Depends on the diagnosis; most of psychiatry is a crackpot dispensing bullshit in little expensive pills.  The whole Zoloft/Lunesta etc. cracker-barrel.  




But a chemical imbalance (lithium for example) can really improve with meds.  




Or learning what answers they want during the sessions....... 




I don't disagree that meds are handed out a little too often, but they like everything have their uses. Just not for me.




As do some where you just talk. My Psychologist doesn't do as much for me as the dogs and horses do, but talking to her does help me sleep at night... sometimes.




The problem is, too many folks want to be patients today, whether they need the drugs and treatments or not, thus the opinion that both are ineffective and unnecessary among the folks who don't. Most folks simply don't need them, but then some of us simply do.
