r/Psychiatry is a subreddit with 159k members. Its distinguishing qualities are that the community is huge in size, and has high activity.
We're a community created for psychiatrists and others in the mental health field to come together and discuss our field. We are not a subreddit to ask psychiatrists questions either about individual situations about psychiatry generally. Those questions should be directed to r/AskPsychiatry.
