Psychiatry: Difference between revisions

... am curious about a kind of ecology of language / symbolizing (primatologically-informed) approach from a psychotherapeutic / psychiatric perspective (for example, what the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School would teach its MDs) to family dynamics, individual therapy and clinical practice at World University and School - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Psychiatry - and http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Psychotherapy - as new approaches in these fields.

WUaS is curious to extend the medical discipline of psychiatry (including knowledge/narratives of the mind/brain/bodymind, pharmaceuticals, therapeutic approaches, etc.) to include knowledge based on evolutionary biology (esp.especially human, and all species) as well as, especially, primatological research (e.g. 376 species of higher primates, most without language). New, wiki subject coming to WUaS http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Psychiatry (and, in its knowledge orientation to helping people with mental illness, informed by nontheistic Friendliness?). I think there's a dearth of focus in psychiatry from these knowledge-spheres, but please add resources to further this conversation. In what ways could WUaS contribute a bliss focus (how to elicit this neurophysiology?) to the medical discipline of psychiatry, as well? By 'non-theistically Friendly,' I tend to mean biological and sociocultural, with a touch of serendipity and synchronicity, and emerging out of Silent Meeting (& Quaker discourse) as a kind of de facto group relaxation response with a specific history, for us as human primates, - ideas relatively underexplored (by us as) nontheistic Friends. 'Non-theism' as biology and culture might bring us somehow into conversation with, for example, those peoples in Herzog's recent film 'Cave of Forgotten Dreams' who lived and made cave art 30,000-40,000 years ago in what is now the south of France.

WUaS would like its eventual Psychiatry departmentDepartment in its online Medical School at WUaS to be 'Concepts of Determinism' by John Money-centric: http://scottmacleod.com/anthropology/determinism.htm .
