Read it today in one of the English Dailies...I thought it was a little bit of an off comment to be honest...

Ooops, sorry, went off to gaze at my own navel after reading the name Oprah. I may need to access the thought processes occurring up my own bottom to answer this, much as they do...

hahahahahahhaha god that's good. First of all, Oprah isn't even a Psychologist, although she thinks she is, so you certainly can't feel like a Psycholgoist after watching her.
but no of course that's not true. it is true though,that programs such as dr. phil and oprah have educated the public on mental illness and relational problems more than the public was ever previously educated.
Take for instance, that everyone in the USA knows what OCD is, right? If you ask a Mexican was is OCD (in Spanish el TOC), they are like what are you talking about? We know about all the major mental illnesses and relational problems, watching those shows is a good thing. but of course it does not make us Psychologists.

I condiser anyone who has enough time to waist watching other people spew their private problems on tv should take up a hobby.
I have known people who watched these shows and if they qualify for ANYTHING then that explains a lot of things about this world.
I think maybe it is a misprint....
Maybe, "Anyone who watches Oprah or Dr. Phil, NEED a psychologist..."

Whoever wrote that forgot to include Jerry Springer. I was just reading my toilet book "Springer's Wildest Shows". I love the one about the guy who married a horse. Apparently the Spingster threw up back stage.

I study this two times. the type you layer longer tale-appropriate prose is admirable, and a few thing I incredibly have plenty worry with. you're making it look user-friendly, organic, yet all persons who write comprehend the alternative is authentic. I generally degree the effectiveness of a bite via the variety of TD's........Jealousy rears that is eco-friendly head. Kudos to you, Mr Carney.

Nope. I guess they might have meant that anyone of those people might be pleased to call themselves a psychologist ... but they were probably just being funny.

No, but some people think they can watch those shows and become knowledgeable bout psychology. Which is not really true, but that is what some people think.
