I'm of two minds on "Tik Tok mental health discourse." On the one hand, it's great that people are talking about mental health; on the other hand, there's a lot of work to be done in the room with clients when it comes to exploring their attachments to diagnostic labels and concepts. "CPTSD" and...

I didn't want to create a whole new thread, but I had some questions. I'm not originally from Chicago but will be ranking it highly 2/2 wife's family and job. I liked Rush, and I understand the previous issues have largely been resolved. That being said, I'm having trouble comparing it to other...

All the other threads were a little dated. Any thoughts on going to Riverside or Modesto, where would you go? Thanks.

I have received the Army HPSP scholarship, but just recently received a full tuition scholarship from my state school. It is an expensive state and I'll need to take out some loans for living expenses (20k or less a year), but now with the money incentive gone I am reevaluating if I should take...

Hi, I'm considering doing a small research project on the side, on victim mentality/victim identity, and I don't know how to get started. Most research I've come across are either regarding the politics of collective victimhood, legal aspects of of victimhood, and psychology of victim blaming...

I already asked this question in the med students forum, but I wanted to hear you guys' take. I hope this is allowed, lol. I was curious. Most fields that require very intense amounts of training require some form of indoctrination or programming. I assume that's true for the field of medicine...

Hey all! I'm a student at a US MD school that's super interested in EM, and Chicago is a city that seems to be a great spot for an EM residency. I know for a while now U Chicago, which is located near the South Side, refrained having a level 1 trauma center to avoid trauma overload and...

Edit: In case anybody finds this thread in the future, wanted to report back that my nervousness with critical patients was indeed temporary (and now I'm seriously leaning toward EM with an emphasis on CC). The advice I got here was solid and I appreciate everyone taking the time to help me...

Who should run traumas and who does at your institution? Does one specialty do a better job than the other? How does in house vs home call effect your outcomes?

Alright, I searched the threads, but didn't come up with much. One post from 2011 suggested doing a literature search to find people who are doing this right now.... But since it hasn't been brought up in five years, I'll have another go. I'd like to dedicate my clinical work to victims of sex...
