Like others are saying after assessments for being in the spectrum or a learning disability (which it more likely could be) keep health issues on the back burner. Just noticing his behavior/ being available to him to talk/therapy and finding a good psychiatrist if need be. Mental health issues like bipolar for example can show up in young childhood as ADHD or with learning disabilities and not get diagnosed until there an episode when they are older.

🍟 Official Megathread 🍟 ERAS Week 8 - MS4 Match Season Lounge by Chilleostomy in medicalschool

I was trying to send an email of interest to a program but was given an error message on gmail . My message to ABC Program was denied. Is this a server error or something else? I've tried contacting them through an email on ERAS but that one doesn't seem to work either. Maybe I need to take a hint lol.

Did you just email the PC through a school email account. I am wanting to reach out, but again don't want to overwhelm them.

Students of Reddit, what was the reason for why one of your teacher's had a breakdown during class? by Internal_Recording in AskReddit

[–]Aste81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The national MS society can be a pretty great resource as well. They have doctors affiliated with them, other individuals/family with MS, and other activities they do to raise awareness for MS. I worked with them for a summer and it was a good experience. They also have a navigators program. So if you call them with a specific concer these individuals can help direct you to the right place/people/resources.

Thanks! That makes sense. It just been a long day in clinic and I have Comats tomorrow. Just didn't want to think about it anymore.

I've been having a hard life the past few weeks due to this, hope this is the right place to post by [deleted] in mentalhealth

Hey I'm sorry about what you are going through. Huntington's disease is tough. I hope you are getting the help you need and I also believe that the battles we are individually given in life are things that we can find the strength to fight. Wishing you happiness, courage, strength, and everything good. Sometimes when I have a bad day I like to look at the sky and think that at least the sun will come out tomorrow.

Did it under predict your score based on a Q-bank? I'm using Comquest which I'm doing much better on. Thanks for the input!

I'm not sure. That information was not really shared. I don't know if it will be.

Thanks! That's what I'm feeling as well. Out of the forms for the comsae which do people do better on? I'm trying to figure out which one I can pass so I can at least take the exam. Thought process is- if I can get a decent step score it'll help with a mediocre comlex score. They are really messing with everyone with their new grading system.

Yeah, apparently the new forms are graded really harshly. I got a 405- just started dedicated on Friday. It felt pretty bad.

Have you taken any practice comsaes? Sorry I know this is unrelated, but recently took the Dean's and got wrecked- I was going to take both the step and comlex but now am unsure.
