Is there an oath, standard, or principle in psychology/psychiatry that says something to the effect of;

  • While still in school/training, I will not attempt to diagnose anyone at all.
  • Before and after accreditation, I will never analyze or diagnose someone without their consent.
  • Especially if angry, I will never use a perceived or actual diagnosis as a weapon against someone.

I guess it could be phrased in many ways, but, if such a principle (as a rule or oath) exists, what is its name? Surely something like this does exist, right?!

Thanks in advance^^
