For any psychologists, psychiatrists or anyone with interests in psychology, what about this statement? "Anyone who is convinced that he/she has a depression, does have a depression."

what had you expected(??) , really I also think the reason based on your question. think/assume please what would you gain even if someone has been convinced that he/she had had a depression (?) what would we gain , what would be motre useful. also it is not good way , I also ask you the reason. I thought that it was illogical. but of course there may existence absence of information. I am not medical doctor.

I only ask the reason that caused you to think so.but probably this question would be highly important in psychology or philosophy( rather than psychiatry). if you meant whether it was harmful or good making her/him convinced he/she had a depression although he/she did not, then OK ,of course this is very bad,it is harmful. and realy good question. I also heard that this would/should be true as theoritical.(but not from academic literatures ,I herad it from professors whose expertise is psych...

Big toenail got grown in and infected, base of the nail came loose. Gave it a hard yank, but the nail was still firmly attached from about halfway up to the distal end. Totally ripped off. I've never seen a toe bleed so much before. One of my worst mistakes ever. I don't think I've ever felt such excruciating pain before.

I love my brain for having given me that wonderful dream last night and the persistent feelings when waking up. At the same time, I've seldomly been as angry at someone as I am at my brain. How dare it wake me up from that dream.

It's not worth starting a thread for this: am I the only one bothered by the notation 120/80 mm Hg? Why not 120/80 mm Hg/mm Hg? Or 120 mm Hg / 80 mm Hg?

If my body font is Times New Roman, 10.5 pt, 1.15 spacing, then what should table/figure caption content size/spacing be like?

I don't want sweet dreams anymore. They constantly remind me of what could be, but isn't.

So basically, the human brain is capable of performing unseen tasks, but our body falls short when the area postrema still makes you vomit while fasting after an acute toxin (read: alcohol) intake? There should be nerves from stomach to area postrema in order to inhibit vomiting while fasting after toxin intake, but hey, who're we to change who we are

Although not very Australian! I always found this amusing actually. Australians pride themselves on their excessive drinking habits but if you look up alcohol consumed per person internationally there is little correlation. We must not be able to hold our liquor, despite our stereotype of being drunks!

For once, I passed all my exams with great distinction, and my thesis specifically with greatest distinction
Let's hope my internships (starting March until July 2020) can help me finish my Master with great distinction ...

Seems like I will be writing on glioblastoma multiforme for my master dissertation the next 2-3 years. Hence, the profile picture.

Passed my exams with quite disappointing results. Ah well. Used to it. I'll do an extra effort for the last exam period in January before my 1.5 years of internships.

Sitting on your train at 6.50 a.m., revising your course of functional neuroanatomy of the basal ganglia, and while thinking about vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) in case of refractory epilepsy (it so happens I read an article on that), formulating a hypothesis on whether stimulation of certain nuclei of the thalamus would be a good treatment (integration of the class on basal ganglia), only to find out the very same day, during the first class of that day (a class on epilepsy), that this treat...

Then I'm very flattered and I apologize for the misunderstanding. I'm dreaming specializing (6 years) in neurosurgery after my 6 years (1 done so far lol) of Medicine, a whole world of potential research and discoveries, of course combined with clinical activities. I couldn't imagine doing something else later

My promotor called the first three chapters of the literature review part of my thesis (totally 10 chapters), which currently counts approx. 40 pages, "Very thorough and accurate!" with only 3 small detailist remarks.
Made my day.

Flipping a coin in case of dilemma's is useless if you want the result to be head.

Got my BSc ^^

Hardest theoretical exam of the whole 6-year medical curriculum tomorrow (which is what every grad student says). Wish me luck.

Accepted for a residency in anaesthesiology!

First day of SSRI. I'm curious.

Hmm ... Might reconsider my lifestyle when it comes to (lack of) sleep and (not) having breakfast ... Had another vasovagal attack (standing) on the train this morning ... I've only had it twice so far: on my first flight ever, in September, and last year on a party. So I know it isn't something too bad, but still, very freightening at that very moment.

I found it rather funny than alarming when I saw the results this morning.

Who once said that self-consciousness is the worst poisoned chalice given to man?
-
Yup, got enrolled in an experimental research project in the Neurosurgery Department, starting after this year's finals
-
Finally graduated magna cum laude as an MD.
Although I have received the wonderful opportunity to specialise in neurosurgery, being a neurosurgery resident is just a dog's life I could not lead for the lengthy duration it has. Because of lots of reasons, I've decided to carry on as an aspiring future anaesthesiologist.

Defended my thesis in front of the examination board. They were very pleased, found both the thesis and the presentation excellent, appreciated my direct and to-the-point answers to their questions ... Couldn't ask for more! 8 February is verdict day ...

We learned how to take an ECG today. In class, the cardiologist interpreted my ECG as coming from a young, healthy, skinny, sporting man. I found it funny too.

Starting to appreciate the wondrous complexity and cleverness of our immune system.
