I propose in this essay to question the pre-eminence of psychiatric opinion, the accepted notion that psychiatric clinical experience is the benchmark of valid mental health symptoms, and suggest a pathway towards lasting and effective treatment. The first myth to tackle is that of psychiatry as just another medical specialty resting on the laurels of scientific and professional credibility.
