Well, yes? If you're suffering from depression, you're going to get diagnosed with depression regardless of what's causing it. The psychiatrists aren't causing it, nor can they change it, and they can only treat the patient. So why are we vilifying health professionals for doing their job?

    I think its more the fact that psychiatrist help to move the burden onto the individual rather than approach the societal causes of the issue. That was my experience and it completely turned me off from seeing any mental health "proffesionals".
