Scott, I was so twitchy yesterday, I was very reactive. Addition to intermittent anxiety about the CT scan, I drank some Peet's coffee (unusual for me), and then remembered being advised not to mix Emsam and coffee. I know folks do, but I should not count myself among them :-/

Lots of cardiologists never view the heart muscle with their own eyes once they enter clinical practice. This makes them no less adept at testing and imaging the heart as they treat it exclusively with drugs. Clinical psychiatrist are trying to keep up with the explosion of information being produced by neuroscientists and investigative biological psychiatrists. Thousands of brains have been examined post mortem. PET, MRI, SPECT, and other imaging techniques can resolve what the unaided eye cannot see. With these facts in mind, I don't believe it is valid to condemn psychiatry as being any less of a science than is cardiology. It is just that neuroscience must deal with an organ (the brain) that is perhaps the most complex structure in the Universe.
