Every time anyone ever says anything
goofy, the other person always says something like "You need
to see a shrink, or do you need a ride to Green leaf?" These
are all a stereotype of psychiatrists and their patients.
But the truth is, this is a very mentally and emotionally
beneficial career. Come on, and let's see if this is the job
for you. A psychiatrist is basically a
physician for the human mind. A lot of people are born with
mental disorders that may make them depressed, stressed, or
even crazy. A psychiatrists job is to help them fix their
problems and keep them under control. They might use
medication, surgery or even counseling sessions.
Psychiatrists work basically in the process of analysis.
They break the persons case into parts, examining it to find
the root to the problem. This lets them go into the ,major
cause of these feelings that may hurt the patient. They also
may work in a lab researching these diseases to make more
medicines, and try to find the causes of these mental
illnesses. They could work in a hospital to help people who
have been through traumatizing experiences. They talk to
them so they can work them through it to prevent any further
psychological damage. You might even work in a private
practice. This is how most psychiatrists work. This is were
they work in small clinics were they do most of their
counseling. They may also prescribe small doses of
medications like Prozac, Luvox, or Ritalin. These medicines
help balance things in the brain that cause these illnesses.
The third kind of employment is to work in an institution.
This would be in a place like green leaf, or maybe a
rehabilitation center. To be a psychiatrist, you must have a
very good education. This requires a post-graduate degree in
psychiatry, psychology, anatomy, physiology, chemistry, and
biology. After you have gone through his extensive training,
you can start. If you are, interested in related
