By refusing to "diagnose" Biden, she is finally following the American Psychiatric Association's (APA) Principles of Medical Ethics, aka the "Goldwater Rule":
On occasion psychiatrists are asked for an opinion about an individual who is in the light of public attention or who has disclosed information about himself/herself through public media. In such circumstances, a psychiatrist may share with the public his or her expertise about psychiatric issues in general. However, it is unethical for a psychiatrist to offer a professional opinion unless he or she has conducted an examination and has been granted proper authorization for such a statement.
The American Medical Association has a similar provision in their code of medical ethics.
Of course, she violated this rule by "diagnosing" Trump. But, I'm not aware of anyone being disciplined for doing so.
Psychiatrists have an MD and are accredited and certified medical doctors who've graduated medical school and passed their boards.
Psychology is the "social science" PhD one. Just sayin'.
Doesn't make them wrong.
Szasz was an atheist and extremely well spoken on the problems within psychiatry. Really recommend reading "The Myth of Mental Illness" it was and still is a groundbreaking book.
No shit - my oldest friend in the world was always a happy, funny gal til she started 'counseling' because of her daughter's 'mental problems' due to the breakup of the marriage and the deadbeat dad abandoning his kid - before she was even a year old.
Add to that, the 1st husband was a sailor in the USN and only laid eyes on the baby once.
Now there are 2 more kids (with 2nd husband, also ended in divorce but not til the 2 oldest kids were grown) and one's a m-f tranny. They're all batshit crazy. We don't communicate any more except for Christmas and Birthday greetings.
This person has just made the case for stripping her own professional credentials.

AMA myst be linked with DOJ.
AMA is a leftist shithole.
What credentials? She's from Yale; they don't have any integrity or credentials.
Psychiatry is pretty fucking lame.
It's completely a subjective "science' and not based on actual tests.

This
Same as FBI doesn't just have a few bad actors but the issue is systemic, psychiatry is rotten.
If you got rid of the FBI, crime would decrease, if you got rid of psychiatry, mental illness would decrease.
See CCHR for info on what psychiatry really does, as opposed to what they say they do.
Especially when they classify obesity and alcoholism as mental disorders for purposes of disability benefits
It always blew my mind I could make a living drinking myself to death
And here I am fucking limping on a construction site everyday that I can.
"CCHR was co-founded in 1969 by the Church of Scientology and Professor of Psychiatry Emeritus Dr. Thomas Szasz"
