On the one hand, I think its unfortunate that psychiatrists don't get more funding in the UK. On the other hand, it sounds as if lower-cost, but probably very important, services are emphasized. Look at the US. Shrinks here have adopted the bio-bio-bio model of mental illness, although they often refer people for therapy (especially if there are some therapists/counselors in their practice). Is there any evidence that people with mental illness of any sort--especially the more severe disorders--do better over here than in the UK?

Given psychiatry's track record and the limited tools they bring to the table, maybe limited funding is appropriate.
