There's a lot of posts on the forums that theorize why people act they way they do, but that information is seldom accurate and usually speculative. If anyone has any questions on why people behave the way they do, feel free to ask.
"Becoming a psychiatrist requires many years of schooling, especially at the graduate level. Individuals must first attend an undergraduate program, where they may choose to major in psychology or a related subject. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the minimum requirement for medical school is three years of undergraduate study, although most medical students have earned a bachelor's degree (www.bls.gov).
Students must next complete medical school, which typically lasts four years. The first two years are the pre-clinical years that cover major systems of the body and diseases and introduce students to the practice of medicine. The final two years, known as the clinical years, place students in healthcare facilities performing clinical rotations (sometimes known as clerkships) under the supervision of licensed medical professionals. Psychiatry is a required rotation.
After completing medical school, individuals enter a residency program in psychiatry. These programs include intensive work experience in the major specialties and techniques used in psychiatry. In the first year, residents learn essential skills, such as interviewing, treating and diagnosing. As residents advance through a program, they develop advanced skills and are given increased responsibility.
Psychiatrists who wish to specialize in a particular treatment or population will need to undergo a fellowship. Fellowship programs typically last 1-2 years. During a fellowship, individuals practice techniques geared toward their specialty while performing research and attending seminars. Some examples of psychiatry fellowship programs include geriatrics, child and adolescent psychiatry and psychosomatic medicine."
Impressive! so...
Oh wait, you were a psychologist?
