An interesting comment made a few posts up. We treat mental illness with medication. Yet, we understand so little about how the brain works. Worse yet, Psychology and yes, Psychiatry is far from an exact science. One could argue that many prescriptions are written by Psychiatrists without definitive knowledge of cause and effect. The word "quackery" comes to mind.

My own son had been on medication a number of years ago under the care of a Psychiatrist. He took us through several "lets-try-this" prescriptions until he felt he was achieving the desired effect. Nonsense! I believe this is much too common and may be contributing to these horrific events.

Malpractice?
