What color are your eyes?

Ever fucked a patient?

How can I stop my porn/masturbation addiction?

How do you deal with erotic transference?

Are you ever getting over the fact that a psychologist's understanding of the mind will always be way more profound than any psychiatrist's?

Is it normal to suffer from weird fetishes for 2-3 months at a time then completely lose interest?

Some examples (for 2-3 months I EXCLUSIVELY fapped to this and fantasized about this during sex):

>Ephebophilia (13-15 years old)
>Bondage
>Furries
>Loli (drawn only)
>Down-blouse shots
>Large object insertion
>Electric shock
>Anal fingering

Who gives a fuck, he has the drugs.
Hey Op, ever sold drugs?

Why not become a real doctor?

How do I cope with hospital trauma's?
I feel like shit everyday and I dont know what to do about it

How do I get rid of am ocd that forces me to do stuff?

Do you know the psychologist that spends all her time here?

Do you ever feel bad about being a shill for pharmaceutical companies first and someone who actually tries to help people second?

Why can I go into a psychiatrist's office and say I haven't been feeling too great lately and I can walk out 10 minutes later with an antidepressant prescription? Shouldn't you try and get to know your patient's mental state before throwing pills at them? A medical doctor won't start treating you for lupus because you claim to have those symptoms, they'll test first because if you're wrong, the treatment could be harmful. I believe antidepressants are the same - they cause more problems than they cure.

why USA vote TRUMP?

Why aren't you answering any questions?

doesn't she post around this time?

How do i lose this stupid ass scat fetish?

Blue.
No. I am married and have 3 kids.
Well this one patient used to stalk me so i called the cops. He got locked up in a hospital for the mentally ill. I've managed to reason with the rest.
How does that work exactly user? Or you came here just to give me crap because you're a psychologist and not an actual doctor?
Well you're not the only one i've seen so far. I can't say it's all that normal but you shouldn't look into it much as long as it doesn't cause you problems.
2 or 3 times. I needed the money.
I am a real liscended doctor. This is what i've always wanted to do.

you can do sports, running, box...

she had a thread this morning, if that means anything

>liscended

nice english faggot

suck?

what dose this mean?

Why do my Spaghettios make lightning?

What kind of stuff?
What happened exactly?
Yeah and i find her pretty bitchy honestly.
Usually works by traumatizing yourself from it that you don't even dare to think about it. But then again it's all about self control.
While i agree that most psychiatrist do that and when i was younger i thought the same. So i wanted to make a difference. I only prescribe pills if necessary. I try to help the patient as much as i can without them.

I'm russian.

I've been wanting to visit a psychiatrist for a while now, I know I have problems such as depression and social anxiety ( I know people think these aren't real problems, but if it's affecting my daily life, my life choices and overall mental health then I believe I need help ) my question is, will I get antidepressants and other meds right away or does it take a while for the doctor to understand my problems? I've been dealing with this for some years now and I am sure of what I feel, I don't need someone telling me what my problems are, I need help with them. Will visiting a psychiatrist really help me?

How do I know if I am a psychopath or not I literally have no emotions I normally fake them. I used to bully every weaker then me in school for no reason and im only friends with people that I feel like I can control. I only had one girl friend wich I used to cheat on regularly and I never felt close to any one. I also thought empathy was fake and people only pretended they cared to get girls or to say there a better person

have you ever personally broken patient confidentiality? Like if I told you I had raped or even killed several children in the past but have no intention of ever doing it again, would you still try and help me or turn me over to the police?

Not trying to be an edgelord or anything but if i lack impulses,talk to inanimate objects (and they talk back) and i dont really have a problem committing crimes but im.not stupid so i dont get caught but does that make me sociopathic?

If you don't do "something" someone or you'll get hurt. I don't know how to describe it without sounding like a retard.
Things like tapping the light switch more than once, touch things multiple times, pressing the "print" key on my keyboard or even take unnecessary screenshots on my phone or pc.

Well ive been getting these retarded conditions that prevent me from doing the things I love, spent a lot of time in hospitals for treatments that didnt work. + some things happened in the hospital that still bother me

Why does it hurt when I pee?

How do I break the cycle of wasting my time?

I get up, browse the net all day and do fuck all. Wasted too many years of my life like this. I can't even motivate myself to read a book...

Im on day 7 of nicotine cessation. How do i stop the anxiety? I cant fucking breathe

motivate yourself by drinking increasingly large amounts of alcohol. Every day strive to break your previous personal record.

How often do you get disabled patients that are miserable because of their disability?

How do I get disturbing images from Sup Forums outta my head? (I.e gore, underage anine porn, dirty white penis, etc.)

Do I have ADHD? It's hard to focus at something I don't enjoy doing, I usually can focus but quickly lose my foucs.

Grow a pair.

Stop browsing Sup Forums. I'm not even OP, but you're just a moron.

>hard to focus at something I don't enjoy doing

do you really think this is abnormal? Nobody wants to focus on something they don't like.

From the perspective of a Galactic Community, do you think humans have a future as a war faring species?

Because I want to be a space marine but all these other faggots want peace to achieve our goals. I guess they don't realize that the number one innovation throughout all of human history has been war. I say we bring that same enterprising and conquering spirit to the stars rather than being pussies ready for the next Tyrone Reptilian Republic to rape us with their scaly cocks.

We need strong space defenses. And beyond that we need to assert our human dominance.

sorry to burst your bubble, but there is nothing out there to fight. We don't need "space marines". Life is not a video game.

Does it get better?

not like that, my mind just wanders. i'm thinking about it for a second and the next moment i am thinking about something else. anything.

Yeah there is, you're a retard if you think their isn't.

Are you saying that there is nothing or that it is unlikely that we will find something in the near future. They are two very different concepts, and to both I say, we never know when we are going to be invaded. They could be mounting one as we speak.

Not OP, but: only if you put the effort in. If you sit around waiting for things to just "get better", they never will. Take an active role in your happiness.

Around what percentage of patients would you say actually have brain-chemistry imbalance induced depression as opposed to whiny faggots who weren't taught how to deal with their problems?

What is the fundamental flaw of psychiatry?

It is incredibly unlikely t hat a) there are advanced civilizations out there and b) they would want to have war with us, and most importantly c) we ever encounter each other.

I'd be all for building orbital weapons platforms that could in theory be used for planetary defense, but whose primary purpose is using on the enemies we have now, on Earth. If you actually think we'd pour trillions of dollars into building shit for a hypothetical enemy we'll probably never meet, you've been playing too many video games.

What is your opinion on psychologists and psychotherapists?

They are real. But to answer your question it depends on the pscyhiatrist. Some will give you meds after the first session, some after a few or they might not. They aren't obligated to if there is no need. Or you might get send to a psychologist.
The only actual way is to make a brain scan. People believe psychopaths can be identified through honest conversation but i don't.
I will not tell the police. That's what the confidentiality is for. I am allowed to if it's for the sake of preventing harm etc suicide or planning to murder someone. But i choose not to.
I am not a doctor for that.
Can you give me an example about the objects you talk to? Comitting crimes and getting away with it doesn't have to mean you're a sociopath.
You have to force/blackmail yourself or ask someone else to do it for you. Parent or relationship partner example.

You're right. What was I thinking. We still need space fairing warships for human battles though. I could always be a space marine fighting other humans.

Is there a disorder characterized by having no self-preservation instinct? Like "hypothetically" let's say there's an alcoholic who still feels an overwhelming urge to drink and refuses to seek treatment despite developing several illnesses that will probably kill that person fairly quickly without treatment. Is that just plain old addiction or something else on top of it?

More often than you think. It makes me sad really. I can't actually help them. No amount of pills is gonna change their condition.
Keep yourself busy and start doing other things besides being on here.
No. Only you can make it be better.
65% whiny faggots and 35% with actual depression.

I recently lost interest in my girlfriend, I lost interest in sex, It is hard to me to get erections, some months/years ago, if I see a loli thread I got a giant boner (you can imagine with cp). anyway, It is hard to me to get boners with any pic and lost interest in my gf. Also I lost interest in masturbation.

btw, I am 29.

why do i have rape fantasies?
why do I want to die all the time?

How come that I acknowledge every mistake about me and the way I live, yet I don't want to change anything even though that means I will die in the next 5 years probably

What's the difference between psychologists and psychiatrists?

I'm a new hire at a call center and since I joined there have been an increase in high priority events where peoples l lives have been placed in danger. Yesterday, the company took a call that hasn't happened since they started. Three weeks ago an event happened that didn't occur since 2007. And before that another one at 2006.

My coworkers have been mumbling that I'm the cause.

Should I honestly be offended? Because I am upset at this all treating me as if I'm the black plague on their business that was started to help with these things to begin with.

This one I can tell
The payment

they are almost certainly just joking with you. This isn't the 1300s, people don't honestly believe in curses anymore.

Please see

How do I not be attracted to children?

I will never hurt a child, I dont even have any sexual thoughts when I see one like I do a mature woman but when I see them naked I get severely turned on.

What do?

fuck a few and get it out of your system.

then kill yourself.

I'm a normal guy who thinks that a healthy mind is key to success. Even though I don't have any mental problems and not really out of the ordinary, do you think I should seek someone like yourself or isn't isn't worth it?

Have you ever talked with a suicidal?

not OP, but if you can afford it, why not? People go to doctors when they think they're healthy all the time too. It's probably not necessary but it can't hurt.

not a pshycatirst but its because you can literally whack it to whatever you want only a few mouse clicks away, eventually you get bored and need something els to get off
just pray that it dosent bring you down some dark roads user
easiest way to be rid of it is to stop whacking it to internet porn

OP Pl0x, this is getting serious.
can not afford doctors

you need to find some sort of way to get it out of your system without acting it out on some child.

My brother is a shut in neet doing different mmorpg and lot's of cartoon porn. He has no future prospect with the exception of a halfdone university degree which when asked he pretends to finish. The last ten years has been spent doing two courses.

Our parents care little, but feed him and cloth him. They can offer little to no support. He has no respect for me and cannot talk for more than half a day before we start week long arguments. Our sister is clinically depressed and heavily medicated.

His intellect is very high with straight A's until wow hit but with no morale or prospect he isn't using it.

How could I make him see a therapist and get him to realize he is suffering from a depression? How can he get his life back on track?

OP Please, get back and try to answer me:

how to deal with suicidal anons?

summoning OP

OP you failed me. just like any other person in my life

it's hard for me to fap without obsessively fearing that I'm fucking a hairy fat man or a kid, thus slowly killing my boner. What do? I'm not attracted to kids or men

Bumping for OP

I can't controll myself all the time. Sometimes i do really dumb things that cause serious consequences for my "real me". I can't stop this.
Any suggestions?

maybe you should stop doing those things, you know?

I can't.

well, I have some bad/good news for you. you are thinking of it because you subcounsciently have desires for guys

what's wrong with us?

Why is Dualism considered such a joke in mind/body problem?

What is your stance on the use of LSD for psychiatric reasons? Do you think the testing for therapeutic/psychiatric use were cut short too early?

because we are made to be dual persons

Wut?

you hear me

i know your a psych and not a psychologist but...
Why do psychologists get offended if i tell them psychology isnt a science, i dedicated a lot of time and effort for my biomed degree and i find it pretty insulting that they would regard what they studied as science.

OP is a fag and probably not an actual psychiatrist. Here have some questions you should know:

What are the indications for ECT?

What is the distinguishing criterium for schizoaffective disorder and bipolar disorder?

In what way do typical and atypical anti-psychotics differ? Both in terms of pharmacology and clinically observed side-effects.

At what point do anti-psychotics become a viable option for OCD?

What you said doesn't make any sense.

many claims that their studies are science. like women studies and shit. just focus on you and dont be a fag

How do you diagnose someone with bipolar/cyclothymia.
Just wondering cause I gotta get tested for it soon.

maybe I should have stated that i am not OP and just a normal person giving really good advices.

and your questions do not prove that OP is not a psychiastrist, 2 minutes of google search can answer anything

Not OP, but you will be interviewed to determine whether you have experienced episodes of (hypo)mania and major/minor depressive episodes.

One full blown mania episode always implies bipolar disorder type I. At least one major depressive episode and one hypomanic episode implies bipolar disorder type 2. Only hypomanic and minor depressive episodes over a period of 1 year or 2 years (don't remember) implies cyclothymia.

Cyclothymia is a controversial diagnosis however.

Why do people always think that it is that easy? Someone actually trained in the field can distinguish your shitty google answers from actual knowledge within a second.

it is hard to explain here, obviously, the big characterist is the mood changes, but do not we all have them?
If you are wondering it, maybe you do not have it
