Does Psychiatry Have A Place Nigeria?
« on: March 05, 2007, 11:17 PM »

I am thinking of becoming a psychiatrist but worried of what the uptake of my services would be like in Nigeria. I think our society lives in a state of denial with regard to mental disorders and urgent help is needed in that regard. Many people are turning to the wrong places for solutions to problems which science has already provided a proven solution. Don't get me wrong i'm all for prayers and spiritual interventions but i believe that when coupled with therapy, the overall prognosis is far better than either on its own.
