I am simply saying the rigor of psychiatry is far below many other medical fields. Therefore, we can not expect as many advances in treatment like in other fields. The etilogy of AIDS by the human immunodeficiency virus was uncovered in less then about 8 years .... 8 years! Yet we still only spectulate on the causes of depression after 6 decades. The irony is up to 10% of of society suffers from depression .... which can be a deadly disease ... and less than 1/10% suffer from HIV/AIDS. Some of the most effective treatments such as ECT, TCA meds, MAOI meds have been around for 50 years. Advances will be made ... but at a slow rate as we suffer.

I say let the neurologist treat us!

And you can't argue when many pdoc admit themselves they pursued careers in psychiatry because of the lifestyle.
