Is scientific inquiry dead in Medicine?

Sorry, but after many years on the net
perusing articles, learning the field,
trying to weigh the political fights
in psychopharmacology, etc., I am really
frustrated. There seems to be such a
multitude of opinion, and i was taught
that in scientific inquiry it is not
opinion that counts but proof. Furthermore,
scientific inquiry isn't even considered
valid in psychiatry and sometimes replaced
with sociology, as if the brain is not
the seat of thought. Even Aristotle guessed
at that possiblity.

We seem to be in a new era. Medical
training must be different now, compared
to the days of Cade and Schou. I am very
lucky to have had the doctors who diagnosed
me 25 yrs. ago, as biological psychiatry
was not anathema then.

It's very frustrating. I hope someone
with knowledge in biology, linguistics,
and maybe even logic can come with
valid clinical trials and a better
understanding.
