How courageous of Poseidon Press to publish it. Her experience resonates with what I have heard too often in my 40 years as a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst. Surveys indicate that 10 percent of therapists have sex with patients. This is outrageous and must be stopped. Your readers can make some important changes by writing to their state legisla tors and insisting that sex with patients should be considered a felony, like rape. Then, instead of professionals "taking care of their own,” the district attorney's office would be in charge and there would be no more ptotection by the American Psychiatric Association, hos- pital staffs and state licensing boards. -- Joh A. Lindon, M.D., Ph.D., past presi- dent, Southem California Psychoanalyt- ic Institute, professor, U.C.L.A. School of Medicine, Los Angeles, Calif Dear Dr. Lindon: You will be pleased to know, as | was, that the col- umn about Barbara Noel produced some extremely positive results. Here's a letter from Joseph Efiglish, president of the American Psychiatric Association Dear Ann: We applaud your efforts to protect psychiatric patients from exploitation and to inform the public that doctor/patient sex is ALWAYS wrong. It is important that your readers know how strongly we share your con- cerns and outrage. The APA will not tolerate this behavior from its members. We have learned from this incident how important it is to publicize these viola- tions more widely and have taken action to do so. — Joseph English, M.D., presi- dent, American Psychiatric Association Dear Dr. English: Thanks for being so totally up front. My readers will appreciate that enormously. Read on for more on this subject Dear Ann Landers: Thank you for having the courage to review the book You Must Be Dreaming” by Barbara Noel. the woman who claims she was raped by her psychiatrist. I started read ing your column as a college student in the ‘60s and still read it every day You've been a wonderful influence in my life and here you are -- still teaching me about truth and justice and courage Sue Miller, Fairport, N.Y. Dear Sue: Your kind words were especially welcome after this one: Dear Ann Landers: Stick to giving advice and lay off the book reviews. I have never read such filth in my life. I hid the paper from the kids. -- Boise, Idaho From Oregon: I found the psychiatric profession's disinterest, denial and cover-up more disturbing than what happened to Barbara Noel. The same thing happened to my cousin a few years ago. She. was raped by her dentist Apparently, it isn't only psychiatrists. — Joy S.
