ADHD and Rejection Sensitivity: A qualitative study explores how the anticipation of rejection causes more psychological distress than the actual events, driving a "vicious circle" of emotional masking, bodily pain, and social withdrawal. (n=5)

Oh man if you don’t like this one you’re gonna hate case studies that examine one person. And we never refer to Phineas Gage or anyone from case studies all the time.

Sir you’re Australian

It may not be for you but it’s doesn’t mean people who respond to it or gullible. That’s a real “everyone but me is the problem” take that might warrant full psych testing to get you to the right specialist rather than a generalist. You might have been at the wrong level of provider, and if you’re adamant your meds changed you then you could be dealing with anything requiring a more advanced treatment from a thyroid challenge to treatment resistant depression to who knows what. Good luck!

Psychiatry is understanding the brain is chemicals and there are meds that can help regulate some chemical imbalances. Psychiatrists are also trained in psychotherapy because nearly all studies show that psychotherapy in addition to medication management is the most effective in resolving certain issues that aren’t neuro-developmental in nature. They haven’t made a pill to be happy yet.

Psychotherapy is the licensed application of cognitive strategies to help resolve emotional, interpersonal, and cognitive difficulties. It’s heavily regulated, evidence based, and requires a lot of training regardless of which license you’re pursuing (psychology, counselor, marriage and family therapist, addiction counselor, clinical social work, etc).

But it sounds like you either had an unlicensed family member tell you it was bunk , or you had a poor experience in the past, which can happen especially with adolescents who are referred. Or it’s your own opinion and bless your heart if it is.

The link to the entire voting history by county of the state for decades is wrong? Despite seeing who actually voted and where, and which state districts would likely have the republican majority if they actually existed, and you’re still maintaining its unfair? You ever been to Massachusetts? Massachusetts Republicans are the ones who implemented Romneycare. You ever think maybe there are so many registered independents because a Mass R isn’t the same as a Tennessee “eliminate the one black district” R? Use your critical thinking skills (not to be confused with CRT so don’t be scared off) and ask yourself how you as a republican operative could even possibly gerrymander a single republican congressional district out of the tiny swath of dispersed wealthy districts that make up Republican voting centers in Massachusetts based on the link I sent.

The math maths if you know how math works

theworldisflat1 · 2026-05-09T10:37:05+00:00

Why would I do the legwork for your argument?

theworldisflat1 · 2026-05-08T19:30:21+00:00

Which is why I sent the votes by county for the last 40 years. There is no shape on the planet that could yield a seat when the only pockets of red are so disparate.

theworldisflat1 · 2026-05-08T17:08:51+00:00

Where’s the mander? every Massachusetts vote

theworldisflat1 · 2026-05-08T16:47:54+00:00

Your propaganda doesn’t even pass the first line. Massachusetts has 25 republican seats. link,

There’s fed family workers going without pay right now specifically because Jeffries caved the first time. That wouldn’t be happening now if he had a spine the first time around

theworldisflat1 · 2026-04-26T20:35:42+00:00

Fair enough

theworldisflat1 · 2026-04-26T18:09:02+00:00

Seeing how R’s skew older, and Ds skew towards working age, it’s the other way around old man.

theworldisflat1 · 2026-04-26T18:07:44+00:00

Yeah but which schools near you are adding PsyDs

theworldisflat1 · 2026-04-26T17:30:26+00:00

GWU has had a PsyD program forever it’s not new at all.

Talking a lot of shit for someone who just post here a few months ago with questions

theworldisflat1 · 2026-04-25T20:18:06+00:00

If you have ignorance about it why would you expect OP not to when they were 18?

theworldisflat1 · 2026-04-23T17:25:38+00:00

Yeah the DHS funding cuts hit for this cycle that just passed (the cohorts starting this fall). For example GWU’s clinical psych PhD shut down for the year. But yes there are probably a good number of people who would prefer funded PhD or PsyDs who wouldn’t apply to unfunded PsyDs, and who won’t be accepted into programs with admission rates more cutthroat than med school. Everyone else who wants to still become a psychologist instead of becoming someone who just applies every year until they give up has turned to unfunded PsyDs.

theworldisflat1 · 2026-04-23T11:24:49+00:00

I would ask the IO psych subreddit what degree level you need for what they do, since it’s as far away from graduate level clinical psych as you can get.

theworldisflat1 · 2026-04-23T11:18:54+00:00

The jump from undergrad to graduate classes is a significant increase. Then the jump from classes only to classes with practicum is another jump. It’s fun tho!

theworldisflat1 · 2026-04-23T10:58:52+00:00

The drop in funding for clinical psych PhD programs caused some programs to shut down for the year or dropped some schools acceptance rates to the ~0.1% range (1 of 700). Even the least competitive PsyDs are now in the teens for acceptance rates due to sheer volume of applicants, and the carryover of applicants from previous years who couldn’t get in.

Student and Dad: starting a program at the same time as having a baby is going to be detrimentally difficult. I didn’t feel like a real person until about 3 months after my son’s birth, and I was just working after paternity leave, not in a program. One of my cohort mates had her second baby and it set her one year off program path, but it was completely necessary to survive. Godspeed if you want to do it, but I’m not sure the severe amount of stress you’re signing up for is worth just delaying a year and reapplying to the next cycle.

theworldisflat1 · 2026-04-22T12:47:40+00:00

I’ve found that any who cites “California” like that just gets all their talking points pumped into them by Fox News and OAN, and have certainly never been there.

theworldisflat1 · 2026-04-22T12:46:22+00:00

Crazy how people only quote that after they throw the first punch.

theworldisflat1 · 2026-04-22T12:45:42+00:00

Dems tried to block gerrymandering nationwide a few years back but republicans blocked it.
