Abstract
Article AbstractBecause this piece does not have an abstract, we have provided for your benefit the first 3 sentences of the full text.Whether by intent or accident, each of us, upon making psychiatry our chosen specialty, steps into a philosophical minefield that we are generally unprepared to navigate. Even those psychiatrists who claim no expertise at addressing what constitutes "the good life" face big questions concerning free will and determinism, dualism and holism, virtue, vice, and victimhood. For several decades, medicine as a whole has wrestled with the ever higher premium placed on patient autonomy in health care decision-making.
