You have no interest in psychiatry or medicine. You have an interest in MONEY. If it paid ONLY 100K you'd be working some other $h!tty hustle. And you're willing to promote politically motivated lies about race, human sexuality and family to get that money no matter how many lives are destroyed by those lies. Now go ask your mother why she couldn't raise a decent human being.

Hi doctors ! Thank you so much for this video ! I've always been interested in psychiatry and in a few days we'll be able to choose a speciality (the equivalent of your ''matching day'' ) i wanted to see the stories of other psychiatrists who picked it and i wasn't disappointed at all ❤️ can't wait to be one of you 😊

Thank you for the tips!

Nice advice at the end!

This was such a helpful way to hear about your interest and decision-making in psychiatry!

it would be so awesome if you guys kept uploading videos!!

I bet you two are pretty busy, but I would love to see another update on your residency:D Fingers crossed 🤞🏼 I hope all is well :D

Hi Dr. Yoki and Dr. Lu, thank you for your videos, they have been really helpful! I am applying for psychiatry through couples match this year and was wondering if there is any way I can contact you to ask some questions about the process. Thanks!

I’m an MS1 interested in psychiatry:)

I've been waiting for this kind of video. Your video gives a wonderful vibe by the way. But I don't think this is UK based psychiatry.

12:25 great advice

Thanks for the info. Did you need step 3 for the application?

fuego !!!!!!!!

I've seen 300k and up for local job openings for psychiatrists

Leo cameo was my fave haha 😂 🐈

Thank you for this really helpful video! 👍👍👍Can I please ask the difference between clinical psychologist and psychiatrist? I am struggling to choose one the subjects, clinical psychology or medicine😂 As some websites said psychiatrists do not usually do therapy and can prescribe medicine, but many psychiatrists also do the therapy, so does that mean the only difference of the working contents between psychiatrists and clinical psychologists is medicine prescription? Thank you!

Super helpful. One downside of being a psychiatrist I can think is - you have to be fluent and fluid in the language you are consulting. I am a Brazilian European, and I would like to be mobile.

Ai is fixing that problem. It can translate languages in real time now , and with earphones, your patients will be able to understand you in real time .

Hello and thank you so much for this informative video! I was wondering if there were any fascinating TV shows/ movies I could watch that relate to psychiatry and that could help me learn more about the field?

There is this Korean drama 'it's okay, it's love" it's has decent touch on psychiatry.

I don’t have the Math level for medicine I still want something in mental health I have been leaning towards a professional Counselor/therapist sorry if this come off as a bad thing to say. It thank you for helping me narrow down that medical route is not for me

I'm considering my doctorate in Psychology after completing my graduate degree in Psychology. 🙏🏾

Thanks for making this, I know I got a lot from it personally. I feel myself drawn towards psychiatry, but there is one thing that concerns me and that is the prescribing of medication. Do you guys try to avoid prescribing meds as much as possible and can someone be a psychiatrist and not prescribe medication at all?

Hopefully this is helpful after 2 years😭 I'm also leaned into psychiatry, and from what I understand most patients a psychiatrist might encounter will probably need medication since psychiatrists deal with more serious mental disorders then a psychologist would But I myself have had a similar thought, I feel like a lot of psychiatrist just prescribe medication and nothing more, if I succeed in becoming a psychiatrist I'd rather only give medication when actually needed and lean into psychotherapy

​@jello7177 That's exactly what I want to do , less mess unless absolutely necessary, and more psychotherapy.

How different is intern year in a psychiatry residency program from other specialities. For instance, most IM or FM residency programs have you start seeing and managing patients immediately. I'm interested in a psychiatry residency, but besides my core rotation I don't have enough experience. So how are you being taught or supervised as a intern?

Hey Keren, thanks for watching our video! Intern year in psychiatry is different than in other specialties because the time spent on non-psychiatry rotations is shorter. So for psychiatry intern year, we only do 6 months total of medicine, neurology, and emergency medicine (some programs do require ICU too). Psychiatry residents on medicine rotations still function like any other intern - we manage patients independently but work alongside a senior resident. I'm not sure how intern year is like in other programs, but in my program I get plenty of supervision so I never feel like I don't know what I'm doing. I ask my senior resident any questions I have and they also help with tasks that need to be done. I hope this helped!

Thank you so much for this video. I was wondering if you ever considered to become a clinical psychologist or a neurologist.

Hi! Thanks for stopping by our channel. We never considered clinical psychology before because we didn't decide on psychiatry until we were in medical school- but it's a great field! We love practicing psychotherapy which they do a lot of. Yoki did seriously consider neurology during medical school because there are so many interesting diseases within neurology. She ultimately went with psychiatry as it best suited all of her interests!
