About the book: 2023 / In the work, the author, a psychiatrist, talks about the situation in our country with the rights of the mentally ill in the year 2000. Recommendations are given on where to go if the patient and his relatives are dissatisfied with the quality of treatment from a particular psychiatrist. True, you shouldn’t get too carried away in the search for truth, so that it doesn’t turn into paranoia and excessive suspicion, distrust of everyone, everywhere. There are psychiatrists who have a candidate of science, doctor of science, and professor degree. As a rule, their level of competence is higher than that of a simple conventional doctor. In addition, psychiatry, unlike all other medicine, lives by its own specific rules and laws. Which, unfortunately, even experienced non-psychiatrists do not know about. Many elements of the psychiatrist's relationship with the patient are dictated by numerous instructions, rules and laws. And not the whim or whim of a particular doctor. Before complaining, you need to be properly informed about a specific issue.
