Exercise of the day: How did you spread kindness this week?
Comment down below! :)
Uuh I told my little brother I was proud of him for finishing school today, and I put a plastic bag I found on the lawn in the Recycling:)
I gave this video a like :)
@@ac-pe1ob that's really kind though
@@nbbk3851 Yeah I am too kind
Kept my little brother accountable with schoolwork by studying over the phone
Rachel, don’t feel like you need to entertain us with content! We watch you because we love seeing you live YOUR life as a med student. The coffee ASMR, the studying time lapse, the food, friends, the Starbucks runs, everything! Just know we appreciate every vlog you post, they’re never boring to us like you think they are girl. Props to you for doing the Tube while going through second year. You’re a rockstar!
Thank you for saying this !
I agree 100% with this. ❤️
LITERALLY
Truth.
During my first encounter, I advised the patient not to eat fast foods... We ended up meeting each other at KFC that afternoon..
Emotionally unstable??? Wow, I can’t believe some people!! How about human? I think that’s the more accurate description! Very smart, kind, beautiful human!! ♥️
I agree. I found it really odd that people comment this. I know no one or specifically a student that able to get through their program like a robot. Education is supposed to make you feel challenged. Apparently the people comment this are able to go through difficult or challenging situation without emotion. I would be terrified to meet a Dr. with no emotions. No thank you, I would walk out the room asap.
People are so rude on the internet its crazy
@@AidaTriche that is true...
I don't know why people feel the need to be so negative when someone like you is willing to truthfully share your life, not pretending that everything is okay all the time. I appreciate this channel so much and look up to you as I am pursing a career as a physician and your resilience gives me hope. Thank you!
Agreed! I don’t understand people 🙄
Billy Gaddis Silver 😋😋😋😋😛😛😛😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😜😝😛😛😋😋
congrats to you too!
you have no ideaaaaaa how much shes pushes me to keep going and i love her for that wow. its easy to feel like ur the only one sometimes
Isaac Suarez I don’t think it’s necessarily doctor’s individual fault, I think in the US it’s mostly due to privatized healthcare and laws that allow drugs to be MARKETED on TV ( which is honestly utter madness to me, being from a European country with universal healthcare). It’s literally legal in the US to advertise a drug, which ethically should only be given to a patient as a result of a diagnosis. Yet patients in the US get influenced by advertising and will ASK for a drug, when they probably shouldn’t be on it at all. As for statins and ezetimibe (cholesterol lowering drugs) doctors prescribe them because they immediately reduce the risk of a heart attack and death for the patient, but it’s crazy how many patients (and some doctors) think it’s a cure and don’t try to change their diet and lifestyle.
I called my friends and checked on them after a rough week.
The fact that ur making a vlog during a midterm period is mind-boggling...this is the type of real content that i want to see, EMOTIONS AND ALL, BECAUSE THATS HOW MEDICAL SCHOOL IS. Some people need to understand that it's not all sunshine and rainbows; the process is dreadful but the result is all that matters. No offense but your tears are real and real is all that matters.
😭😭💕
"this girl is emotionally unstable"??? This girl is in med school and working so hard to help other people! Keep doing what you're doing, girlie
Called my grandmother who lives alone to make sure she didn't need anything and sent her some flowers!
Thanks for that ending Rachel! There's already so much hate in the world, the least we could literally do is to be kind to one another. It literally takes nothing from you but could mean the entire world to someone else. I appreciate that.
Also the fact that it's October rn is crazy. I feel like it was just August 2 weeks ago 😭
I don’t agree that being kind takes nothing from you. Being neutral takes nothing from you. But kindness is an action and does take effort. Sometimes you just don’t have it in you to go out of your way to be kind. It’s ok to be neutral. But there’s never an excuse for being mean/hateful.
let's all just take a moment to appreciate that rachel literally is an amazing person, works her butt off in medical school, and still edits and uploads youtube videos for us. i dont know how you do it.
😭ty. Idk how I do it either
I just want to say I admire the way you handled seeing a negative comment about yourself. You turned it into giving us advice to not throw judgement becuase you do not know what other people are going through. And instead of returning the negative energy, you turned it into positive energy. Makes me love you that much more. Good luck on your midterm
Just wanted to say that I never find your videos boring. You are always authentic and true to yourself and BELIEVE ME that is so refreshing. Also speaking as someone who is in there first year of medical school, I find that looking at your reaction to things (stress, patient encounters, midterms) helps me to feel a little more relaxed since now I know there are other people out there like you that are going through the same rollercoaster of emotions I'm going through. Please keep going, AND good luck on your midterm!
I felt super included in that group hug😂😂😂
I am sorry that some people post that on your videos, it is uncalled for and not necessary. Your videos are amazing and normalize the feelings and ups and downs of medical school so I hope that those negative comments do not deter you from continuing on and being a realistic and authentic medical student UA-camr. Your emotions and caring soul will make you a PHENOMENAL doctor and those people writing negative comments should be very thankful!!
I watch you and I'm from Australia - it was so fun to watch you open your Aussie package!! :-)
I’m about to take my first big exam for mortuary school, watching this to calm down a bit! Good luck to anyone with tests coming up, we got this!
Rachel, please don't apologise for the video!! I enjoyed watching and seeing your life as it actually is - needing a break, stressing about midterms, and all. It's comforting to know that the people we look up to go through these as well 💕. I hope your midterms went/are going well, I have mine next week!
Although I have not endured medical school, I highly doubt that whom ever commented knows the stresses you go through. You are so smart, kind and have such a genuine soul! Keep up the great work! You are inspiring many!
the one time I laid down for a lecture, my gen chem 2 class, I fell asleep within 5 minutes. So moral of the story, don't lay down unless you want to backtrack later because you fell asleep! (for that reason I haven't laid down during lecture/ studying lecture ever since)
Couldn't agree more with you we need to be kind to each other. We don't know what someone is going through I love that you mentioned that it crucial that we learn this and practices this on a daily. Loved the vlog keep up the great work!
I actually enjoy all your videos. It's refreshing. It's genuine. It's real life. As for the biting of nails and skin, yes...I do that also. It's a bad habit I can't seem to quit. You're not alone!!😁
I’m not even in med school yet and I feel you. I work a full time job + I’m doing school full time right now and it’s a lot honestly I have my moments when I cry too because it’s A LOT but some people don’t experience that so they wouldn’t get it, that doesn’t make me emotionally unstable.
I have a 4-hour lab at the exact premiere time of this video. I sense a sudden stomach upset at 1:01 pm will hold me to the confines of the bathroom for at least 12-16 minutes.
Relatable lol
I completely agree with you on be kind always! I genuinely feel that these negative comments come from a place of ignorance of potentially not completing higher education as they can be extremely hard especially in the sciences as you are expected to be on superhero level. I did a degree in Neuroscience and i can honestly say i cried minimum once a week! Stay strong you’re doing awesome despite everything going on in the world you’re continuing your med school path and killing it even while living away from home and trying to have a small sense of normalcy!!
I had my first med school interview today - a recorded one instead of live. It was so awkward! I can't imagine how telemedicine would feel.
Hi Rachel!! I'm in nursing school, and I wanted to say I'm really encouraged by your vlogs. :) keep killing the game!! You are going to be an amazing doctor!
As an Aussie, I'm so excited to see you look at so many staples of our snack culture!! You trying a TimTam is just life. Dip the TimTam in coffee or warm milk -- it's the bomb! Then look up how to make a TimTam a straw. You're welcome ;)
Studying for my MCAT lately! And your videos have helped push me along and keep my motivated to do my best ❤️
i just found your youtube channel and you're lovely! already adore your vlogs
tip for nail picking: at night put vaseline on your fingers before you go to bed. When you wake up they will be so much better. Trust me this works, I pick my nails when I'm stressed and do this every night. Might want to put a lot of it on if you want really good results
Hi Rachel! Just wanted to say I love your channel and look up to you thank you for being so real! I was hoping you would do a video or vlog and talk about how you overcome the feeling of disappointment or shame when you don't perform as well as you think you could have. I would also love to hear about how you deal with the competitive nature of medical school. Love you stay strong!
Hey just wanted to say that I love the zoom study with me videos. Please do another one really soon!!! I need to study!😂
I honestly haven’t studied anything since😂
I hope she makes one
Hey, I wanna join.
What should I do ?
@@ashikanvar7863 She'll post an announcement on UA-cam if there's one
Girl I'm a 5th year Medstudent and emotionaly unstable just like you. It's okay 💙💙💙
SO BEAUTIFUL AND PRETTY!!!!
Hey there! I’ve always watched your videos for inspiration but I totally need some advice. I’ve been heavily contemplating becoming a physician assistant instead of an MD and wanted to know if you always knew that you wanted to be a doctor or if you considered a PA or NP path?
Don’t listen to those hateful comments. Everyone in medicine goes through times when theres emotion which is normal being we are humans. The mean commenters have probably never been around the healthcare setting. You do you sis 👏🏾.
Girl I was struggling all day with this new pharmacology block but everytime I was feeling anxious about it you kept coming into my mind and I repeated what would Rachel Southard do? Work (Sout)hard!, thanks for being such a great inspiration even on the hardest days, I am soo glad I found your channel this summer, I am sure I am gonna rock this school year with you by my side :)
PS: please drop merch soon!
We understand and I love you 😍 and I want to tell you that I got in medical school 🏫 recently and I am so happy and thankful...........can you do a video to first year medical students 🙏🏻
Emotionally unstable? No, medical school (and school in general) is stressful. It's normal to be stressed and cry and get emotional. It helps you better empathize with others and be a better physician to your (future) patients :)
Metabolic acidosis and metabolic alkalosis.... I can't wait to use these terms❤.
Great vlog Rachel ❤
I’m loving your dark hair!!
Just finished my midterm and celebrating by watching this video! As always, love your weekly videos and your authenticity
I donated food to a nonprofit organization that supplies food for college students who are unable to afford meals.
Did some of my friends math h.w lol 🤣idk if that counts as kindness
I love Rachel, she really encompasses my first year medical student vibes, also I feel bad for Rachel I hope there’s more girls in that house, I can’t imagine a girl away from her family living in a house full of men
Love your vids so much, they motivate me and make me happy
Thank you for all the videos you make, it is not obvious that you give us your free time, you do not have to apologize for anything, we love you as you are, and love everything you do, I appreciate you very much❤️
Good luck on your midterm Rachel!
Preach girl 🙌🙌
I hate it when people assume someone's weak or unstable just because they cry when they feel like it! It literally just means you're capable of processing BASIC EMOTIONS, plus your chances of breaking under pressure or freaking out during an important or stressful event is so much smaller than someone who doesn't express or accept their own feelings. to think that because you're going to be a doctor you can't FEEL things is what actually makes a BAD doctor. how can you help someone and deal with what a doctor has to deal with, if you're can't even deal with yourself?
I started psychological help for myself today and I felt great, sometimes you need a little kindness not only for others but for yourself :)
Its so sad that you are asking people to be nice. :( that should be something people do in their daily. 💔
Omg when you said in your video that it was 12:49 it was 12:49 where I am too a month later in a whole different place😂
thank you for this video 🙌🏽
I know I'm late, but I just wanted to say that whenever I truly don't feel motivated to study and do good in schoolI watch your videos. I want to be a veterinarian but, I absolutely love watching your content and it makes me feel so much better. Thank you for sharing with us
Just subscribed. Saw you on Alex Terranova’s recent video on loneliness. I’m so sorry you are going through so much hell. But you don’t have to go though it alone. I guess it’s why sometimes everyone goes through their own types of struggles. Maybe by relating, we understand that we all go through the same things sometimes. Just know that whatever the project is is that we will be excited no matter what. Anyway, stay safe out there especially at your job.
Thank you Claire
As an IMG(India) student how can I prepare for Step2 USMLE and have a overall great score?Since I will be giving it after 2022,its importance will be much higher.
Wait WTH UA-cam!! Send me notifications 😭 i missed the zoom study shesh :”)
You inspired my videos😍😍
not entertaining!?!?! lol this is what we signed up for
I literally have my patient encounter exam this week lol good timing
Hey 👋 Rachel I wanted to tell you that I got into medical school recently can you do a video for first year medical student?
My midblock is next Saturday and I’m freaking out already
Thank you for sharing a part of your life with us♥️ I usually don't comment on UA-cam, but I 100% agree with you on what you said at the end. Your words are so motivating! Good luck on your exams!! :)
Great video good job!!
Hey Rachel, what’s your zodiac sign?
This week I helped to TA a forensic anthropology field school. It gets very stressful for students. So, I did my best to teach them to take a beat, a breath, a little walk if they had before they let frustration get away with them. I also worked very hard to take my own advice, and to also stop and remind myself how both pumped and terrified I was when I went through this training.
just had my first med school interview today :-) love your videos, rachel!
Its 2020 everyone is a bit unstable and that's a sorta ok all things considered. I cried a lot in college and med school is rougher than college.
agreed!
I feel more than ever the pressure as med students / doctors to be emotionally stable 24/7 is so so high. We feel like we're doing something wrong if we're stressed or upset or have a breakdown and scared to share it. You make it feel so much more okay for us to express our emotions more freely. And as you always say - just because you have an off moment doesn't mean that you're incapable or unqualified. Thank you so much Rachel, keep doing what you're doing :)
I really appreciate how open and honest you are all the time. You show your raw emotions and put out some of your most vulnerable moments on the internet for everyone to see, and that is so courageous of you. I can't even fathom juggling medical school, a successful UA-cam channel, and whatever else you are battling behind closed doors. Also, it is so important to cry and let your feelings out. That is not emotional instability at all in my opinion. That would be facing your problems upfront and emotionally stabilizing yourself so that you can move on. Thanks Rachel for all your hard work and efforts! I love your vids so much and I hope those negative comments don't get to you.
Thank you Alyssa 😭
All the best ❤️ for the mid term...
To you this may be boring content but I love seeing how navigate through the day and study! Keep it coming ❤️
thank you
OMG thank goodness you uploaded today. I need your positivity as I had a math test today and I don't think I did too hot on it.
Watching ur videos makes me less worrie about starting medical school next year. 🥰❤❤
When is the merch coming out ! Love you so much Rachel ! 🥰 wishing you a productive week !
I'm also a 2nd year med student and I completely understand you. I am a professional procrastinator, pessimist, emotionally unstable and I admire you for handling both med school and youtube so well. Not everyone will understand you so you don't have to apologize at all. You're doing the best you can and you're great. Love you !!
Love watching your video ❤️.Love from Malaysia
This motivates me to keep studying when i get tired
U R AWESOME! We luv everything u do and keep up the good work. Can't for the day we can professionally call u Dr. Southherd!
I wonder what types of people are leaving those rude comments.. like is it a gender thing or something?
I am the exact same way as you Rachel. I cry sometimes and get stressed and put pressure on myself. Letting those feelings out is literally a normal part of being human, and especially so if you’re in medical school! I just genuinely don’t understand where they’re coming from. Just know there are way more positive comments that outweigh the bad, and the majority of us APPRECIATE you showing the bad times and the times when you cry. THAT’S LIFE! You are such a smart, caring, and empathetic person, and there’s no doubt in my mind you will make a wonderful doctor!
Rachel, I enjoy hearing about the work you do. The vlog was not boring. Thank you for making it actually.
The Tim Tams! Hahaha love it - my PBL made me do a Tim Tam slam the first week of school! You'll have too come visit - there are so many different flavours
Girl if I didn't work night shifts you KNOW I would be at your zoom sessions :'(
Love to see Rachel challenging mental health stigma/ignorance so gracefully and beautifully!
I can't find the Amazon link of your chair... I need one🙈 can you give me the link? Thanks
Ok. For the first time on UA-cam, my notifications are on! Yay study session :) Coolio RS
All the best for your exams. Study well and don't stressed... Love you for who you are.💜
Good luck on your midterm I do have 3 too, Can I know please who I can join zoom meeting for the study group . Thank you
i feel you on the finger nail/skin picking...Dr. Reid on Criminal Minds diagnosed me with impulsive control disorder lol we love to see it
OMG you just made me feel 10x more normal for biting at my nails/skin LOL
I enjoyed the video!Thank you for the good video.🥰
Youre an inspiration ☺️💞 just doing daily life
We don’t care about the content! We just care about you! You inspire us all day long and we want the best for you!
I spread kindness by being kind to myself.!❤ Really needed that. coz self love and care is important during this situation.
Can you link your chair please? It looks so comfy!!
Hey Rachel, I wanted to ask you that what resources do u use during your second year of med school also what textbooks do u use.
Hey Rachel, all the best for your mid term, you are great, love you and your videos ❤
Ahhh so excited for this one!!
