PPUM have a psychiatric unit. Well, for a start they will put medical students doing some interview and such before being referred to the doctor.

To be very honest, the approach to mental care here in malaysia still has much to improve. Most people, professionals and general public alike, look at it like a physical sickness which can be cured with pills. Matter of fact its a combination of care & medication, in fact more the former once the initial symptoms have come under control.

I say this because you can get pretty good medication etc from our hospitals, but the care side must come from family. Otherwise its a tough spot, and quickly becomes and endless cycle of episodes.

Somehow I get that impression from my session - the doctor told that I didn't need any medication. It's not that I come there asking for such medication in the first place.
