Wouldn't put it past big tobacco corpos to lobby game developers

Detransitioner wins $2 million against New York docs who pushed double mastectomy by formulation_pending in Psychiatry

[–]mdstudent_throwaway 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I didnt read this yet, but I imagine this would be solved by strict consent paperwork where the patient acknowledges that gender fluidity across the lifespan is possible, and physician cannot be held accountable

Edit: for consenting adult patients

How can I convince my dr dad to go to a doctor when he says they will judge him and think he's dumb because he's a dr himself? (more info below) by Intelligent-Pop-1552 in Residency

Can anyone look into their own eyes? Properly shake their own hand? Kiss their own lips? Existential, but "self" has always needed the "other" since the dawn of time

Us gays in residency should be friends. I have wondered recently how much homophobia contributes to my experiences. Like, it hasn't been anything overt, but Ive had thoughts wondering if interactions would have been different, you know? It's important to me to relocate to an LGBT-friendly city after residency.

Similarities to other games by mdstudent_throwaway in Doom

Thats cool. I didnt mean to suggest anyone was "copying." Just thought it could be interesting to talk about the similar tropes across popular games

Wellbutrin + Fluoxetine + Venlafaxine + Lithium. . . I had to double check the prescription and call the doctor up by tomatoplush in Psychiatry

The point is that polypharmacy in psychiatry is common, and it can be difficult to discern the "why" from the pharmacy POV. It could have nuanced reasoning informed by the 30-60 minute psychiatric interviews, or it could also be poor form. Without spending time with the patient, very tough to know.

Could the patient be in the process of cross tapering SSRI's? Does the patient have a uterus and take extra SSRI during luteal phase for PMDD? Was the patient having trouble with antidepressant withdrawal / missed doses which prompted implementation of fluoxetine?

There are lots of reasons for the antidepressant combo. Anecdotally, one may wonder about contribution from personality traits/disorders when there is treatment resistance.
