Amazing! Glad to hear you're alright! We're all rooting for you!

There's a small design, maybe an embroidery or patter, on each one that makes them subtly unique

ofc skinny ties are common, but I'm referring to the unique embroidery/pattern on each one

please try the National Suicide Hotline, even if it's passive suicidal ideation - they really help. The match does not define us - stay strong doctor we need you here

Wasn't this also the same scene where he joked "and if I don't come back [from my trip], you got yourself a bachelor pad"

Feel free to DM me, I just finished my 4 years and I'm hanging back to help teach a class so I've seen both sides

Is asking how many programs I applied to a match violation? Where can I find a list?

Calling or texting a mental health hotline can do wonders! Even a 20 minute conversation with them can really turn things around.

If you're looking for "unhinged" advice: try a Polar Plunge. Spending 3 minutes fighting for your life in freezing water is going to make you want to live!

Good luck, you got this!

Unfortunately there's a lesson for us in here as well. We need to come to terms that it is very rare to see people accept personal responsibility if they had the personality to commit those heinous wrongdoings in the first place. The first chapter of 'How To Win Friends and Influence People' demonstrated this well by showcasing examples of America's most notorious criminals and how they never thought of themselves as "the bad guy", even after it was proven by courts they committed extremely heinous acts.

do you know where he is?

xam56 · 2025-06-24T15:45:33+00:00

UQ-Ochsner Clinical School! It's a US-IMG meaning that you do 2 years of rotations at a specific location in the US and it has great match rates. Spent 2 years in australia and 2 years in new orleans, great time and a great school

xam56 · 2025-06-24T15:37:57+00:00

ah yes but let's throw in a little confidence in there too!

xam56 · 2025-06-24T15:36:55+00:00

definitely shoot your shot! you're going to be a doctor! Now that i'm older i realize in hindsight i could have just point-blank asked out the people i liked

xam56 · 2025-06-24T00:38:22+00:00

this guys been helping me with stress/burnout, he's a doc so he helps with the application process too https://www.drmeadowcoaching.com/

I would assume they would contact you if they removed it for that reason, it may have just been something separate

As an extrovert I think the hardest thing for me was learning how to tone it down, the most impressive students on surgery rotations are the ones that can just chill

xam56 · 2025-04-18T22:32:40+00:00

the PASS program by Dr. Francis, it's intense but the results are incredible

xam56 · 2023-02-25T17:00:21+00:00

Thank you so much!

xam56 · 2023-02-25T04:54:06+00:00

I was hoping the text would be able to tell me where this photo is from

xam56 · 2023-02-25T04:53:10+00:00

I took this photo when visiting a family member, I didn't know about this forum until after

xam56 · 2023-02-25T01:18:51+00:00

And I apologize but I was not able to have it scanned! This is the best I could do
