H. Steven Moffic, MD, was recently asked to give a presentation for his local community of adults over 60 years of age. He suggested an “Ask the Psychiatrist Anything” session. Here’s what they asked:

-Does psychiatric medication cause brain damage?

-Is electric shock treatment still used?

-Why are youth having so much trouble coping nowadays?

-Does sleep and exercise help mental health?

-What do you think about the future of psychiatry?
