Psychoanalysis

My previous message on this seems to have disappeared, anyway the general gist was this:
Can anyone give me specific details about careers in psychoanalysis, and how I would go about getting into one of these careers?
Cheers

I think you're in the wrong place. I shouldn't think anyone here thinks psychoanalysis works any better than chatting to a close friend

Why would you want to go into that? Psychoanalysis is considered backwards and ineffective...yet very expensive. It is a poor way to deal with any mental illness.

My experience entirely. Surely only psychoanalysts themselves still believe their 'treatment' has any worth?

I think psychoanalysis is not a term we use now, it is more 1980's, maybe. At least a masters and perhaps a PhD is required. 6-8 years of school.
Check the numbers of suicide, burn out, and rate
of pay (depends on the country) before you decide.

This is a fine question, but it doesn't have to do with medication, so it would've been more appropriate for, and any further responses should be redirected to, Psycho-Social-Babble. Thanks,

Bob

PS: And, as usual, follow-ups regarding what should go where should be redirected to Psycho-Babble Administration...
