• Isn't this why we elect politicians, so they can make complex and important decisions on the behalf of the population?

    As a comedian said around the time, you don't go for surgery and expect the doctor to ask your opinion about what he should be doing, that's his job.

    Ironically that’s pretty much how mental health services currently work. Go in with all the signs and symptoms of severe depression, get diagnosed with severe depression, then get saddled with making loads of specific decisions about your treatment as if you were 1) a medical doctor, 2) aware of what all the options are, and 3) not f^#}ng depressed.

    Guess it’s by design to decrease liability tho.
