About this Quote

This quote by Lesley-Anne Down is referring to the radio talk show host, Dr. Laura Schlessinger. Dr. Laura is known for her conservative views and her no-nonsense technique to recommendations. She frequently gives guidance that is not always in line with the recommendations of an expert psychiatrist. By stating "We all understand how not to play a psychiatrist," Down is implying that Dr. Laura's guidance must not be taken as professional recommendations. She is recommending that we should not take Dr. Laura's recommendations as a replacement for expert psychiatric advice. Rather, we ought to take her suggestions as a guideline for how to live our lives, however not as a substitute for professional assistance. To put it simply, we should not rely solely on Dr. Laura's advice when it comes to our psychological health.
