1. Definition of profession: Before talking about the work of a psychiatrist-narcologist, it is necessary to define what a psychiatrist and narcologist are. A psychiatrist is a doctor who diagnoses and treats mental illnesses. An addiction specialist, on the other hand, specializes in the treatment of addictions, including addictions to various psychoactive substances such as alcohol, drugs, etc. A doctor can deal with both mental disorders and addictions, and therefore the profession is called a “psychiatrist-narcologist.”
