Fun tale, I do wish I wish Clark would also read up on modern "Modern psychiatric science" and a few books on being a patient advocate and a couple on medical ethics.
I am not criticizing your tale, you are writing Clark as he is in canon. But in canon, in this area, he is an idiot studying to be a moron.
There is a rant in a Stargate fanfic that puts it very well
Daniel straightened abruptly and strode to MacKenzie's end of the table. He leaned across the wooden surface, thrusting his reddened face close to the psychiatrist's. "'Modern psychiatric science' is a criminally unsupported, destructive pseudo-science! It's based ninety percent on wild supposition and wishful thinking. The ‘literature' of psychiatry bears more resemblance to the mythology I've studied all my life than it does to anything remotely scientific. Or medical for that matter. And yes, I've read your journals and texts."
That rant is from Brionhet's tale "A Terrible Thing to Waste"
While it is not a slash tale a copy can be found at
