Psychiatrists are trained to spot drug seeing behaviors, and will never prescribe powerful mind altering drugs on the first few sessions. They have a responsibility against the patient, and experienced professionals have turned down many of these requests over the years. People who actively seek drugs are fairly predictable in their behavior, usually fit race, age and social groups. If a professional is in doubt they can always ask for a second opinion from another professional, or an agency that regulates drugs, that usually has social workers, psychologists and psychiatrists, even drug experts and drug withdrawal professionals.
