Not in a position to comment about the medical facilities in America. I'm not sure what is a primary care doctor so maybe I don't know what most people are talking about.

In Asia, it is very difficult to find a psychiatrist because to say you have mental problems is to say that you are cuckoo in the head. Psychiatrists are mainly used by hospitals or NGOs to help people suffering from trauma related to crime. So psychiatrists are very rare and not that common to find. Most of them are private institutions. Not sure if private health insurance even covers such treatment. 

But people who take Lady Gaga's statements about medicine as 100% advices are people who can't decide anything for themselves. They are probably people who watched conspiracy theory videos on youtube with bad editing and believe them to be 100% truths. I don't think there is a need to ROAST her for her statements. Perhaps his choice of words need to be kinder and suggestive (like to give people advice) rather than denouncing her in any way.

Gaga is an incredibly wealthy woman with whole teams of people looking after her. And she is not a medically trained proffesional. She can talk about her experiences, but presuming to offer advice like this is wrong, because she is in a position where impressionable people will listen to her.

Gaga is right tho. A general practice doctor should not be handing out brain medication. A psychiatrist should be. She’s saying that drugs for the brain are not the same as taking an aspirin and should only be given very cautiously, and that only specialist doctors should be making that type of recommendation.

Exactly.

Also there is a reason why a bunch of psychiatrists are also neurologists and other psychiatrists work closely together with neurologists.
Some of these medications can truly mess up your brain/body and a few of them, if not handled properly, even forever.

I've experienced it myself and would never trust a general practitioner with psychiatric drugs. :saladga:

Nope, he's incorrect. 

A primary care doctor should not be prescribing you anti depressants or anything of that nature. Gaga was correct with that statement. 

A primary care doctor is not trained to determine proper mental health treatments. It's not what they went to school for.

I mean he’s a medical professional, idk what he said yet, but I’m more inclined to believe medical advice from somebody who studied for years and has a degree in the field rather than someone who doesn’t.

Edit: Ughhh did Gaga really say that? I’m disappointed, some people can’t live without antidepressants, that’s so dangerous that she’s putting that into the ether with the platform she has.

Did he lie tho?

 

Here in Canada as of 2006 all new graduating family doctors have some degree of mental health training because the system can't handle every single person being refered to a phychiatrist and that way for more milder cases family doctors can assist

 

In my case I was refered to a phychiatrist but my family doctor managed me until I was able to get in because of long wait times

Yea, because she's a doctor and knows everything there is to know about. Is an expert. 

Which is totally how she acted and made it seem during the interview :smh:

So ridiucous. Gaga literally mentioned go to your own doctor and talk to a mental health professional since everyone is different and needs their own plan.

Yes, Gaga is ABSOLUTELY wrong.

 

It's not even about rich vs poor!! Primary care physicians ARE SPECIALISTS.

 

Primary care physicians are doctors who can be absolutely qualified to prescribe ANY DRUG. A primary care physician is a specialist in many areas!! Only when the situation is very severe should the patient be referenced to a specialist. And, of course, some primary care physicians can have a bigger background in different areas (for example, a primary care physician who is more interested in pediatrics and has a better training there, and not psychiatry, should always reference to a specialist knowing his/her limits).

 

Primary care physicians' stigma is a big issue around the world, but it sounds awful in the USA. Nothing about what Gaga said is true and this truly is a very wrong perception of what a doctor is and can be.

 

Anyway, this might be all about the healthcare system in the US, which is... a bit of a mess. Usually, primary care physicians/family doctors are the first step in EVERY situation except acute emergencies (and even there they can be the first step) and only afterwards should the patient be directed to a specialty. Ideally, the patient doesn't even have access to a specialist, unless he is refered by the primary care physician.

I was wondering if ur comment on this since ur a doctor itself

 

And I agree. I have anxiety and depression at times pretty bad...

 

But I only saw phychiatrist at my worst point and now I go occasionally as checkup to make sure all is going ok

 

For the most part my family doctor is managing it now. He refered me originally cuz I was pretty bad at one point and also was hospitalized but u can tell when dealing with him that he is trained in that area and if it was more mild maybe he wouldn't have I dunno

 

That being said Canada (at least here in Ontario, some aspects of healthcare are run by Provinces) is very specialist oriented... Ppl are refered a lot for a lot of things. I think we have way more medical buildings for specialists than family doctors and hospitals tbh :air:

 

In Portugal when I had severe asthma problems as a kid and had to be on puffers all the time and even got hospitalized a few times I still always had my appointments with family doctor. If it was here in Canada they would have sent me to a specialist... They just do that a lot for every little thing :awkney:

Um what?? I watched her entire interview with Oprah which this is about and she said nothing of the sort. 

The only thing she mentioned is that she doesn't take narcotics and that they're addictive. That she does other things to help manage her pain. 

She also said she takes anxiety meds, and an antipsychotic. I believe she said she also takes an antidepressant, so why on earth would she advise people not to take them? 

In fact, she advised everyone to go seek professional advise for their own case. 

Like please. She helps run a foundation that studies mental health. She's not gonna go around telling people that.
