In reply to exactly what do these psyciatrists get paid for?, posted by denise1904 on August 19, 2004, at 14:25:18
hello there, chemist here....i was going to reply earlier but wanted to see what rolled in. my personal opinion is closest to that of waki. more specifically, in answer to your question, my psychiatrist gets paid more or less to write prescriptions. period. as much as i like him, i like my less-expensive and more-frequently-seen therapist just as much. all parties are satisfied, and i have signed consent forms for open communication between psychiatrist and therapist. there is more than a small degree of my having steered the situation in the direction it now lies: i have had my share of bad experiences, on both medication and personal levels, and have tried to identify the right people with whom i can work. i am keenly aware that, when all is said and done, i am *not* running the show, but i did assemble the cast and crew. i wish you (and all others) well, and all the best, chemist
