Psychiatry is a branch of medicine, concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of emotional, behavioural or in brief our mental disorders. This specialty perhaps has been the most misconceived among all the medicine specialties from its conception in late 19th century to this very day, stigmatized by others, not only lay people and the public, including the media, but by own medical field and other specialists and has for long been treated as the “waste basket” of medicine. This perhaps mostly could be blamed on the field of psychiatry itself, as it is a “misnomer” in name and term!
