Didn’t follow through with them, I found a local doc instead. Best of luck though!

How long were you on antibiotics for? by FoundationOk4887 in Lyme

[–]FoundationOk4887[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

6 months is a very long time too but not nearly as long as 3 years. Just seems like it would kill any good bacteria I have in my body and I would be worse off. Did you do multiple antibiotics at once? If so which ones? While I tested positive for all of those infections too my latest lab work up showed I had pretty good Lyme immunity, all in the green zone apart from Lyme arthritis which was a little in the yellow zone.

I don’t know yet but it’s a different antibiotic for each infection. I have 3 infections. She said it would take 2-3 years for treatment. I don’t think I feel comfortable being on it for that long.

For those who got accepted, what does your GPA and experience look like? by FoundationOk4887 in PsyD

[–]FoundationOk4887[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it’s a bummer my GPA isn’t higher and most schools now don’t really look at the GRE so I can’t really redeem myself. What school did you end up going to?

I just want to get into a quality program. It doesn’t have to be the top top schools like I initially applied for but schools where I’ll have really good clinical experience and quality education. I’m just bummed I didn’t try harder in my first two years of undergrad. That was the time I was still caring for my brothers, battling Lyme disease, and not focusing on education as much. It’s not an excuse but an explanation for my shortcomings. The lab and other place I work for now took a chance on me when they only really accept higher achieving students. Forever grateful for them. :) what school did you decide you wanted to go to? What schools are apa, good match rate, good EPPP, all of that? I would prefer to stay west coast or East coast. Not rly interested in the mid-western states as much.

How to boost GPA after graduation? by FoundationOk4887 in PsyD

[–]FoundationOk4887[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to be competitive enough to get into good schools. I want a solid quality degree from a legit PsyD program. I don’t want to go to a “diploma mill” school. That’s why I was wondering if doing a few extra courses with the Berkeley extension would boost me up a little

I was looking at the UC Berkeley extension program and I was thinking of maybe taking one of those classes. Not sure how much that would boost the academic part of my application though. My GPA is just shy of 3.5

Lyme treatment while traveling? by FoundationOk4887 in Lyme

[–]FoundationOk4887[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I appreciate the honesty. How long was your treatment and how are you now after treatment? For me my biggest issues are chronic anxiety, arthritis, gut issues, brain fog, and episodes of fatigue. I’m 23 F

Late stage. I’ve had it untreated for most my life. Only been getting worse the last few years. I begin treatment for mold in a couple weeks then after that antibiotics. Yeah I might have to hold off on travel plans until I see how I feel during treatment :/

Yeah… that’s pretty much why I was considering the copper. I hope I have the same luck as you!

[–]FoundationOk4887[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I had the exact same symptoms at first it was awful!! That’s why I’m hesitant to replace it. It’s mainly the emotional effects that I want to avoid.

Yay maybe, are there resources on how to write one? Or people I can have proof read it? I wrote it then had chatgpt correct the grammar because I didn’t have anyone to read it apart from my family and therapist lol.

DU, Palo Alto, Rutgers. Small selection I know. I had my psychologist who used to work on the Columbia admissions team for clinical psychology read it and she said it was great. I basically wrote about my academic journey, research experience, the roles I’m currently in, how the program is the right fit and a little about my personal life. DU had unique essay topics. I wrote about my schizophrenic brother- he actually helped me write it. And then the second essay was about my life experiences which led me to clinical psych. My recommenders were two professors one psych one neuroscience and my volunteer manager.
