As a recent college grad who did the pre-requisites for pre-med and got in to med school (but decided to do the Peace Corps instead) I can tell you from experience that there is not a particular major that med schools look for and to set yourself apart, it is actually better to have a non science major *IF* you have done well in your pre-med courses and done well on the MCAT.
That said, I was a neuroscience major, which is a major that may help you think through your decision to pursue psychiatry.
Good Luck!
