Why Psychiatry Cannot Survive in the Private Sector
“We don’t know the causes [of mental illness]. We don’t have the methods of ’curing’ these illnesses.” Rex Cowdry
Former Director National Institute of Mental Health
When the U.S. Justice Department reported in 1985 that psychiatrists comprised a disproportionately large percentage of crooked physicians, psychiatry was ready with its excuse. A February 1985 article in the American Journal of Psychiatry said, “Psychiatrists may also cheat more than other doctors because they find the benefit system particularly unresponsive to what they consider to be their fiscal due.” In 1995, a Wall Street Journal headline read, “High Anxiety: In the Name of Freud, Why Are Psychiatrists Complaining So Much?” Another leading paper reported, “The nation’s shrinks are depressed.” The reason, psychiatrists claim, is because they are being “unfairly” discriminated against and their incomes limited with managed care. What they fail to see is that they are responsible for their own woes. Psychiatry knew it had nothing to offer when it began to demand government appropriations. The demands were made because it had learned it could not survive in the private sector. Individuals seldom pay, year after year, for “therapy” which yields no improvement or leaves them worse than before they came.
