Consulting a psychiatrist means that I must be MENTAL?

Psychiatrist treats many different kind of psychological problems like anxiety disorders, depression, OCD, phobias, panic disorders, anger outbursts, drug dependence, epilepsy, academic issues and various other issues. This common misconception about being mad is mainly due to depiction of psychiatry patients in movies and media. That constitutes only a minority of patients seen by psychiatrist.

Will other specialty doctors treat psychiatry problems?

Due to deficiency of mental health professionals in India, doctors from other specialty also try to treat psychiatry patients as they have got 1-2 months of training in psychiatry during the period of their graduation or post-graduation. But for expert opinions you should consult a psychiatrist only.
If you have a problem with your electrical issues you do not consult a plumber.
