"Psychiatry mimics science but is not a real science...That gives psychiatrists free reign to just experiment and symptom chase, often insanely chasing the side effects and negative interactions of the current drug regimen with more and more drugs. Polypharmacy is also a way psychiatrists can distinguish themselves in an increasingly competitive market. No one believes you need a specialist for one drug -- any primary care physician can give you Zoloft -- but for multi-drug therapy you do."
- Florida Psychiatrist Dr. Phillip Sinaikin, author of Psychiatryland
