Need a plate of generic, insipid platitudes with a giant helping of bad science and misogyny?

Fortunately only psychiatrists can prescribe drugs and they're actual physicians.

That's an important distinction that too few people understand:

Psychiatrists: medical doctors with a specialization in mental health who can prescribe drugs

Psychologists: trained professionals with an academic degree who provide mental health care by (generally) talking with you

Both are important health care providers, but they generally do very different things, and in a mental health crisis you best have one of each at hand.
