But most of what gets out in the media is BS from what I can tell. Not to mention the whole system is corrupt why would the medical field including psychology be left out?

Either way not everyone is mentally ill, unless they have an issue that significantly impairs functioning its not a mental illness...that is how it works. Sure everyone feels depressed sometimes for instance, not everyone has a depression disorder. The pharmaceutical industry does like to push drugs, so of course they will try to have some influence within the medical field(not that I agree, I think its a terrible way to go about things). Not to mention the point of prescribing medications should be to make people feel better, not make a profit and yet some people are forced to and/or pressured to take medications that make them feel worse.

I actually do pay attention.
