  1. thanks for sharing! as a vegan and also avoiding the hazardous food that is mentioned on the medical medium website, what do you usually have for breakfast? i find other meals easy to do , but breakfast its hard to just eat fruits and juice. i will get hungry in 10 min. i usually have a big breakfast at 8 and still get hungry around 11am @LfcCharlie4
  2. there are vegan protein powders you can get. i use Vega brand. i make myself a smoothie after a workout. soy/oat milk, frozen fruits, 0.5-1scoop of the protein powder, tastes so good! also chickpeas, cococut yogurt, soy milk, oat milk, tofu, tempeh, those meat alternatives (although these are heavily processed) all have a lot of proteins. edaname beans (i find them better to digest and lighter than other beans).
  3. thanks the past few days have been discouraging. after my 30min stretching session i can reach my toes easily but the next day, before my session, i lose all progress from the day before. does it mean im not stretching enough? i feel like everyday im back at where i was the day before after streching. and before i stretch, i cant touch my toes
  4. did you speak with your partner openly about how it makes you feel? and has he discussed how he feels about how you feel about the situation?
  5. According to the thread about rectal administration of LSD (linked above), they used 1p-LSD

  8. if it doesnt happen naturally, how can we work together to achieve that? could you please offer more practical advices ? is there a book i can read? a video that me and my partner can watch ?
  9. if you moved to a new country to start a new life, better to leave things behind. you mean shes staying back or going with you?
  10. @Leo Gura i am a woman, do you have advice for me? i didnt find any books in your book list regarding sex. i really need to rewire my repressed sexual self but i dont know where to start.

  18. @Elisabeth yeah but psychiatrists have more of a leadership role. we are physicians. we can prescribe medications, we can help people in acute crisis, in psychiatric emergency, severe inpatient management, etc. we have more decision making and power compared to other mental health workers involved in the therapy. psychological issues are dealt in multidisciplinary fashions and psychiatrists are like the conductor in the therapeutic orchestra.
  19. thanks best of luck in your endeavours too. interesting .. thanks ill check it out nope, your neighbor up north . good luck in your match
  20. see those 2 questions i am not able to answer with certainty. i am not clear-visioned and i am in doubt. are you saying i should just bite the bullet and "choose" a vision and stick with it , because there is no right or wrong choices anyway? (in this case, pursue psychiatry VS. just be happy and be the best family doc i can). how to deal with doubts and uncertainty?
  21. i like its fluidity. theres so much creativity involved. in contrast to other branches of medicine, where we rely a lot on evidence based science, algorithm, guidelines. psychiatry is more open to new paradigms. you can carve your own approach with patients and it changes the therapeutic relationship. theres also the possibility to get involved in psychedelic research and help advance that field. theres a great emphasis on human interaction. we spend way more time per patient than any other specialty doctors. we dont have to rush the patients. and i find being able to help people go through psychiatric and psychological difficulties is the most rewarding thing.
  22. thank you for your advice! i basically tried to sit with the failure for the past 2 months, i did contemplation, cried a lot, tried to accept it etc
  23. my dad used to jump jobs a lot too. its probably not ethical but what he did was, lets say you have 2 jobs in similar field, each lasting a few months, he would combine the 2 and add the duration. yes its lieing but you are still competent. it is not a good sign to have very short terms jobs on ur CV. worse case, can you remove some from there ? instead of having 6 short term jobs. put just 1-2 there and say you did souls searching or something else during that time . you are not REQUIRED to put every single job in ur CV. do it in a way that plays in ur favor.
  24. agreed @Leo Gura sorry to change this topic, but leo, could i please have your words of wisdom on the last topic i posted in the career section?
