property owners who weren't taxed, regulated and full of micro-plastics.

Then why are most people not depressed?

Okay. Did you have a response to anything I wrote or are you just sticking with the schizo gibberish?

Actually the DSM-4 and -5 threw out a ton of dumb shit in -3. That's like saying modern medicine isn't real because humors were a thing at 1 point.

the dsm 4 and 5 just further medicalised normal behaviour, like adding and expanding ADHD and various women related "diseases" like pre menstrual dysphoric disorder
it's hack "science" and functions more as tool of social control for neoliberal capitalism than anything else. it's purpose is to depoliticise society's effects on the individual
