[Magdalen] Drug research.

[Sally Davies]

For me this is an interesting and helpful thread, aside from the personal
rebukes.

As a psychologist who does not prescibe but has to work with medicated
patients, I feel confused at the moment regarding best practice in mental
health. There has been so much manipulation and outright corruption in
mental health, and the (thinking, reading) public is also confused
especially regarding children. Meanwhile MH problems in the elderly often
go undiagnosed or treate.

I seldom advise anyone to consult a psychiatrist any more but these days
most of my patients are hospitalised in a general hospital, and the
physicians - you would call them internists - often prescribe calming,
sleeping and antidepressant medication.

Serenase for those who make too much noise or try to get out of bed against
medical advice and their own safety!!
