went from being a psych major to social work. as a psych major I would get asked questions like this all the time. as a social work major, people just say “oh so you wanna take peoples kids away?” I can’t win

I have a master’s in psych and several years of experience in mental health, specifically with kids. I get asked by family members if I can help them manage their children. If your kid isn’t throwing things or threatening you or themselves with a knife, then by my standards they’re doing great. Idk what to tell you.

I am a psychologist, and every time someone tries asking me for professional advice (while I'm not working/in academic setting) my brain literally goes STATIC
and I'm not saying this because I wanna be paid to give advice
it literally happens by itself
unless I have my coat on, I am useless
I suppose it's a decent coping mechanism for the hardships of the profession, tho

I’m in my last year of my psych degree. The questions never stop ya’ll, you need at least a masters to have a really good grasp of mental illness but I can tell you about action potential, psychology research, and the negative health effects of stress

Diamond :
Not to mention the fact that you, as the psychologist are supposed to be the one observing the behavior (because what the person complaining says could be bias). That’s literally drilled into us

I’m a psych PhD student but in a non clinical area of psychology and people can’t wrap their mind around the fact that I don’t do anything related to mental health

all through medical school people would present me their rashes and explain obscure symptoms in great detail without be asking... like please stop and see someone who 1) specializes in that field and 2) gets paid for this and 3) can run tests. leave me alone please, I am having some free time right now.

Are you the one that does the “don’t get manipulated” videos? Cuz I love those. Also my abnormal psych professor said from day one “if your story is longer than 1 minute I’m cutting you off” and then proceeded to regularly cut off this one particular lady who ALWAYS had a story relating to the subject. I know he was TIRED
