The second part of that New York Review of Books piece on our prescription-happy mental health industry is available here. This installment is actually more alarming than the previous one.
Ya but.. some relief on the rise of autism diagnoses there? as in, maybe we're seeing a lot more of it because some people are getting paid to see more of it.
In fact, the second installment was so alarming, I stopped believing it. It starts to feel like she's cherry-picking the evidence for her argument. Though if even a quarter of what she says is true, it's bad enough.
The Illusions of Psychiatry? A bit grandiose a title, no?
@shudder It's a two-parter, it's the NYRB, and they're probably feeling like they have a rep to maintain after the Crews/Freud stuff? But yes. Grandiose is the word.
