Absolutely.

I think psychiatry is our best way to understand who we are as people.

It looks at our biology.

How does our brain work?

How does it connect the parts with one another?

How does the chemistry in it work?

It's the very foundational aspects of who we are, and then it manifests as psychology.

What do we think?

What do we feel?

What are our strivings?

What are our fears?

So I think psychiatry provides tools that we can use to help each other, but those tools come through it being a discipline of understanding.

I think I'm trying to.

I think we should learn, we should be able to take something away from everything we do, every interaction to some small degree.

Yeah, even if you just reinforce sort of gentle kindness and gratitude and decent human interaction, there's a reinforcement of that, that even if we don't take away memories or lessons, so to speak, we can reinforce who we choose to be.

Yeah, because everything we understand about anyone or anything else is coming through here, right?

So yeah, we're understanding others.

We're also understanding ourselves.

It's all feeding through us.

I mean, I think to some degree, to some degree.
