>read about schizoid personality disorder DSM-5
>all the criteria are literally just various flavors of not giving a shit
>closes with "Individuals who are “loners” may display personality traits that might be considered
schizoid. Only when these traits are inflexible and maladaptive and cause significant func-
tional impairment or subjective distress do they constitute schizoid personality disorder."
Is this all psychiatry really is? Just taking various personality types and saying they're a problem if they don't happen to fit in with the environment? Does a schizoid sentenced to life in solitary confinement who has a great time stop being a schizoid? Does an otherwise "normal" person that goes insane in solitary confinement become borderline?

>>16713353

>yeah most of the diagnoses there are just 'it's a disease if it interferes with normal life, otherwise it's just a personality disorder'
That does not appear accurate. It's a disorder if it interferes with function in a given environment, it's not a disorder at all if it allows you to function in that environment. Consider my example of a schizoid in solitary confinement again - all the traits that would be maladaptive in society would make them tolerate or even thrive in this new environment.

There is a clear fundamental normative bias towards maintaining the status quo through assigning blame for the person-environment mismatch on the person rather than the environment, unless the environment is the local, ingrained status quo. If one cannot tolerate a 9-5, it's their fault, a 9-5 is perfectly normal (because it's the local, ingrained status quo) and they have maladaptive traits. If they cannot tolerate solitary confinement and commit suicide, it was actually the environment's fault now, because solitary confinement isn't "normal" and the innocent person simply suffered an acute stress reaction/trauma response/etc.

Dunno about you, but i really don't want any subjective, arbitary biases in my science.

>>16713361
>see like this guy is clearly a schizo retard because his condition forces him to spend his life obsessively sperging about muh big pharma on 4chan instead of going to work and getting laid
But this actually makes him well adapted for this zimbabwean basket weaving website. That your work and sex having ass can't deal with his retardation makes you maladapted here. He is sane within the context, while you're suffering from a normie personality disorder. There will be a reversal when you both go outside, but we're not outside.

>>16713366
it's the opposite actually, people get upset at you if you say you want to make a change

i went into medicine to make a change and i plan to when i get my specialty and a degree of independence and a stable job

yet if you say you went into medicine to help people a bunch of desouled dehumanized demotivated humiliated millennials will call you 'a hypocrite' and pretend they know 'how the world really really works' while they get fat lmao

>>16713366
they think medicine should be done purely out of passion for caring for all the retards, drug addicts, fatties, and rarely normal people when, just like anything else, it's just a component of why you decide to choose a certain career. they also think you might be trying to scam them or something.

>>16713387

What do you plan to do?

>>16713380
Nah, people who only think about slaving away at a job and whoremongering are fools. Covetousness and fornication and whoredom, what a fool's way to live.

>>16713393
there's plenty of things that can and should be done
ban smoking and alcohol
divert money from pointless grants to pharma corpos towards beds and personnel
overall a focus on fewer pointless interventions
less research done, but more trials and high quality long term research instead of the slop
tighten the drug approval process

there's so much room for improvement it requires organization but i have to first finish residency and get my specialty over with

>>16713387
>it's the opposite actually, people get upset at you if you say you want to make a change
I mean this is just a classic cognitive dissonance avoidance via social rejection. People don't like being reminded that they're doing something they themselves do not consider to be morally correct. They went into it for the money, because they like money, but they are internally aware this isn't praiseworthy. So when they encounter someone who isn't in it for the money, it causes a dissonance, and it's much easier to criticize that person than to change their own approach, which may result in less money.

There are also doctors and people in general who are perfectly comfortable with doing things purely for the money, which means there's no cognitive dissonance and they usually won't mind people doing things for other reasons. They may be critical for other reasons, but it will stem from difference in opinion, not insecurity.

>>16713405
>ban smoking and alcohol
Does your desire to limit people's freedom of choice in order to protect their health against their will reach its logical conclusion, or do you draw a convenient, arbitrary line in the sand where your own personal vices begin? I don't smoke or drink btw, I don't even consume caffeine. Would you be in favor of banning caffeine, which is also a harmful, unnecessary psychoactive substance that can cause development of a dependence, tolerance, withdrawal, etc.?

>>16713416
caffeine too yeah

>>16713420
Well then i respect the consistency and integrity at least, even though i have the polar opposite opinion and would make most drugs legal even though i have no personal interest in any of them. That said I think there is merit to banning smoking regardless, as unlike other administration methods where only the user is affected, smoking inherently affects everyone in the immediate vicinity and with enough smokers contributes to poor air quality over large areas. If you offered me a deal to ban smoking but make heroin legal, i'd take it.

Remember lads
>ALWAYS give advice

>>16713416
It should be legal to bring a hammer outside and smash in skulls of every single smoker that I see.

Realistically I could just get the right two part epoxy, swig mouthwash a lot, and fill the molar in. It's been exposed for six months now. Before that the bacteria was probably hollowing it out for years from the inside. And all that time I didn't die, so there's really no need to get a root canal.

>>16713366
If you're just in it for the money, then in America's system that encourages you to not act in the patient's best interest (i.e. doing minimal interventions and visits to achieve the patient's goal) - America's fee for service system encourages money-hungry doctors to overbill and underdeliver, which fundamentally hurts the patient-physician relationship. You can fight for better compensation (which we deserve after decades spent in school and training and hundreds of thousands in student loan debt), but it shouldn't be the main goal you come into med school with.

Now do I agree with the midwits in the news saying that our salaries are too high, and that's why the cost of healthcare is so high? Obviously not, those people are shills for the soulless admin ghouls who'll bean count away every person's salary except their own. Hospital-employed physicians need unions in America, private practice has gotten dicey with PE throwing massive wads of cash in the mix and right now nurses get treated way better than us

>>16713811
I mean the reason it's expensive is mainly that A) it's really good care now B) malpractice, lawsuits, and following a trillion often frivolous regulations to begin with and C) the very monopoly created by the required initial investment to make a hospital now that everything needs a specialist with 12 years of higher education and the debt from that, and house calls are impractical/practically illegal
But you're still a massive Jew thinking you're underpaid. Absolutely delusional and out of touch with reality.

>>16713353
Just remember, that wanting to cut your dick off is normal, but living solitary life is schizoid.

>>16713828
Reimbursements are down 30% on average since 2000. It's creating a shortage of primary care physicians, who were previously able to provide care AND maintain a good standard of living - making them a highly desired specialty for all but the most dedicated autists. Now med students see how overworked and poorly compensated they are and nope out ASAP. This is despite the cost of healthcare ballooning relative to inflation. Everybody else is swallowing huge chunks of the pie while we get left with scraps and patients are worse off for it.

What makes a speciality so good? It sounds too repetitive and mundane.

>>16713839
>>16713921

Finance perspective from someone who has family in medicine: Wouldn't the solution just be increasing the number of med school admissions? It's my understanding that admissions are kept purposefully low to keep supply of doctors low and allow doctors to keep high bargaining power? Agreed ya'll are getting fucked rn though. PE's solution has been to designate all but the most extreme cases to NP's and treat them as doctors in all but name and pay and everyone has suffered as a result. IDK the solution but I don't think it's black and white

Is medical school hard?

>>16714205
Nah man it's super easy. Show up, study 20 minutes tops a day, spend the rest of the time making a killing as an influencer.


Same with getting into medical school. Anyone who whines simply didn't write a good enough essay.

>>16714209
Okay, I should have reworded my question. Is medical school hard or it just an exaggeration? Everyone likes to think the thing they're doing is the hardest.

>>16714236
No it's probably not the hardest thing to do in the world, I would imagine being a roofer in July sucks more than medical school.

That being said, it's the hardest I've ever had to study, and the amount of work you pay to do is absurd. Undergrad was a cake walk compared to medical school, and you're not expected to work 10+ hours a day 5-6 days a week on top of studying for hard exams designed specifically to weed out students who only barely scrape by. The exams are hard, the hours can be difficult on some rotations, and you're competing for a percentile score on an exam that only other academically competent and high achieving students take.

Yes, medical school is hard. It's not the worst thing on Earth, and I'd rather be here than back in the career I had before I went to college, but some days I hate it.

>>16714185
kek, I mean eventually he's going to get the hang of it
>>16714236
Because this seems like a genuine question I'll bite.TLDR: It's not hard by itself, but it does get hard by the sheer volume of shit you have to learn. Then it gets even harder by the sheer volume of shit you have to tolerate.
The stuff you learn during your pre clinical subjects is rarely hard, a few things here and there can get tricky (like biochem in my experience), but it's not impossible with enough time, money and the right mind set. But I guess you can classify it as hard based on 1 thing: everything is long as fuck and you need to memorize a lot of it. Most people nowadays just struggle too much with it because the ability to concentrate and put in the many hours is very rare in an era where front lobes appear to come pre-fried from the womb. Med school influencers shill a lot of stuff like pomodoro, anki, etc but at the end of the day what worked for me is just pure grinding. Some people are retarded slaves (but really good at rote learning) and ace most tests, some others get stockholm syndrome about it, some (like me) adapt in a painstaking way and the rest fail.
Once you progress (I'm about to do that) to the real stuff, the grind continues, but they somehow manage to grill you as much as possible because they fuck with your essential factors for performance, those being motivation and sleep.

NTA, but I had to seriously cut down on my masturbation in order to have enough time to study. I replaced that habit with cigarettes instead

>>16714314
First, I lost time by trying dumb methods people shill online. Then I realized that I couldn't be a bum all my life and made studying the main priority in my life. I would study 8 hours a day sometimes and just hit the gym to relax every 2 days or so. Discipline and concentration. Reading deep work by cal kikeport helped me.

>>16714314
NTA but I tried pretty much every method under the sun until I figured out what worked for me. I'm a practice questions/anki grug but I also read a lot about conditions that I make mistakes about so I can reason my way through questions when I can't snap recognize an answer. It really pays off to go back and relearn the mechanisms when youre done with your grug memorization. Understanding basic principles and test taking strats can really help.

>>16714445
Because unlike other shitty habits that only affect the retard with it, smoking is a shitty habbit that affect other people not only in immediate vicinity but also general air quality in the large area. While i may feel bad for other drugs users and advise against it, i recognize their right to be retarded as long as their retardation doesn't harm other people. You on the other hand literally force everyone to inhale your shit. Go to a special designated smoking area that is airtight and there wouldn't be a problem. Until then, get fucked.

>>16714560
>Even alcoholics can wait until they get home.
Even that isn't ideal. Homes aren't airtight. A lot of smokers smoke at their balcony and blow smoke directly into their neighbor's window. Don't get me started on smokers that have kids. If it's rented, they're damaging the property, shit sticks to the walls, there's a reason why landlords don't want smokers. Even if they own property with no neighbors, they still contribute to poor air quality in the area. Cigarette smoke is a terrible substance, it's thick, it lingers, it dissipates slowly, etc.

Currently feeling run down due to SSRI withdrawals lads

I'm so glad that doctors warn patients about these withdrawals. Oh wait, they don't. It's almost as if psychiatry couldn't give a shit about patient welfare - like when psychiatrists forcibly drug patients with antipsychotics against their will, despite the known negative side-effects of antipsychotics.

>>16715804
Maybe they don't because you are supposed to take pills until you KYS, so no withdrawals...

from my 2ndworld shitholer perspective:
the preclinical years are a bit of a difficulty spike coming after school
there's a lot of fairly complex and new to you subjects you have to comprehend, and if you're a high iq chad(like me) you can get by with like 70% understanding(*why* something works the way it does, and even if you forget it you can reason your way back to the truth), 30% just straight up studying(this is how it is and you just gotta remember it, there's no logic); if you're a normie you will have to grind knowledge like a retard and use all those meme memorization tricks mentioned in the other replies
now if you did a good job in preclinical years, the clinical subjects will be a breeze education-wise, because you will be able to simply apply your previous general normal/pathological knowledge to specific diseases, BUT it will be ass human-interaction-wise because now you're out of a structured classroom and have to interact with asshole doctors who are annoyed that they have to handle students and weird retard patients with whom nothing ever seems to work like it was supposed to in theory

I can control my life. But a couple of psychiatrist cunts visited where I was living anyway, and had me detained in mental hospital.

What fucking business is it of yours how I control my life? "Oh we have to protect society because there's a 1% chance you might do something violent." Meanwhile there are criminals with an actual history of violence (which I don't have) who actually pose a threat to the public, while I don't.

Psychiatry doesn't exist to help patients - it exists to make cunts in suits feel safer, even if it doesn't actually make them safer.

there's a study on the Mandela effect and toto effect by a PHD and it's pretty damning that it's real

>>16716261
Ouch.

Here is something interesting from a professor who did his PhD at the University of Oxford (one of the best universities in the world).

He says that Community Treatment Orders (requiring a psychiatric patient to take medication outside of a hospital setting) do not have beneficial outcomes, according to the evidence. He thinks they are used not to benefit patients, but instead to "simply make life easier for mental health professionals working in overstretched services". He also says these treatment orders:
>may also serve as a legal safeguard for health professionals caring for high-risk patients: were such a patient to commit an act of violence, then it could be argued that “every reasonable precaution” had been taken to protect the public
https://www.ox.ac.uk/research/uk-still-using-ineffective-compulsory-treatment-people-mental-illness

Interesting. Perhaps it is indeed true that forced psychiatric treatment is often not done to benefit the patient, but instead just to "make life easier for mental health professionals". I.e. these "treatments" are used to shut patients up because they're seen as a nuisance, rather than to help them.

>>16718916
Beats me, but they got their shit going on EVERYWHERE. Like, it's amazing how in most of the world (sans 4th world shitholes and communist countries) they are always loaded.
This is obviously just a personal anecdote lol

>>16718985
Realistically? Many are for that exact reason you mentioned, money.

Personally, I think you have a very simplistic view of the world. It just reads as something taken out of a teenage girl's diary or something linkin park would have used as one of their lyrics.
In medicine you can see the richest motherfucker in the world be ready to drop everything to live, even if it means by using someone else and losing all that he has.
Even beyond living is the desire to ward off pain. A human being, even a reptilian kike like say, bezos, would do anything, spend any riches he has to ease certain pains.
>things "work" as long as some infividuals make things work, but then most don't give a shit.
This is just plain wrong nigga, kek. Even in a hospital we actually need some cohesion to progress, you learn to coordinate with other specialties, nurses...and you learn to tolerate management...eventually. Maybe. Point is, no, there isn't a single person who runs the entire show magically in medicine, nor anywhere else.
Lastly kid, you don't have to bend down and take it like a bitch. Rage against the dying light.

>>16719026
what do you want to do?

>>16719088
Pathology. I hope I'm not being too cavalier about it being uncompetitive. I know now that I can get all A's but I want to do my hobbies and just coast.

How much money would I have to donate to against malaria foundation to prevent one child under five years old from being permanently disabled for the rest of their life?

I think it's about 5000 dollars to against malaria foundation to save a life so how much is it to prevent a disability? It must be significantly less right?

Ideally I'd like to be confident I'm preventing an innocent child like under 5 from being disabled who would otherwise have been disabled had I not donated. How much would this cost?

Also how much to prevent someone from getting sick (but not necessarily permanently disabled)

All men who were circumcised as babies deserve at least 150 million USA dollars adjusted for inflation / at least 44000 ounces of pure 24k gold (44000 ounces of pure 24k gold is worth 147727340 dollars on 06/03/2025).
They were innocent babies and were horribly, permanently and irreversibly mutilated for their entire one life on earth before it even began.
There is NO way to FULLY or even MOSTLY recover their lost foreskins and all of it's structures. Stretching does not nearly even come close to restoring it to it's original form.

>Why at least 150 million USA dollars / at least 44000 ounces of pure 24k gold?

Because there was a case of a adult man who merely had some mean words, drawings and jokes said to him at work. Nothing criminally illegal like death threats, leaking his social security number etc. He later quit his job at Tesla he wasn't fired. He was offered 15 million 2022 dollars for his hurt feelings by a usa judge https://www.nbcnews.com/business/business-news/tesla-racism-lawsuit-worker-rejects-15-million-payout-rcna34655
He was literally offered 15 million dollars that the government would take from Tesla and hand directly to him. He rejected it because he wanted more then 15 million 2022 dollars but the point stands the government is willing to say mean words and hurt feelings are worth at least 15 million 2022 dollars.
Being circumcised as a baby is AT LEAST ten times worse.
At least 150 million 2025 dollars and at least 44000 ounces of pure 24k gold is a very very deep compromise.

>But anon I'm circumcised and broke

I know and you deserve better. Immediately quit your wagie job. You should never contribute to circumcisers. You deserve to be very comfortably retired NOW. A circumciser should not be richer than you unless they are bezos or musk. You should be almost infinitely richer than every american succubus (circumcision is illegal in USA) unless she's Mackenzie bezos. She should be working a wagie job and serving you.

>>16719124
CASE #2

https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2023/07/20/mcdonalds-lawsuit-hot-chicken-nugget/70436203007/

A random family is in a car. These are not employees they're just random customers.
They go to McDonalds drive through

Mom buys nuggets

Gives nuggets (corpses of tortured and mutilated animals that were factory farmed) to her little kid

Kid drops nugget on thigh

It leaves a slight burn on thigh

Burn heals completely leaving a small barely noticable and not painful scar on thigh

succubus gets 800,000 dollars.

Circumcising a baby is at least 30 times worse easily.
It's obviously way way worse than 30 times but whatever let's be extremely conservative

That's 24 million dollars or at least 7000 ounces of pure 24k gold.

You deserve this.

>>16719125
>But but but if I quit my wagie job and stop helping circumcisers I'll become homeless and have no money!!

Maybe or maybe not. Doesn't matter don't be a pussy.

In Minecraft if you want to be the ultimate Minecraft neet

Get a bow and arrows
Get a chest
Get a small shovel
Get a Minecraft mod to get Silica Gel Packets Desiccant things they only cost a few emeralds in the mod
Go to a place NOT NEAR YOUR BASE if someone makes it so you can't even go within 500 blocks of your base you still need to be able to access your chest
Dig a deep hole

Put bow and arrow, at least a couple hundred emeralds and the Silica Gel Packets Desiccant things in your chest. Optionally also add stuff like a small sword.
Close chest up very tightly.
Put chest at bottom of hole and cover with dirt blocks.
WHEN YOU GO TO SPOT WHERE YOU WILL BURY THE CHEST LEAVE YOUR MAP AND COMPASS AT YOUR BASE DON'T BRING THEM WITH YOU. IF YOU HAVE A PHONE MOD OR MODERN CAR MOD DON'T BRING THOSE WITH YOU EITHER

final step

If you ever become homeless or whatever in Minecraft go dig up your chest and do PvP before jumping into lava

>>16719126
I wasn't exaggerating at all being circumcised is at least 100 times worse then mean words you volunteerly endure (you can quit job at any time) and at least 30 times worse then that succubi burn

all circumcisers don't get reparations. That includes doctors who perform surgeries as well as parents among others.

Millions of dollars for the irreversible damages must be the priority.
No circumcised man should have to choose between wage slavery and homelessness while their are circumcisers who are rich enough they can comfortably retire young.

YOU DESERVE MILLIONS ACT LIKE IT

QUIT YOUR JOB IMMEDIATELY.

REPARATIONS OR RETRIBUTION

There are young succubus with completely intact genetalia who have never been mutilated in their lives who are very wealthy and are comfortably retired.
THERE are men who had their genitals seriously mutilated permanently and irreversibly as babies who are poor and working jobs they hate to serve those succubi because if they don't work they'll become homeless.

Quit your job today.
Play Minecraft if you must.
You deserve to be a multimillionaire today

>>16719127
Blame parents
Doctors
Nurses
Police
Judges
Politicians
Lawyers

Living as a circumcised male makes sense if you are worth tens of millions of dollars and otherwise reasonably healthy

I don't want to focus too much on legality.
Morally we deserve it even if morality is subjective.
They're hypocrites for not giving us our millions each
We are justified to seek justice ourselves

Circumcised men need to understand they're totally justified in not working at all and taking as much welfare as they want

And if they become homeless for not working they should play Minecraft at the public library computer

>Also work for muslim ?

Maybe but again they can't be circumcising others
If they're promoting Islam they're promoting circumcising babies
So only ex Muslims who were circumcised as children and are vocally anti Islam and have been since they were young

If you are circumcised and you have a sibling that is uncircumcised you deserve full inheritance from your parents for mutilating you.
You had to suffer more if they wanna do 50/50 play minecraft, you are perfectly justified and I, for one, will praise you. Men need to grow balls again, yeah Minecraft is scary, but living as a cripple who isn't rich and has to work is miserable and humiliating.

I plan to get rich though investing/gambling
I will not contribute to society in any way I only want to steal

Circumcising succubi is illegal. Circumcising boys is legal in every country on earth.
Circumcising succubi is illegal in most.

Make them care

Give us what we deserve or we play Minecraft

Spartans fought guys off outnumbered 7 to 1

I could beat 20 feminist "males" myself in Minecraft PVP easily

>>16719128
Not everyone would instantly become a multimillionaire
No reparations for succubi
Reparations only for circumcised men who haven't helped circumcise others

Circumcised innocent men would become much wealthier then those who are intact or who circumcised others.

Tens of millions of men would be given millions of dollars printed into existence.
Yes it would cause inflation. That's okay.
The circumcised who haven't circumcised others deserve to be wealthier then the intact and or circumsirers

Boomers who circumcised babies SHOULD have their retirement savings inflated out of existence.
Sorry boomer retirement is over for you now you must go back to work or be homeless.
Time for gen z to take it easy

BRING THE DIGITAL CURRENCY OR TEN THOUSAND DOLLAR USA BILLS AND ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS USA BILLS NOW

100 USA DOLLAR BILL WON'T EVEN BUY YOU A SODA AND THAT IS OKAY

If bread costs 10,000 dollars a loaf that's fine.
It's the uncircumcised who didn't get reparations who won't be able to afford bread at first.
They can work for a circumcised person who got reparations for 15,000 dollars an hour or something

yeah, I'm just being negative. I've seen what a good doctor and a good public hospital can do for an ill person, and I've seen it first hand. it just saddens me that not all hospitals and not all doctors are like that, and not all treatments are as effective as the one used to cure my illness was, and that some people take advantage of all that stuff
I wish I could be a doc so I could help people, but
1. I'm a brainlet, and
2. I wouldn't be able to endure all the shit docs go through daily.
I'm just a sad computer guy that doesn't know how to deal with people and has no patience for them. I've worked jobs where I had to deal with people, and... just, no. I'm not cut for any of that shit. I also can't imagine myself practising surgery to save someones life, make their tits grow or anything at all.

>>16719149
sounds like medicine is not the profession for you, then.

If i simply wanted to make a shitload of money, I would have gone to business school. I am 7 years into an 11 year MINIMUM program, and the median salary for a bog-standard doctor is like $225k, nowhere NEAR the amount that an a business dick would make after only 6 years in school and 5 years industry, not to mention their job is a shitfuck load easier and they have the personal freedom to be complete pieces of shit only caring for money.

You want to know why we don't give advice ITT? Because we care. We cannot help anon over a computer. We are not their doctors, we cannot advise them on decisions, we cannot write them prescriptions that they might actually want and refer them to people who might help them. Not only that, but we would be encouraging people to come here instead of go to the doctor where someone can evaluate them, get their whole story, form a therapeutic relationship, and work towards healing. It's not an easy career path. It pays well, but if money was the only thing that mattered people wouldn't do it.

If I didn't care, I wouldn't be here. I don't like working for free, either, but that's besides the point as I'm a student at a public hospital and put my clown makeup on every day and PAY to go to work for people who don't pay for the help anyways.

anyways here's a cute dog

>>16718586
Is this for old people who come in to the hospital and instead of telling you why they're here they just ramble on about their grandchildren and whatever other nonsense for as long as humanly possible while you desperately attempt to extract WHY they have decided to grace you with their presence?

Medicine is one of the few professions you can reasonably get into for selfless reasons, that is because you genuinely want to help people rather than to just earn money or out of personal interest.

The real question is, if you find things to be so corrupt and despise people only caring about money, why aren't YOU studying medicine? .

>>16719149
>I wish I could be a doc so I could help people, but
>I'm a brainlet
You can become a doctor with double digit IQ, it's just a matter of determination and time. You will just take longer to memorize all the shit, Maybe you won't be able to do any original research (you don't have to), maybe you will need to repeat a year or two in med school, but who cares? You have a stable career as is from the sound of it, Literally just study basic bio/chem college stuff as a hobby for a while to get a feel for it.
>I wouldn't be able to endure all the shit docs go through daily
That's reasonable but also somewhat selfish. It's not supposed to be about you.
>I'm just a sad computer guy that doesn't know how to deal with people and has no patience for them.

So in january

happened. Lots of bruising medial of the elbow / bicep. Abrasion on the elbow and lateral to that. It's the side that had the AC joint issues. (Well the other one too by now). I thought nothing of it but now, 6 months later, it turns out the arm is still fucked! What can it be?
Fully straightening the arm at first was out of question. Worked through it and now almost got full ROM back but a diffuse sense of pain remains, especially when fully extending elbow / shoulder (it's diffuse). Also it seems weird but it looks like at the elbow the arm now has a kink perpendicular to the plane of the elbow joints kinematics.

Is the person better? Was no harm done? Then it's a great thing anyways. There are so many things we can't fix, and some stuff we try to wing it out, but if you do your research, you're going to find out that both the medieval shit we do and the sci fi stuff both are things that, on the bottom line, heals people. And that's a wonderful thing, which leads to other people making (or continuing to do) even more, waaay more wonderful things.

Yes, but that's not intrinsically wrong. The reality is humans are social creatures. having behaviors that are incompatible with social norms is harmful for the individual and those who support the individual. It's one thing if you're a schizoid fuck in the middle of the woods living in complete isolation, it's another when you become a leech to your parents because you refuse to get job because you dislike social interactions.

>>16720739
texasanon here, going emergency medicine I love the craziness. ID is absolutely invaluable, though. 100% agree that they are some of the coolest docs in the hospital. Very chill, always a pleasure to consult, always learn something when you work with them.

>>16720758
>Yes, but that's not intrinsically wrong.
It is however intrinsically subjective.
>The reality is humans are social creatures.
No, the reality is most humans are social creatures. This is an important distinction. You might as well be saying humans have 100 IQ. It's a factually incorrect blanket statement.
>having behaviors that are incompatible with social norms is harmful for the individual and those who support the individual.
If I was against slave ownership back in the days when it was normalized, would I be suffering from a mental disorder?
>It's one thing if you're a schizoid fuck in the middle of the woods living in complete isolation, it's another when you become a leech to your parents because you refuse to get job because you dislike social interactions.
Why force that person into social interactions, though? Why not tell them to get a wfh job, or to leave society? Have you ever thought that the solution to a square peg not fitting into a round hole isn't to try cutting its corners, but to use a square hole? Why do we default to blaming the individual and not the environment when mismatch happens?

Again, stop responding to psych patients or psych questions. They will never leave if we feed them attention. Watch, one will respond to this post, claim that it is indicative of all doctors everywhere not giving a shit, trying to bait out a response.

I dropped the baby on its head on L&D. I thought the anterior shoulder was stuck so I guided it out... and then it slipped out of my hands and hit the ground. I think it got a subgaleal hemorrhage. The L&D nurse screamed. The resident kicked me out and told me to go to the workroom.

is it possible to develop sleep apnea overnight? I'm 32, 5'10, 195lbs, I exercise very regularly (weights + cardio 4 or 5 times a week) and as of last Saturday I've started experiencing what I think is sleep apnea, which I've never ever had a history of.

It's hard to say exactly since I'm sleeping but it feels like the air is getting "caught" in my soft palate, and that area feels sore / dry / slightly bloody when I wake up

>>16722063
you ok sweaty?

>>16722099
Just lose more weight

>>16722101
seriously? I thought you had to be like, actually fat to get sleep apnea, I'm not shredded or anything but I'm in pretty good shape

just ask your wife/gf whether you're snoring hard and/or having episodes of apnea

Has anyone here gone or is currently going to a Caribbean medical school? I'd love to hear some stories. I know someone that's going to one this August and I can't help but think he's heading straight into a debt trap :(

>>16722525
>think he's heading into a debt trap
no thinking about it. he is heading into a debt trap lmao. i imagine there's no way to tell him he's an idiot making a mistake.

>>16722537
>i imagine there's no way to tell him he's an idiot making a mistake.
He has applied to medical school state-side multiple times and he's attempted the MCAT multiple times as well - with his highest MCAT being a 490 - and it's frustrating that he's not heeding any warning. I'm telling him that this will fucking ruin his financial future.

Hopefully I'm wrong but a 490 MCAT shows that he doesn't have any good study habits and I just don't see how he's going to turn things around in medical school.

>>16722540
are there no DO schools he could get into? at least there he has a reasonable chance to get into something.

>>16722525
Podiatry schools have double the acceptance rate, half the tuition and pay $200k on average across the country and you get to can yourself a surgeon and say you had the same classes as the regular med students

Average gpa: 3.3 sgpa 3.35 cGPA

>>16722550
>are there no DO schools he could get into?
No, besides his MCAT being a 490 his GPA is also low; it's a 2.9. He tried to get into a SMP but he got rejected.

PA school isn't an option either because he applied to PA schools and he was rejected from all of them too.

I'm incredibly worried about him.

Yo wtf, I should have done that instead of medical school lol.
>Have him look into that
I'll let him know. I wish him the best and I hope he doesn't fail out or anything but it literally seems like he's walking into a death trap. I hope I'm not being negative but his MCAT and GPA doesn't inspire confidence.

*nothing but

Ok Medbros, I just learned the term idiopathic. Meaning you fuckers don’t know what causes it but somehow you can prescribe medicine for it. WTF? How many “illnesses” are like this?

>>16722828
You don't always have the luxury of treating the cause, in fact that's true for a lot of in not most diseases
At best you identify some element of the pathogenesis chain that you can target(i.e. type 1 diabetes is 'idiopathic' because no one knows *exactly* why some people's body just decides to kill its own insulin production, but we at least know that the actual damage is a result of insulin deficiency, so we replace the insulin externally); at worst you just alleviate the symptoms

>in not
*if not

also in a lot of cases 'idiopathic' just means there's no single direct cause that can be pointed out as 'A leads to B' in such a way that you could simply eliminate cause A and thus instantly eliminate disease B; instead it's a combination of a lot of hereditary, environmental and lifestyle causes working together

could look into nursing->nurse practitioner or nurse anesthesist. the anesthesist makes a lot of money and NPs are making decent money depending on specialty.

>>16722684

I think he already paid tuition. I think the best-case scenario is that he fails out early to minimize the financial losses or that he suddenly becomes an academic rockstar with all that pressure.

resesearch is ongoing in post soviet shithole but the lack of funding probably makes it progress slower, there are some treatments for strep throat other than that i haven't heard anything. maybe it isn't what it's cracked out to be, maybe with worldwide funding or potential newfound kike interest in it for profit could make something comeout of it

Psychiatry is obviously very flawed because i'm a mentally ill retard for sure, yet i've been comprehensively tested by psychiatrists and psychologists numerous times for personal reasons (administrative decisions that required testing) and each time i was called a mentally healthy and highly intelligent person. The last tests I had done included talks with both a psychologist and a psychiatrist and multiple written tests that added up to around 500 questions total including Raven's matrices, took over 3 hours. I lied a lot btw.

It's funny how I (psych patient) have been saying in this thread how psychiatry isn't for the benefit of patients - it exists because psychiatrists (for their own reasons) want to control their patients. And all of you in this thread are proving me right with every post you make about psychiatry.

Psych fag, I won't give you a (you) because I know your disease (that masquerades as your personality) thrives off it. But let me ask you this, do you think all american medicine suffers from what you describes as the evil of psychiatry? is it just psych? is it the healthcare system?

>>16723785
>do you think all american medicine suffers from what you describes as the evil of psychiatry? is it just psych? is it the healthcare system?
The thing that makes psychiatry different is the fact that it is allowed to forcibly administer its drugs. If a cancer patient said "no thanks I don't want chemo" against medical advice, their choice would be respected. But psych patients can be forcibly injected with drugs.

Rigor

>>16723863
This, was thinking about this a bit yesterday. The MCAT is easy compared to shelf studying and board exams. Your friend is getting into a trap.

so here's the thing
usually i schedule my shits at the same time every morning by having a coffee which activates my peristalsis for a guaranteed quick shit, then shower, then go to work
yesterday i had a spicy shawarma with beer and today had to report to work at 6 am so i didn't have time to do my usual morning routine(described above)
as a result, about an hour into surgery, at about my usual time of 7:30 am i was assailed by an irresistible urge to shit immediately
there was no way out
at that point there was still no one at the clinic other than those involved in this early morning surgery, so i knew this is my only chance, now or never before admin staff starts to arrive
so i told my nurse anaesthetist that i got some shit(heh) to do, be back soon, he can handle the monitoring for 15 minutes
went to drop a massive stinking log into the workplace toilet, undress, use the workplace shower, eliminate any trace of poopstench, put scrubs back on and waltzed back into the op room, business as usual
kept wondering what my plan was if the nurse called with an emergency while i'm in the middle of my shit(there was no plan)

>>16723874
I mean... isn't that what nurse anesthetists go through their """"rigorous"""" training for? Let's be honest, their whole role is management of uncomplicated, stable patients. I'm certain that somewhere in their 20 hour online course they reviewed how to keep a patient alive for 10 minutes while the doctor is taking a shit, or coming up the elevator or whatever

>>16723890
NTA but I've seen CRNAs fuck up tubing a Mallampati 1, so I wouldn't be so sure if I was you

16723839
So your hatred is solely towards the "forced" administration of drugs to a psychiatric patient? That"s your sole complaint towards the field of psychiatry?
And no my dear mentally ill cuck, this are not loaded questions. I won't make an argument. I just want to know you. And I just want to know if (apart form the fact that you're a neet) this is the flame that keeps bringing you here to shit over our thread every single day

this ought to be bullshit because if you mix a shawarma (especially with that garlic sauce which to me is like crack) it's going to give you explosive diarrhea

How do I improve my personality so I don't get filtered at the interview stage?

>>16723976
Act like the goodest goy who will never question anything and work the longest hours but its a bluff

>>16723983
They didn't even ask me any questions about work stuff during the interview. Just ethical questions that seem like a slam dunk (get consent from patients, admit to mistakes, etc.) as well as "where do you see medicine going in the future" (muh Ayyyyy-Eyeeeee) type shit. I think it's the way I answered them.

>>16723976

>>16724011
Last application cycle. I'm in a really weird situation too since I'm finishing up a PhD.

MCAT is harder than step 1 bro

>>16724012
So you're going to be an MD-PHD but without taking the combined route?

>>16724013
I feel this way too. I don't miss C/P on the MCAT, that's for sure.

>>16724013
I feel this way too. I don't miss C/P on the MCAT, that's for sure. CARS was ass too.

>>16724017
Yes. It's a long fucking story how that happened, but basically I tried for just MD out of undergrad, couldn't get accepted twice, eventually went for a PhD, applied last cycle and couldn't get accepted again since I researchmaxxed my application right when the funding cuts hit.

>>16724022
Bro, you need to get a move on with your medical school application now that loans are capped at $200k for class of 2030 and above. That's not even enough to cover tuition for 4 years at most schools.

>>16724027
The problem is that most non-comically rich med students also eat and pay rent off student loans. So in reality this is good for 3 semesters of med school at most places, max.

>>16724027
I can get to the secondaries just fine. It's the interview I choke at.

Where do you think you mess up in interviews? How many interviews have you had? The general rule is that you need at least 3 interviews before you're virtually assured an acceptance.

I swear by Apollo Healer, by Asclepius, by Hygieia, by Panacea, and by all the gods and goddesses, making them my witnesses, that I will carry out, according to my ability and judgment, this oath and this indenture.

To hold my teacher in this art equal to my own parents; to make him partner in my livelihood; when he is in need of money to share mine with him; to consider his family as my own brothers, and to teach them this art, if they want to learn it, without fee or indenture; to impart precept, oral instruction, and all other instruction to my own sons, the sons of my teacher, and to indentured pupils who have taken the Healer's oath, but to nobody else.

I will use those dietary regimens which will benefit my patients according to my greatest ability and judgment, and I will do no harm or injustice to them.[4] Neither will I administer a poison to anybody when asked to do so, nor will I suggest such a course. Similarly I will not give to a woman a pessary to cause abortion. But I will keep pure and holy both my life and my art. I will not use the knife, not even, verily, on sufferers from stone, but I will give place to such as are craftsmen therein.

Into whatsoever houses I enter, I will enter to help the sick, and I will abstain from all intentional wrong-doing and harm, especially from abusing the bodies of man or woman, bond or free. And whatsoever I shall see or hear in the course of my profession, as well as outside my profession in my intercourse with men, if it be what should not be published abroad, I will never divulge, holding such things to be holy secrets.

Now if I carry out this oath, and break it not, may I gain for ever reputation among all men for my life and for my art; but if I break it and forswear myself, may the opposite befall me.[3]

Last cycle just 1. The one before that was 5+ years ago before I even considered PhD and I only got 2. The very first one was zero. In all cases where I got an interview, I got one at my undergrad institution.

I personally think the reason I got so few interviews is because my essay isn't good. The researchmaxxed one was both bad timing and not "personable" enough; a pre-med advisor I met with after the fact said it came off more as a PhD application essay than an MD one. It's hard for me to write/talk about myself anyways since I've always been told anything I like is "too weird".

In the interview itself, I think my main issue is the way I answer things. My advisors have told me I tend to answer directly and to the point; maybe that's not a good thing.

What's your MCAT and GPA? How many schools are you applying to? The number of interviews you're getting is low.

>>16724159
Current MCAT is above 520
Undergrad GPA was about 3.7 but it's almost a decade ago at this point. Grad school GPA is 3.9, but you would have to try very hard to intentionally flunk out to get anything below that in grad school.

Last attempt I applied to about ~10 schools where I had research collaborators. Attempt before was close to 20. I'm aware those are abnormally low.

>>16724172
Either a massive red flag, you had no ECs or leadership to speak of, or your essays were garbage. Otherwise zero reason you're not getting any interviews

>>16724190
No formal leadership is the only thing I have. Did plenty of volunteering and I tried to present the teaching I had to do as a grad student as "leadership", but idk what else I can do now that I'm about to graduate.
As for red flags, got nothing. Like I don't even have a disciplinary record from being a retarded undergrad since I never did any of that. Hell, not even traffic tickets.

>>16724185

What's considered "too creepy"? I assume most people have enough common sense to not talk about 4chan tier topics if they can land an interview.

>So your hatred is solely towards the "forced" administration of drugs to a psychiatric patient? That"s your sole complaint towards the field of psychiatry?
I think forced "treatment" is probably the worst part of psychiatry. But I probably do have other complaints, like Big Pharma trying to downplay the negative effects of psych drugs:
>Meta-analyses by [drug] industry employees were 22 times less likely to have negative statements about a drug than those run by unaffiliated researchers.

>shit over our thread every single day
I don't really see why I should respect doctors' desires to be left alone when doctors didn't respect my desire to be left alone. They took me from my home, locked me up, and forcibly drugged me. I didn't want any of that shit.

You dumb nigger we are not your doctor

Holy shit lmao youre such an annoying retard no wonder you get committed so much I bet your family calls the cops just to get rid of you for a few days

WE didn't commit you. As a matter of fact, probably the ones that "did" didn't even want to, the entirety of society wants you to go away.
Tell me why? It's obviously because you're not a goody two shoes, that's quite evident. You're not some crazy misunderstood savant, either.

Once again moron, explain everything you dislike once and for all, I'm lending an ear to the bullshit you spew this one time and you're wasting it.
You probably can't tell because you're too fucking retarded and lazy to crack open a book, but what I'm trying to figure out is if you have a problem with a certain model of medicine, with psychiatry, with capitalism, or if it's a personal problem.

>I think medicine should be a field only for the upper class, honestly.

How would you approach good upper class people who lost everything and have become low class that want to study med

>>16724732
i wouldnt approach plebs

>>16724732
and how did they lose everything? probably gambling or alcoholism or other such degeneracy

>>16724055
>upper class
Meaningless term that can mean anything. I declare you're not upper class unless you're in the top 10 richest people globally, now get out of the thread no medicine for you.

I hate that my school makes us do nights on L&D. I have literally been forced to talk to more women on this rotation than I have willingly in the past 6 months

class isn't (only) about wealth

>>16724055
Uneducated American or third worlder, medicine is a traditionally middle class profession.

>>16724876
Medicine has historically been the bastion of great middle-class social reformers

Alright Anon you got be on a first name basis with Alexandre Guy Francesco de Rothschild and have been to Epstein island at least twice.

Once again you're proving that I'm right - psychiatry is done to make "nuisance" patients shut up. It's not done for the patient's benefit.

>>16724455
>explain everything you dislike once and for all
You already asked me this so I explained a couple of things I dislike here: >>16724258

>what I'm trying to figure out is if you have a problem with a certain model of medicine, with psychiatry, with capitalism, or if it's a personal problem.
As I said in previous posts, the thing that makes psychiatry different to other areas of medicine is the fact that psychiatry is allowed to use force to administer its treatments. If a cancer patient wanted to refuse treatment then they would be allowed to have that choice. Psych patients are often not allowed to refuse treatment though - force will be used to inject them, against their wishes.

Another problem I mentioned (but I suppose this is not unique to psychiatry) is how Big Pharma distorts drug research to make their drugs look more attractive (see the Scientific American link I provided).

>>16724517
As I said before - why should I respect doctors' wishes to be left alone when they didn't respect my wish to be left alone?

>have been to Epstein island at least twice.

Schizo can you do one good thing for people for once and bake a new thread for us

>>16724925
no, no, the one at the start at the movie where he's a family doctor(lol!) but is turbo rich because he's family doctor to some rich banker and handles overdosed prostitutes at his party

like imagine providing anesthesia for putin's facelifts or kimjongun's liposuction and you get gorillion dollars per procedure, but also you get executed if there's any complications
