I have a distinct recollection of professors at a UNC Chapel Hill department cocktail party comparing notes on their psychoanalysts in the late 2000’s.

Psychologists are not the same as physicians or psychiatrists. Your 20 year old anecdote isn’t proof of anything, sorry.

It was a poor attempt at humor. Sorry. EDIT: oh, it’s you. Hello Newman. Destroyer of humor. Psychoanalysts can have MDs. They’re a relic of one aspect of health that mainly and rightly died out in the 70s. There.
