Television vs. psychiatry . . .

"Television has done much for psychiatry by spreading information about it, as well as contributing to the need for it."
       -- Alfred Hitchcock
 
Besides that, the commercials now advertise just about any medication to take care of those problems in addition to a multitude of others! Sadly, there are probably a lot of people who take the commercials for gospel, want to apply them to their ailments, and convince their doctors to prescribe for them. You have to wonder how many people actually need what they want . . . but, then, that could apply to just abut anything in our lives!
