Psychiatry

The scientific term for being sexually attracted to firearms is "agalmatophilia," which is a type of objectophilia where individuals develop a sexual attraction to inanimate objects.

Sigmund Freud did not have his sons circumcised because he believed that circumcision was a harmful and unnecessary practice. He thought that it could lead to psychological and physical harm for the child. Freud's decision was influenced by his views on sexuality and the body.

It all depends. If the amnesia victim is suffering from amnesia that has erased their entire memory, all the way to when they were named, it is possible. It all really depends on the amnesia "time slot" as well as when that person figured out their sexual orientation.

Hope that answered your question. :)

Psychiatry is a medical specialty focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental disorders. It involves an understanding of both physical and psychological aspects of mental health. Psychology is a separate field that focuses on understanding human behavior and mental processes through research and therapy.

Carl Jung (1875-1961), Swiss psychiatrist, was the father of analytical psychology. Jung thought that people share collective unconscious, appearing archetype, including mythology, and symbols and patterns that appear in dreams. He also theorized that there is a female element in the unconscious of men -- the anima -- and a male element in the unconscious of women -- the animus. Jung believed that extroversion and introversion with four functions (thinking, feeling, sensing and intuition) were integral in the study of personality types. The aim of individuation is wholeness, through the integration of unconscious forces and motivations underlying human behavior. During it, the human "I" (Ego) deals with Persona in conscious, and faces the Shadow, Anima/Animus and Self archetype in unconscious.

Psychiatry may be defined, controversially, as the branch of medicine that, with the inexplicable collusion of psychology, has appropriated the part of its subject-matter which comprises psychological problems. Psychology is variously defined by psychological organizations, for example the British Psychological Society and the American Psychological Association, and by compilers of dictionaries.

Psychology is the scientific study of behavior and mental processes while psychiatry is a branch of medicine. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who provide both medical and psychological therapy treatments.

Psychologists can counsel patients, as can psychiatrists, but only psychiatrists can prescribe medicinal drugs and therapy treatments.

Psychiatrist - Some one who has earned MD and has taken general medicine. Can prescribe medicine. After MD has to have residency training for 4 yrs. Deals with mentally and emotionally imbalanced people.

Psychologist - Studies for 4 to 6 yrs about animal and human behavioral perceptions. Cannot prescribe medicine. Works tangently with psychiatrist to analise patients. Also has to hav 2-4 yrs of training under professionals.

Clinical psychology and health psychology are not entirely separated fields of research or practice. Nonetheless, clinical psychology focuses on the causes, prevention, and treatment of abnormal psychological disorders, while health psychology focuses on the causes, prevention and treatment of physical disorders that are impacted by psychological processes.Health psychology grew from clinical psychology as a sub-specialty. It has previously been known as behavioral medicine. How people respond to the dissemination of health education, how they make decisions about harmful behaviors (e.g., smoking or drug use), how they manage complex diseases (e.g., diabetes), how to impact psycho-physiological disorders (e.g., essential hypertension or psychologically induced urticaria), and how to reduce stress that exacerbates physical disorders are instances of the foci of health psychology.A related field that has emerged over the past couple of decades is psycho-neuro-immunology.

Actually, most licensed psychoanalysts, mental health counselors, and psychologists receive training in techniques for stopping intrusive thoughts. In the mental health field, this area has been getting a lot of attention; some doctors believe the condition is related to obsessive-compulsive disorder, but not everyone agrees with that assessment. I enclose a link to a site with some techniques you can try on your own. If these are not successful, by all means seek out a licensed practitioner.

A theoretical assumption is an underlying belief or proposition that forms the basis of a theoretical framework or model. It guides the development of hypotheses and predictions, serving as a foundation for constructing explanations and understanding phenomena within a particular field of study. These assumptions may not always be directly observable but are essential for shaping research and advancing knowledge.

In psychiatry, the term unremarkable typically means that there are no significant or unusual findings in a particular aspect of a patient's mental health assessment. It indicates that there are no notable abnormalities or concerns in that particular area.

False

First, you must understand that before someone can consider the field of psychiatry, they must first be a medical doctor. Most 4-year campuses can provide the coursework for pre-med, and the tough part is deciding which medical school is in your budget.

Second, there are many different areas to subspecialize in psychiatry. While getting the medical doctor degree, you would need to figure out which specific set of ideas you want to follow and what institutions will offer what you need. Many times the choice of schools or programs is based on the advice of a teacher you admire.

Third, it isn't really the school, but what you put into your study, what professors take an interest in you and what you, yourself, get out of your instruction and put to use in the "real world". Just because someone goes to Harvard or John Hopkins doesn't mean that they will be any good to the people who need the help.

doctors wear uniforms because they want people to know who they are

I'm sure most all do whether they will give it to you or not is another matter.

Sure, have you?

All the time they want, it goes with their outrageous fees, it's everything the way they want it.

Electroconvulsive therapy was first introduced in 1938 by the duo of Italian neuropsychiatrists Ugo Cerletti and Lucio Benni. It was a widespread form of treatment throughout the 1940s and 1950s.

1. Depression pills

2. Tranquilizers

3. Benzos(klonopin, xanax, etc...)

4. Sleeping pills(seraquel, trazadone, etc...)

5.clonodine (blood pressure pill)

they are pretty much the same except a psychiatrist can prescribe medications while a psychologist can not.

Yes, they are the same. Severe depression is also called "major" depression. The differentiation is with bipolar depression. That depression is the depressive cycle of the illness. Clinical depression is more prevalent in women. While there is no research-based reason for this, in my opinion it is because research has shown that women are more emotional than are men.

Schizophrenia is a psychotic disorder, not a personality disorder. However, there are some personality disorders that have similar symptoms to schizophrenia: paranoid personality disorder, schizoid personality disorder, and schizotypal personality disorder.
