Psychiatry is the study and treatment of mental illness, emotional disturbance, and abnormal behavior. It deals with something nebulous – the human brain. There is no real way to qualify something when it comes to the brain like diabetes, so psychiatry uses approximate similar elements that everyone shares to make that determination.
