Watched the first video. The guy is immediately wrong. Psychiatrists are not looking for damage to brain tissue, otherwise known as organic damage. That is wrong. For one, a NEUROLOGIST looks for that, and they do so with a CAT scan
Psychiatrists use things such as how a person presents (their affect, their behaviors when speaking, etc), along with their answers to verbal questions during an evaluation as indicators of CHEMICAL IMBALANCE. This cannot be detected with a scan and has nothing to do with damage to brain tissue. In fact, if brain tissue IS damaged, such as with a TBI, psych medications can often have little benefit, because these are meant to correct chemical levels in the brain. Not to say they never are a benefit, but for someone with a TBI, they may have very limited benefit

There's no such thing as chemical imbalance. People have shitty lives. Shitty diets. Get soaked in cortisol and treated like shit. Get prescribed meds that stress their body more and their lives, diets, habits remain shitty. They lose their ability to cope or people don't believe them when they're really being abused, and they fucking snap.
No one corrects their diet. Or teaches them meditation. Or helps them get out of the abusive situation.
