I don’t know what you’re basing this on. Good psychiatrists absolutely “call themselves doctors” and definitely seek to exclude or treat organic causes of psychiatric symptoms. All the psychiatrists I know absolutely understand there’s a link between the immune system and mood disorders and will involve immunology/rheumatology for these things.

Your ideas about how psychiatry is practiced might have been correct in the 1950’s but they’re a world away from how it’s done in the 2020s.
