Of course chiropractors are bullshitters. That’s obvious to anyone with any training in science. And also most of psychology/psychiatry is bullshit, especially the pharmaceutical side. In general, humans wanting to believe that all serious problems have medical/pharmaceutical solutions leads to a large amount of bullshit in the minds of people who have the education to do better.

Jumping from chirpractic to psychiatry is a leap.

Lumping psychology and psychiatry together is also a leap.

One is about magical theories on how our minds and emotions work, the other is about biochemistry.

Aren't psychiatrists the people who prescribe children and teenagers drugs for imaginary "medical conditions" that are in fact complex and nebulous emotional/behavioral/mood issues that we have no understanding of at a biochemical level and indeed doubtless can never be fully characterized at a biochemical level due to the complexities of the human mind?

It's lovely that you think of psychiatry as concerned with biochemistry, but that is the problem that I am referring to.
