Ive never seen one, and truthfully i dont think i do need to see one. I donbt have depression or am mentally unstable and I am not going through a huge crisis in my life, however I'm just mostly curious as to what its like and have a load i'd like to get off my chest. I come from an oldschool fam so their moto is just shut the up and deal with it. and i know alot of ppl like to come on here and spill there problems too a bunch of strangers on the internet but i dont see that as being therapeutic.
so let me ask what actually goes behind those doors? do you just talk to some person and everything you say they keep overanalyzing it like you see in tv? |

| Psychiatrists are overrated imo. Unless you have some medical condition that needs to be addressed, I think we can deal with most of our problems ourselves. |

Darlin don't go if you don't actually need medical help with your mental state
Honestly, I know two people who thought they had minor to deal with, and after seeing a psychiatrist they felt out of control and worse. It's not that the medical professional himself is going to damage your psyche, but going to see one is an outward signal to your subconscious mind that there is something wrong with you... and although you might be fully in control of your mental state at the moment - you might start to believe that there IS in fact something wrong with you.
Dump it on a friend, it's what they're for
Or on someone you don't know so well - sometimes that's easier
if everyone else tells you to STFU you can call me ;) |

i considered going to a psych. i'm a complete perfectionist and i had some obsessive-compulsive kind of habbits. instead, i decided to man up and deal with it myself.
problem solved!
i think if you have having severe depression, suicidal thoughts or other thoughts that really concern you, it is worth going to a psych. however, for everything else, i think it is best to avoid them. everyone has mental issues to deal with. i do not know a single person who is entirely mentally healthy, just as i do not know anyone who has god-like physical health. it's a fact of life. i think going to a psych breeds dependance, when most things in life really just take a bit of your own effort. |

No you don't. I used to date a psychologist and being 'analyzed for fun' is anything but.
Besides, most people don't really want answers to some questions. |
