    Dr. Atasha
    Is there one (or two) thing(s) that you REALLY wish you did or knew when you were in early 20s that you think could have helped you become a more influential psychiatrist or gave you a less tough time during your residency?

    • @DrAtashaJordan
      @DrAtashaJordan  21 день тому +1

      Interesting question! I guess it depends on your definition of influence. To me: my biggest goals as a psychiatrist are to provide excellent care and to educate the masses about mental health and mental illness. If I am doing those two things, I think I have achieved the influence I seek. I’m glad that I created my own path in my 20s. I didn’t do typical “pre med” activities. Rather, I traveled the world and honed my teaching skills in many different ways. And regarding how to have a less tough time in residency…I think the only way to achieve that is not going to residency… residency by definition is tough. You just have to accept it! And find healthy coping skills and support to get you through it!

      @@DrAtashaJordan Thank you! I meant to ask like would there be anything that would be good for future physicians to be aware of or expect so they can prepare themselves as much as possible before jumping into residency life. 😅 I do think that there is no such way to not suffer when it comes to being a doctor. Also, my definition of influence was providing the "right" type of care and having good insights to life and human minds.
      Thank you a lot for your responses all the time.

    Hi Dr. Atasha, since you're a believer in Christ and a psychiatrist, I'd like to know what your view is on believers who suffer from OCD?

    • @DrAtashaJordan
      @DrAtashaJordan  2 місяці тому

      Thanks for your question! At a high level, if a Christian has OCD, I recommend treatment! The are great medications and psychotherapies that help to resolve symptoms all together. We often suffer more than we need to due to a fear of meds and/or therapy. Hope that helps!
