Besides the psychiatry as a field, has a very dark eugenics background. It was basically born in tandem with fascism, which is why the Soviets found that field so distasteful.
if you say this to libs theyll look at you like youre crazy but so many americans are on antidepressants while in the rest of the world its considered heavy duty stuff and NOT given to any average citizen…
i remember a documentary, i cant remember what war (it was post 2000) but it was a traumatized veteran who didnt look older than 20 and then they had a treament segment and he had a talk therapist and spent time with his parents, no medication at all…
Ohh. Is there some resource to learn more about that? I didn’t think that psychiatry had birthmarks like that or that the soviets had a particular distaste for it.
An important to note is Lev Vygotsky’s cultural-historical psychology theory. Mosche Wulff was also an early figure (but he became later an establishing figure in Israhelli psychiatry so go figure).
After the Lenin’s death especially Freudian psychoanalysis was rejected outright.
Western society was more focused on stopping mental illness, while the soviets primarily were interested in care and mental illness divorced from a biological origin.

Because the goal of the system is to return you to being an effective worker, not wellness.
Yeah where I am from medical professionals rarely prescribe high doses medication, its harder to get the heavy stuff.

The most famous Psychiatrists in history were mentally fucked people with equally fucked up politics.
I’m convinced that most people who get into psychiatry are deeply fucked-up people who want to figure themselves out.
