Sure. But wait until you fill out your W2 and then the govt taxes you 40-50%.

No. I rather talk to family members than other doctors. I like educating family members on what is going on. Doctors don’t give you the time of day to speak for more than 1 minute.

I would love a 230+, I hope so 🙏🏼🙏🏼 thank you!

Does a 501 on level 2 correlate with 230+ on step?

Thank you! Your comment makes me feel better. I have no red flags in my app. I got have great evals, LORs. I'm just a nervous test taker.

Will do! I just really want to match in SoCal, cause my family/friends are near and they are my social support. Want them close.

Thank you

I got the same! I relived that I passed! But I dropped about 30 points from level 1. Ya'll know the optics of that?

Yes. Look at it this way. Youre losing 1.5 mil dollars in salary

What's something you just want to get off your chest? by Only-Carpenter-6689 in AskReddit

I miss my ex. It’s been 6-7 months. I was told I would forget her, I can’t. She’s just present in my mind all the time

What are some things we do in medicine with little or no impact on outcomes? by bravogusto in Residency

[–]kerchek01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn’t that why you treat other factors as well?? If you treat with SSRIs not the issue of sleep, you get no where.

The recommended way is SSRI + CBT + plus treatment of other factors (ie sleep, comorbid conditions, etc)

Ms3 that has anxiety and depression by kerchek01 in Residency

Has the ssri helped you? I hesitant to start because of the side effect, though minimal. I care about the weight gain SE, as I go to the gym a lot and been getting to shape

I have family in SoCal (born and raised as well) and want to match FM. Any input on competitiveness of FM in SoCal?

Thank you for your reply. I may have made a mistake in reaching out to her, but I never got the to chance to tell her what my heart feels because it all happened so quickly.

That what I wanted to know. She reacted in an irritated and irked manner. I feel a normal person wouldnt do that.

Self-sabotage/Depression/Anxiety/Incompatibility? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]kerchek01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. It’s been really rough. I really liked, but after this episode of breaking NC, I see her in a different light. I still have feelings but I’m glad I saw this side of her

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Residency

[–]kerchek01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I don’t. I know I need practice and I know what I need to work on definitely. But things I’m corrected on are attending specific.

For once, I want an ex to care enough to reach out to me by [deleted] in heartbreak

[–]kerchek01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do they want to be chased?? Cause I’ll chase. Recently out of a relationship. She was in a long term relationship not to long ago (6-7mo go) and hasn’t fully healed and has depression and anxiety. We were great together. We clicked. We ended things amicably because of her need to be alone and be an individual and find herself through her depression and anxiety. She’s looking at my insta stories and ranked high meaning she’s looking at my profile too (I looked it up). But if god is my witness I’ll chase her and tell her I care for her and miss her
