There is an article in the April 2010 issue of Scientific American magazine titled "Faulty Circuits" that is the type of thing that really triggers me. Although at one point the author mentions that a person's experience may have something to do with the development of "faulty circuits" virtually all the article is devoted to examining the circuits, and he presents brain study as a replacement for psychology. One more way, as I see it, of presenting what may be a way to avoid examining how a person's experiences can lead to mental illness and dressing it up as "science". I see that so much in present-day mental health treatment. I have given up thinking of further therapy because I do not see anyone who is willing to look at my pain, preferring instead, apparently, to avoid theirs.

I actually submitted a Letter to the Editor on this article, but I don't know if that will have any effect at all. After all, brain science is so much more "scientific" than psychology!
