Check out my reaction to Bojack Horseman: • DOCTOR REACTS TO BOJAC...
It's a Sin reviews: • DOCTOR REACTS TO IT'S ...
I'm not on TikTok and to be perfectly honest, I still don't really get it. That being said, there's loads of medical and mental health videos with varying degrees of accuracy. I'm checking out a varied bunch of tiktoks to see how much of it is true, and how much is nonsense.
If there's any that you find that you want me to have a look then leave links in the comments or DM me on instagram. Some of these are absolutely brilliant!

"The brain is the best organ in the body!" - according to the brain.
The brain named itself 🤔
Well the stomach's not arguing any, it just keeps sitting there digesting.
The skin has the best case for an argument, honestly. It keeps everything inside.
"I like Dr. Mike, not just because he's fit because he's really, really accurate...and really, really fit" :)
Tea
@@DoctorElliottCarthy No tea to spill, just finishing your thought or what I thought was your thought :)
@@DoctorElliottCarthy made my evening
@@DoctorElliottCarthy what you said hits different after your comming out vid
Dr Mike is going on tour here in the US everyone. Book your tickets asap. CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS 😁
Me (a pharmacist): "He's going to say that what the tablet looks like and how drugs are spelled is the pharmacist's problem."
Dr Carthy: "That's what we have pharmacists for."
I laughed so very hard. Just excellent!
I love pharmacists so much. You lot have bailed me out of many sticky situations (and many stupid mistakes)
Literally just thinking that! I work at a pharmacy and I was trying to think what it could be but there's SO MANY medications that all look so similar to one another, especially with how many manufacturers and generics there are.
Side note, azithromycin 500mg is often prescribed for certain STIs. Normally you see it prescribed as taking 1000mg once for one dose.
@@roselover411you get the grand slam with the 1G valtrex?
"Never be afraid to do your own research"
Me, someone with health anxiety: Way ahead of you.
:P just a little light hearted joke, for most people that's absolutely true.
Honey, I am not a medical student but I'll be reading those case studies etc. I RESEARCH. Because frankly, my doctor doesn't listen to me unless I'm practically doing an essay and presentation for her and then I'll suggest it's one of three possibilities and she'll either deny them all or pick one. Someone has to look into this and apparently that's me.
How does anyone diagnose themselves with ADHD with WebMD? It invariably says you have cancer every time.
One of the more worrying side of Instagram and TikTok are teens convincing each other that they have mental health conditions and how to present needing increasing interventions as if it’s a competition. I’m glad that recent whistleblower came forward, hopefully social media will actually do some proper safeguarding
Also this was a huge "trend" on Tumblr as well. Showing mental illness (depression, anxiety, suicide) in a "romantized" way. It was very disturbing.
I always enjoy how you describe ADHD stuff. I wish I could give you more than one thumbs up
Was recently watching the new season of Lucifer and I hadn't thought about tom Ellis in a while and I couldn't figure out who he remained me of when he smiled... I think just figured it out haha👍🏾
I will most certainly take that!!!
you should totally react to code black !! It's sadly discontinued , but it's the most medically accurate show EVER
I’d love a look at another episode of euphoria!
The thumb in hand thing always works to suppress my gag refex a lot, and I don't know how. I gag really easily but I do it a lot less when I squeeze my thumb in my hand... It's a mystery
Placebo effect
@@joehemmann1156 Maybe, it would make sense. I've seen Dr Mike talk about how it actually works for a lot of people but I don't remember what he said about HOW it works. Maybe he said it was just the placebo effect
Probably helps that you concentrate on your thumb and not on swallowing the pill.
@@joehemmann1156 But hey, the placebo effect is a real mechanism in the brain so whatever works.
As an Australian, I would say that accent was actually very decent✨💚✨ ( not perfect, but so much better than others I've heard 😂)
I tired to steer away from Crocodile Dundee stereotypes 😂
yes!!!! please do ER, i'm obsessed (definitely before my time but have been watching on c4 over the last few years)
I love watching you, Dr Hope from the UK, and as you mentioned also Dr Mike. Great edutainment every video
I used to watch Dr Mike but I feel like his content started drifting from educational entertainment to more personality focused content with a backdrop of medical science. I much prefer the style of content that you make, and that Dr Hope makes.
I'm just really glad you like the channel 🙂
Yes! I love Dr. Hope's content.
I work in a pharmacy and I would never be able to guess what white pill you took over the phone.
this comment was from like two years ago but i thought the same thing. theres like a billion meds that are white
As a 17 year old who actively uses tiktok i’m so confused i have never seen any of these tiktoks, my fyp is just a dude sticking his hand in orange nacho cheese 😭😂
Brain wins over every other organ by virtue of naming itself. So there!
Hey, love you and your videos! I'm here to ask you again to react to Community, season 3 episode 19 Curriculum Unavailable or the season 2 Christmas episode in which they get therapy.
Me to the urologist: The support group says I'm more at risk for UTIs because of the cystine being flushed out being crystalline in structure
Urologist: That's completely not true and I'm not going to tell you how to deal with or prevent the UTIs because that's not my area
No one understands tik tok it’s okay
Glad it's not just me 🤣
Stop it, you lived in Australia?! I’m so upset that you aren’t here anymore. Did you ever go to Newcastle or the vineyards in the hunter valley?
I was in QLD. I had an aussie twang apparently when I came back to the UK but that's long gone now
@@DoctorElliottCarthy I love QLD, I want to move there. To be honest, the accent you put on was better than most actors getting paid for it and miserably failing
how am I supposed to take my mind out of the gutter when it was your reaction to the choke reflex suppression tip that led me there in the first place…😂😂😂
I used to be a fan of Dr. Mike. Then he was reckless with covid and downplayed an expose about racism and sexism in the medical field. So disappointing.
I also don't really care for how he's looked at autism in the past. I don't want to speak to a specific because I could be wrong but I seem to recall him being an advocate of ABA therapy and supporting autism speaks. I appreciate his knowledge as a physician and putting some good information out there but as an autistic person I really can't accept that
@@WatashiMachineFullCycle Totally! It's unfortunate how often medical professionals perpetuate misinformation and harmful treatments. It's totally antithetical to everything doctors are taught during their education.
He reacted pretty negatively when accused of fatphobia as well instead of researching what fatphobia is or trying to understand where the person was coming from
@@GrapheneTransistors That's exactly what I was referring to when I said he was reckless during covid. It was such a shame to see what a hypocrite he was.
@@Harri_James Unfortunately, fatphobia is so common among medical professionals. There really needs to be more education around health and size and how big does not necessarily mean unhealthy.
Please do more bo Jack or historical videos! ✨❤️
Okay but that last TikTok KILLED ME LOL
I know right! The brain is def the best organ but the lungs on that vid had me in stitches
The last tiktok video is so funny! Poor appendix 😂
Dr. Mike attended a yacht covid infested bday party during quarantine in Florida 😑 sooo, maybe cool it a little with his admiration.
Totally agree, Dr Mike is fit! He is really good for medical info too tho. Bee whoop!
Wait, did you just throw shade at DBT? Please elaborate!
(For context, I have been in DBT groups in eating disorder treatment, but it never really clicked for me. Very curious to hear your perspective on it!)
Me? Shade? I wouldn't dare..... honestly I'm being flippant. DBT can be really helpful for lots of people. I'm more despairing at the all too common advice given out to "do some yoga" or "have a bath" for people in crisis
@@DoctorElliottCarthyHaha, fair enough! I think that actually sums up my problems with it fairly well actually, it always felt like a bandaid instead of trying to find what the actual issue is. But I guess sometimes in a crisis people do need bandaids :) Thanks for replying!
3:31 "I mean this isn't even that bad! I only have diarrhea, RABIES, ..."
Um...it actually -is- could be (depending on if he's already started to have symptoms) quite bad!
I'm pretty sure I have ADHD (I'm 23) but it's proving really difficult to get a diagnosis on the NHS and I don't know what to do. Do you have any advice?
My GP did a quick assessment and agreed it was likely I have it so she referred me. Then I was asked to fill out the Weiss Functional Impairment Rating Scale Self-Report, which came with a guide on how to scored it. I filled it in and then checked my scores and I had some degree of impairment in 5 of the 7 areas. I sent back the paperwork and waited a couple of weeks before asking my GP receptionist about the status of my referral and she told me it had been rejected because I didn't experience any symptoms before age 13. I find this really confusing because no one had asked me anything about my childhood. if I had been asked I would have mentioned various childhood symptoms. Is this a thing you're heard of happening?
Ideally a questionnaire should also be given to a parent to try and corroborate whether issues were present from before 12 years old. That's a diagnostic criteria but most people can't remember what life was like as a kid.
@@DoctorElliottCarthy OK thanks. I'll ask my GP for an assessment for my parents to fill out and see if I can get another referral
@@DoctorElliottCarthy Wait, what? Most people don't remember what life was like as a kid? Is this true? I thought most people just had trouble with remembering stuff from before 6. You're saying it can be even more than that? I was feeling like a weirdo before for remembering stuff from before I was 2, now I really feel like a freak. What causes this? Like, on both sides of that, remembering and forgetting.
The TV show ER was before my time (I was born when it was still airing), but I love it! It was Dr. Benton who did the punch thing.
I know this is an older video but I love ER 😂 I’m a teenager but my mom and I recently found it on Hulu (she said her stepdad who’s a doctor used to love watching ER and said it was pretty accurate) I yelled in my head “Benton!” When you couldn’t remember who did the little “arm pump” thing lol
Don't worry, that is definitely not what Australian private psychiatry is like haha. AHPRA (our medical board) are VERY big on professional boundaries. I don't even have a way of directly contacting my Doctor - I'd just get reception who would then tell me to pop into the local chemist.
I'm just happy you didn't read me for my terrible aussie accent 😂
When i told my doctor i did research she kindof scoffed and said google isn't reliable and they get up to date information. I retorted that my research was on the prescriptions website then their pdf 😂
I'm russian and my gastroenterologist actually knows how my pills looked, I remember him literally going through each pill and how it looked when I forgot to buy one type of them
Dr Elliott, I am developing a crush on you. Is it transference?
Big one for mental health watch it again film set in 1960 but what about girl interrupted amazing film all make me cry
Oh look, someone from love island recommending supplements.
I dont understand why dr mike gets so much hate. doctors are humans too. they have differing opinions, experiences, and understanding. ive never had a problem with him
Him partying on a yacht with no masks and no social distancing in Florida during the pandemic and then uploading an apology to a side channel where less people would see it and also lying in that video is pretty terrible in my opinion
@@Harri_James 100 percent agree. However his vids are informative, and accurate. He helps people to live more healthy life .
@@Harri_James Yes! I haven't been able to watch one of his videos since his non apology video on his obscure channel I didn't even know existed.
It’s not like that in Australia … and terrible accent.
4:04 🤣 Ok, let me just say as someone who also probably has it, *this* is the most accurate thing! Brushing hair and teeth simultaneously, water still running but you should have been on your way five minutes ago? That! That is it! And it's shown for only a second too!
The way my doctor and i describe vitamin d supplementstion in the winter is that ive tested low in the past (and my insurance doesnt like to pay for it) so its worth it to take a supplement in the winter
Could you make a reaction video to the movie girl interrupted? I love your videos!
Out of curiosity, how would medically diagnosis chocking other people in your sleep? Is it just violent sleep walking or more trauma related? My sibling has an issue with that.
Oooh could you react to some episodes of Holby City? They have some excellent ones they did regarding staff mental health and burnout. The episodes with the character Dr Jac Nalor particularly was incredible the way they showed her was very spot-on in terms of how someone can unravel if they aren't taking care of themselves or addressing issues and just going on 'work work work' mode.
SEASON 21 EPISODE 46 episode is called Sandra's Choice' gives some context and the end of S21 Ep 49 shows Jac's burnout and paranoia in the hospital getting worse. Its very well done, particularly in terms of her colleagues trying to get her to see occupational health and her ignoring them.
YASSS He even did the Erik La Salle punch in the theme song!!!!
I think i might be older than you are dr Elliott. :P
Sadly, Erik doesn't act much any more...but he has become a damn fine director! IIRC he's directed a few episodes of Noah Wylie's new show...
You were doing an Australian accent?
Wait…wait…wait…I might have adhd? Wtf…
So is laughing in your sleep the same?
Hello. Someone who struggles to swallow pills here. Can say that hand trick didn't work, and left my hypermobility syndrome in my hand screaming so THIS HURTS TO TYPE LMAO Maybe it has a placebo effect on some people? My struggle happens if I think about swallowing food/pills (even fluids) too much, so maybe it's such a distraction for some people that that's why it works?
British DBT groups must me severely different than Aussie ones. We don't talk about scalfs, we just ask when smoko is
Omg! Yas, watch ER!! One of my favorite (accurate) medical shows!
And the one who did the punching in the opening is Peter Benson.
I've had a psychiatrist zone out on me then yawn.
I flipped out and left without saying anything, my thought process (as I remember it) was along the lines of...
"Well obviously I'm not important enough to pay attention too, I shouldn't have bothered, No one is ever going to care, I should have just stayed home, how did they get hired, that's such bullshit, I would make a better doctor then they are, I should be a psychiatrist, as if, I can't even help myself, how the fuck could I help anyone else, I'll never be good at anything, I'm fucking stupid and useless, I should kill myself, I forgot to wash the dishes, I'll wash the dishes THEN kill myself, the laundry needs cleaning too, UA-cam notification, who posted, I don't want to know, I want to know, did I eat today, what was I doing, not important any more I have to start my mindfulness meditation, there are clothes on the floor, I need to clean up first, it's dinner time, I can't eat that, I can eat that, don't ask me how it went, leave me alone, I love my family, what was the notification, I'm still hungry, the bed is made and I showered but I'm still alert, I should do something, I can't do this, nothing is good, everything is wrong, I hate myself, I should call the psychiatrist back, they were an asshole, I'm tired now, I didn't do anything after I got home... did I? ... lazy shit.
Oh the sleep talking! Last night I accidentally woke my brother by yelling "SALUTE!"
I know you hate question of "what's the worst case you ever worked on?", but I have a genuine question... What is the most fascinating case you've ever seen? One that just showed how beautifully intricate and incomprehensible the human mind can be. I am a thrid year Psyc student, I hope to treat patients one day, these videos really help!!!
Dear Doctor Elliot Carthy,
What can I do about chronic anxiety dreams/nightmares? They are not nightmares per say in the sense that I'm scared or am really upset, but I keep having anxiety attack dreams where I'm back in school and failing, I'm naked and desperately trying to cover up and find my clothes and everything is going wrong etc.
It's getting really disruptive because it'll case me to toss and turn so much in my sleep that all the sheets get completely tangled around me, I'll wake up completely drenched in sweat and my whole body will be so clenched through the night that I'm sore and exhausted when I wake up. I've wondered a few times if I've had a seizure in my sleep I'll be so sore and exhausted. It'll also make it 20x harder to wake up and I'll often oversleep.
It's exhausting and really frustrating because even though I have diagnosed generalized anxiety, my life currently has very little stress or drama.
I'm told the few times I'm with family and we're staying/sharing together in a hotel that I sleep talk and none of my friends or siblings can share a bed with me on trips or sleepovers because I toss and turn so much. If I manage to get myself a husband someday I'm convinced we'll need to put two king sized mattresses together so that we can have space when sleeping because there's no way he'll sleep through being steamrolled
Oh I miss Australia, I was there for a month for a student ambassador program when I was 15. It is heavy for a gay teenager...so many gorgeous men on Bondi beach, so little time 😂. An Australian or British accent gets me so excited and puts me in a trance, like when a dog is fixated on a treat and starts drooling. That was me in Australia 😂
Got diagnosed with ADHD last year at 25. Honestly should have been diagnosed like, 15+ years ago. It’s pretty obvious
I have every series of ER on DVD 😁
More of these please
I love ER, watched every season with my mom growing up. It's the most accurate medical show. My mom refuses to watch most medical shows for how inaccurate they are
Not sure if this is a video on its own, but I’d love if the subject of sleep paralysis could be mentioned sometime in terms of parasomnia-adjacent experiences. People who don’t experience it often trivialize it via jokes, but it’s actually super disruptive and can set people on edge for upwards of 30 minutes in the worst cases, along with potentially messing with sleep schedules at a fundamental level.
We're lucky to have psychiatrists in country Australia - private OR public :(
'Not just because he's fit...' Fucking love this dude
that gag reflex thing really works well as a placebo if you do it quickly and dont think too much about it
My doc was not in the best mood when I pronounced them vitamins like you do. She gave me a death stare and said do you mean vItamins 🤣.
Ok i think we have a candidate here for the worlds most perfect man.....
How does Seasonal Affective Disorder work?
Can we get a link to the organs arguing tiktok please? 🤣
Anyone know the account that made the last TikTok? I love it and want to follow
I enjoyed the first tiktok video you did so I’m happy you did another
Don't hit on Dr Mike................thats my job.
You should react to Everybody's talking about Jamie!
Great idea. I've seen the west end show but not the film yet
swooning over Dr Mike. so cute
İt's the hand gesture for me 🤙
Please watch Casualty!!
Blimey I haven't watched casualty in years!!! I could def do one. Are there any psychiatry or mental health storylines you can recommend?
@@DoctorElliottCarthy There's Ethan's PTSD storyline which the main episodes are series 34 episode 1, 2, and 13. There's also David's bipolar storyline and Dylan's OCD storyline but I can't think which are the main episodes of those off the top of my head.
Pleasey please please may you do a reaction to S6E1 of House?
It's coming soon 😉
@@DoctorElliottCarthy oh my gosh yes!!! That’s my favourite episode 😁😁😁 the first scene with Radiohead is pretty iconic!
There’s the episode of ER where a patient stabs 2 of the doctors because of an undiagnosed mental illness
💖
And I just got told to try DBT.... coooooooool
I was being flippant on the vid. DBT can be really helpful for lots of people so of it's been suggested, give it a shot 🙂
@@DoctorElliottCarthy haha I know mate it's all good.
Still campaigning for a catatonia video btw
I like
