The APA standard doesn't require consent or approval, so this is irrelevant. Any patient can read the APA guidelines and is at risk of being published about anonymously by any psychiatrist. If you have an issue with that, you should take it up with APA, not Scott.

I don't think this is true. Lori Leibovich's book went into it a bit. (She's a psychologist who wrote about her patients.)

Scott's vivid description of both his contempt and *envy* of the convicted domestic abuser who'd had more girlfriends than him certainly crossed what most people would consider to be some sort of line, regardless of what the APA thinks

So do you believe that psychiatrists should be banned from sharing any negative beliefs about certain behaviors or beliefs? Do you believe that anti-racist psychiatrists are in the wrong? Or does this only apply to the 'other?'

You can't even force them to make patients privy to their private conversations or their locked Facebook posts or their journal or the private notes they've written ABOUT THEIR PATIENTS All of that falls under their own right to privacy

And that's, you know, just life It sucks but probably tons of people have had racist doctors - and suffered for it - and they'll never know and there's no easy way to do anything about it immediately
