A lovely secondary prompt.
Why is my courageous defeat of obsessive compulsive disorder (an illness I never knew I had) not "okay" to mention on this application? Why is my Zoloft usage framing me as a poor future physician? When they ask for illness, do they really mean adolescent cancers/fibromyalgia/etc.?
What about psychiatric illnesses that are also real and agonizing?
Overall, it just hurts that I can't be genuine. I cannot share what is under my sleeve that positions me as empathetic and compassionate.
If you want to see if an M.D. candidate (talking to adcoms) can practice personal growth, then let him speak.
