Of course I don't think a doctor shouldn't be prescribing medication based solely upon a 5 minute conversation with a patient either. No they should not.

They have not studied medicines and their effects, etc. so they should not be able to prescribe them. Just my not-so-humble opinion.

It seems like 99% of the public can be diagnosed with depression or something and take all the pills in the world to wash away their problems. Yea.

I think psychology, when it comes to depression and stuff, is a complete joke.It's a way for them to make money. You shouldn't depend on medicine, and even a psychologist in order to be okay. You have to learn how to get over things on your own. No, I don't think anyone but those who are seriously mentally-ill should be using prescription drugs.
