Why are you offering that treatment?

You're a psychiatrist, you have no business talking about therapy.

And that, you know, I just have to tell people I actually sought out extra training in therapy.

And just because I'm not a psychologist doesn't mean that I'm not a therapist.

And I've had other people say, you're a pill pusher, you're a psychiatrist.

I can prescribe medication.

I went to med school.

It doesn't mean that's what I do the bulk of my day.

So I think some of these I have to let roll off my back.

And I think if someone really took the time to understand, they wouldn't have the negative comment.

Or I think sometimes people have been really scarred by experiences.

Maybe they had a negative experience with mental health professionals or they had negative experience.

Someone in their family had a mental health issue.

So I always think this person is coming from somewhere.

I don't know what it is.

I just want to be here and I'll answer questions if I can.

I think, let me think of how to best say this.

I have the belief that we really do see the world because of experiences throughout our lives.

And a lot of them we aren't even aware of anymore.

They're in our unconscious, but they've shaped how we go about interacting with people, how we see things.
