About this listen
How many psychologists does it take to screw in a lightbulb? One. But the lightbulb has to want to be screwed. Change is only a small part of the equation.
#Psychsurvival looks at thought and action in relations to the intended goal. Psychiatrists make the diagnoses, then write med orders with the goal of managing symptoms.. Nurses monitor patient functioning and note behavioral changes. Psychologists assess stability and reality contact. Patients just want to get back to what is familiar however dysfunctional. We were taught that the head of the treatment team is the patient. But everyone knows better.. Like the Tower of Babel, everyone uses different languages and understands roles differently toward purposes that are hardly discussed. Is this a flaw or a feature? #criminalbehavior #insanity
