"patient psychiatric patients in the U.S., as 
well as the 20 million or so who get out-patient 
treatment ­ the No.-1 preferred approach is 
drugs. Just drugs. The guidelines don't mention 
psychological approaches like 
cognitive-behavioral therapy until No. 3, just after electroshock therapy.
...
"In the context of national guidelines that will 
shape the treatment of millions, it borders on 
quackery to include cognitive-behavioral therapy 
in the same sentence that the A.P.A. (American 
*Psychiatric*, ugh) calls “problem-solving therapy.”"
