Most mental health professionals see other professionals on a regular basis.  It helps keep them sane and they can talk about work things that bother them with someone who really understands.\n\nIn most places in the U.S., for the first five years of their practice, a psychologist has to see a supervising psychologist one hour for every forty hours spent with patients.  They make sure the supervisee is not in over his head with patients' care and they touch base on how the supervisee is doing himself.\n\nA mental health clinic I am aware of has group sessions on the clock in addition to the supervision above.  They get together and work on their problems just like you would if you were in group therapy.

I don't know of any way to guarantee that anyone you contact online who claims to be a psychiatrist really has the credentials--but for that matter, if you're really needing to talk to somebody, you need to at least be able to reach someone by phone, and if at all possible meet in person. I'd like to suggest the link below from my website that lists toll-free crisis-hotline numbers. And if I can help in any way, I'm not a licensed counselor but I'm willing to listen. Drop me a line at chad@jesusfreak.com if you'd like. Take care.

I hope by go you mean to seek help. When we are deep in depression it is difficult to see things clearly or to be able to see far ahead. What you need to do is call 911 and tell them you need help. You need to take a break and go to a hospital where you can get the treatment you need. I urge you to please make the call.

the full term is "head shrinker," i think it means that psychiatrists are supposedly shrinking the problems in your head?

Phone you local, usually a county, mental health office or phone a psychiatrist and ask her/him for a reference. I would think, however, that any board certified psychiatrist might be able to help you.

Shrink is an obselete term and the reason is because it refers to "head shrinkers". It is pure slang. Sometimes psychiatrists are even called alienists!
