How Psychiatrists Decide Who’s Normal

How Psychiatrists Decide Who’s Normal is a very interesting interview with Dr Paula J Caplan Ph D who knows that the psychiatric industry certainly doesn’t have all the answers.

Transcribed from the interview:

We focus on what are really the consequences of horrible social forces and we say lets look at this persons internal, individual, psychological problem. And that doesn’t mean that a therapist or group might not be able to help somebody like that, but it means there is no prevention going on anymore…
