Was my psychiatrist a bit rude? What's your opinion about this?

Hi Gag, so today I went to a psychiatrist to discuss about my anxiety problems and some other stuff that has been concerning me. (depression and sleep problems)

So after the doctor asked me some questions about my life, history etc. I said "I'm worried that my condition might get worse". Then he said "what could possibly go worse? You're already a failure, you've never accomplished anything in your life" I don't believe this is true (It's hard to tell my life story here, there are definitely things I could have done better, but I've also done several positive things. ) but even if it was, wasn't his comment a bit harsh?

Typo I meant *"you haven't accomplished anything in your life"

You haven't yet realized why psychiatrist exist. They aren't there to make you better, or to help you. They are just part of an overall system that has been designed to keep you exactly where you are, while feeding you the illusion of movement. But in this rare case, he slipped up revealing his true purpose... i. e to keep you where you are.

You are the only one that can move away from, and through this depression and all other problems. And if you seek help, only someone who is truly there to help you ascend will help you. Also consider that their life, bills, survival and mortgage depends on you and others remaining exactly where they are...

They always talk about conflict of interest...

You've got to be kidding me people don't talk like that especially doctors they're there to lift your spirits

Report him asap he is in the wrong business. You are there to get help not for someone to make you feel like a failure. He needs to re evaluate himself. Some people are there to just make money and others are there because they truly have a heart for people. This needs to be addressed and make known or it will only continue
