	Psychiatry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Psychiatry has proven to be a malleable term, which today refers to the branches of medicine which associate with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental, emotional, and behavioral disorders, such as major depression, schizophrenia, and anxiety disorders.
		Inpatients are confined to a hospital where they receive their psychiatric care (voluntarily in the majority of cases, but sometimes involuntarily in severe or dangerous cases).
		Psychiatric illnesses are generally characterised as disorders of the mind rather than the brain, although the distinction is not always obvious.
