Psychiatric Association HAMMERS Anti-Trump Members For Irresponsible Public Diagnosis

True opinions are not a "diagnosis", unfortunately you idiots don't understand that.
When a psychiatrist identifies himself as a psychiatrist they intend for their status to be used to back their credibility. As the P.A. pointed out, making such an 'opinion' without seeing the person professionally as a psychiatrist only undermines that professional credibility.

Perhaps YOU did not understand THAT...

No big bold pink boy --- making a diagnosis without seeing the subject would do that. But nobody did that.
The Psychiatric Association seriously disagrees with you, as the article states it has condemned all of its members running in front of the Liberal Media microphones and cameras to declare Trump is 'mentally unstable'.

You should write them a stern letter, and set them straight.


:p

Don't need to, short-fonted vulgarian-boi. You see, nobody has presented their analysis as a "diagnosis". That's why the title is a lie.

Prove me wrong.

From your NYT link:

>> Contrary to what many believe, this ["Goldwater"] rule does not mean that professionals must remain silent about public figures. In fact, the guidelines specifically state that mental health experts should share their knowledge to educate the public.

So while it would be unethical for a psychiatrist to say that President Trump has narcissistic personality disorder, he or she could discuss common narcissistic character traits, like grandiosity and intolerance of criticism, and how they might explain Mr. Trump’s behavior. In other words, psychiatrists can talk about the psychology and symptoms of narcissism in general, and the public is free to decide whether the information could apply to the individual. <<
Your own link, Ace.

NONE of which contradicts that 'opinion' and 'diagnosis' are two different things, or that you were too illiterate to get that that is exactly what I posted in the fucking first place. So uh, no Spunky, I don't think I'm the one who needs to wake the fuck up here.

Again --- go learn to read.

That's probably impossible but see post 11 -- where I cited APA directly. After I corrected the OP's title that claims APA said something it did not.

So it could be said that some posters know more about what APA is thinking than the OP does, which I just proved ---- but that's not saying much given the degree of illiteracy and partisan hackitude. It wasn't exactly rocket surgery to blow a hole in this thread.

Democrats are losing. Trump's killin it. They're very desperate now. They'll say or do anything at this point. They're hitting rock-bottom. Go Trump! :)

When you are reduced to the "HE'S INSANE AND STUPID!!!" card, you know you lost.

He's INSANE AND STUPID.....and Hillary Clinton spent $1.2 billion to lose to an INSANE IDIOT.

In that case, who is the REAL idiot....the idiot in the WHITE HOUSE or the idiot who spent $1.2 billion and lost to the idiot in the WHITE HOUSE?
 
In fact, the guidelines specifically state that mental health experts should share their knowledge to educate the public.

Publicly declaring Trump is not mentally stable is NOT 'sharing their knowledge'. It is spewing butt-hurt, unsubstantiated opinion while attempting to use one's status as a Psychiatrist to bolster their credibility. THAT is what / who the P.A. is condemning...


Nice try... :p

Psychiatric Association HAMMERS Anti-Trump Members For Irresponsible Public Diagnosis

Obviously the PA believes some of its butt-hurt partisan members have done just that, thus the condemnation of their members who they feel have done that.

ALSO, dumbass...I CLAIMED NOTHING FALSELY NOR DID I LIE - THE TITLE OF THIS THREAD IS FROM THE ARTICLE TITLE:

Psychiatric Association Hammers Members Over Diagnosing Public Figures

Psychiatric Association Hammers Members Over Diagnosing Public Figures
 
"The American Psychiatric Association called out members of its profession for offering their professional opinions about public figures—namely those they haven’t personally examined.

The rebuke comes after questions about President Trump’s mental fitness have surfaced in recent days.

"We at the APA call for an end to psychiatrists providing professional opinions in the media about public figures whom they have not examined, whether it be on cable news appearances, books, or in social media," the group wrote.

"Arm-chair psychiatry or the use of psychiatry as a political tool is the misuse of psychiatry and is unacceptable and unethical."



If you think this will stop ... or even slow down ... the idiots who are declaring Trump has mental issues based on BUTT-HURT HATE-DRIVEN POLITICAL PARTISANSHIP you are wasting your time. Seditious Snowflakes will not be deterred, even by facts and professionals.



Psychiatric Association Hammers Members Over Diagnosing Public Figures

Let's nip this bullshit right in the bud, that being the title. Plus the ensuing smokescreen post here:

They don't give a shit if they violate their training. They want to be loved by the left.

The should lose their credentials if they violate SOP and accepted best practices.

No different than if a MEDICAL DOCTOR DIAGNOSED CANCER OVER THE PHONE.

They should lose thier license to practice. PERIOD.

Opinions and analyses are not "diagnoses". A diagnosis is assembled out of a personal examination.

Got that? Or did you think you were gonna get away with this?

NO ONE has "diagnosed" Rump as far as we know. If anyone has he's making sure no one knows about it.

True opinions are not a "diagnosis", unfortunately you idiots don't understand that.


Well, if the " American Psychiatric Association " called out the comments as "unacceptable and unethical", it looks like YOU ARE THE IDIOT...that is my PSYCOLOGICAL OPINION OF YOU....AN INSANE INDIOT.

Blame the American Psychiatric Association, not us. You need to STFU and pull your pinhead out of your dick. The practice of Medicine isn't supposed to be political.

You're too stupid to know that a PSYCOLOGIST testified before members of CONGRESS on Trump's MENTAL HEALTH.....WITHOUT EXAMINING HIM. That's unethical and strictly political.

Get a clue.

Yeah, it's pathetic desperation. Trump's killin it. They know it.

Indeed it is, and it's a lie.

The APA didn't characterize anybody's opinion as a "diagnosis" -- the headline writer did that.

That/'s either because the headline writer doesn't know what the term "diagnosis" means, or he does know and deliberately put it there to ensnare the gullible because it sells papers. Either way it's irresponsibility. Which is what I pointed out in my first post here.
