Neurobabble

"[W]hen psychiatrists start using what I call neurobabble, beware, because we rarely know what we are talking about...We have convinced ourselves that we have developed cures for mental illnesses, when in fact we know so little about the underlying neurobiology of their causes that our treatments are often a series of trials and errors".
--Daniel Carlat, "Unhinged: The Trouble With Psychiatry"
