You simply cannot be a psychologist or a psychiatrist if you have mental issues. Being a mentally deficient psychologist or psychiatrist is a paradox. You can't understand mental health if your brain doesn't work properly. Anybody who wants to become a mental health professional, must sign a legal document to self-certify own mental health. In XXI century this is still not happening. If you need help in mental health department, chances are that your doctor may be mentally impaired.

today everyone can be a psychologist. all he has to do is follow the instructions of the official psychology guide book, thats also how they get the phd, by following instructions. not by being sane.

This is my point. Any asshole can pass the exams, because it's only about memory, not self consciousness.,

but its not limited to the 1 profession. the difference between a psychologist vs a good psychologist will be like a can of dirt beer, vs a bottle of 50 year old aged champagne eggnog. or a wheelbarrow vs a stretched limousine. i wouldnt pick any of those, but both passed the exams and inspections. they are now vehicles.
