The Student Psychiatrist

My name is Morgan and I have been through a lot in the 17 years I have been alive. Death, bad breakups, bad family situations, tough friend situations, rough school conditions, everything. As a student going along the path to become a psychiatrist, I love helping others and giving them advice based on experience and knowledge. I feel that the best kind of advice comes from those who have experienced similar situations. I am here to help. We all need someone to talk to and to get advice from and what not and not all of us have that individual who we can go to. That is why I have started this blog. I am here for those who feel they have no one else to turn to. *PLEASE NOTICE* All advice will be presented from anonymous situations. I will not publicly address those who seek my advice and such. If you do not have an account and wish to contact me, please contact me at: [email protected]

Alone: Questioning Myself.

Why do I hold back how I really feel about others? Why do I lie about friendships? As I sit here and ponder it, I come to the conclusion that it is due to the fact that I do not want to be alone. Why don't I let my aggression and feelings take over me? Why am I so afraid of losing what I don't even want to have? These are questions I will never find answers for. I am sure others feel this way and I am not alone in this. I want to tell people how I really feel about them. I want to show people that I'm not the person they think I am.

Impromptu Advice About Love

Here’s something I’ve been thinking about a lot lately. You may think you love someone, but it may not actually be love. You’re making yourself think it is love because you want to love so badly. You have so much love to give. Maybe she’s not the right person for your love. Maybe he’s not the right person for my love. Maybe we are just trying to latch onto someone and trying to give them all of this love that we want, no, we need to share. We are blind that this is not the person for us. We are blind that it may be. We are blind to the fact that our other half may still be out there, we just haven’t met them yet. It makes us so lonely and so the first person we have a chance with, we thrust what we need to give onto them, and they do not accept it.

A Selfish Society

Society. Day by day I see more and more selfishness and ignorance to others. I am here to say that it must stop. It absolutely must. People say "survival of the fittest" and I used to believe that whole heartedly. But more and more I see innocent, good people be treated horridly by the selfish and ignorant. I am not saying this because I am a "child of God" and this and that. I am simply a human being that has been exposed to—over and over again—the reality and cruelness of the world. Please, do not be selfish, do not be ignorant. I beg you. You will feel fulfilled and just. Be kind to others.

Talking Behind One's Back.

I believe you could assume that we all do it. We all talk behind someone’s back at one point or another. Talking behind someone’s back is the start of gossip, rumors, fights, anger, insecurity, self-consciousness, and much more. Sometimes there is a brave soul who stands up for the victim. Defends them for they most likely know the person better. Most of the time, however, we all just sit, listen, and even sometimes throw in little comments ourself. Humanity is cruel. Society is a ruin. We need more brave souls to give justice to those who do not know they are a victim. When engaged in a conversation that turns into gossip behind one’s back, take a stand. Defend that individual. They will forever be grateful.

Regret, Guilt, and Shame.

Have you ever done something you regret? Have you ever done something that overwhelmed you with guilt? Have you ever done something that overflowed you with shame? I know the answer because we all have. These three words—these three feelings are connected. We commit an act. First we enjoy it. “It’s fun. It’s this and that.” Then you regret it. After the act sits in your mind an absorbs completely, you feel guilt and shame. These are painful. Usually associated with relationships. We’ve all been through relationships that we regret, that have shamed us. The thing we have to do however is accept the past and not allow it to happen again. Be strong.

We all have them. They’re friends. Some are fake. Some are real. Some are life-long. Some are short-term. Friends vary in every sense. No matter the age or gender, should be try to be friends with all. Who knows? Maybe your best friend may be the love of your life. We all need friends to survive. Sometimes, however, we cling to those friends that are fake and were never really our friends in the first place. As they say “you live and you learn”. We all find those certain people that love and care about us for who we are. Friends are important in ones life, yet they may be a struggle to hold on to here and there.

Get to Know Them.

A may reason for bullying is that young people today take offense to almost anything (ex. a "look", a comment). They also do not take the time to get to know new people. They judge people by one experience that they share. People's behavior depends on their environments (people they are with, who they are with, etc.). They do not realize what the individual they are judging has been through. Abuse (physical, verbal, mental, emotional), bullying, tough living situations. Do not judge people immediately. Get to know them, even if its just a little. Who knows? You may just meet one of the most important people in your life.

The Truth.

It hurts. People don’t accept it lightly, but it always needs to be spoken. Be blunt. Hurt those people’s feelings because in the future, they will thank you.

[studentpsychiatrist]

Breakdowns.

We all do. We all breakdown from emotional stress every now and then. It is good for us to release the emotion that we allow ourselves to build up. Hiding emotion is not healthy, both mentally and physically. Breakdown, vent. Get it out.

Positive.

Did you know that some negative things can be positive? And that it is possible to turn a negative into a positive? Well it's true.

Decisions.

Life changing and petty. Decisions take all forms. Weigh each carefully for it could utter destroy you or raise to limits you never thought could be reached.

Liar: The Personal Experience

At some point in our lives we all lie. Whether it be a little white lie or a life changing one, we all have or will participate in the activity. I have. I am a liar. I am not afraid to admit it for I see now it was wrong and I feel the need to share my experience to help others. My lying occurred over a 9 month span mainly. My first lie led to many many more, which therefore made the story difficult to keep straight. I knew, as I told every lie, I would be reprimanded because I would be caught. And I was. I ratted myself out. I now live a life of truth--mostly, since to some I don't know what to do but lie to them. Now the thing about truth is, is that it can cause you pain. And so that causing more lying, more misleading. However, if one cannot accept the truth, that individual is not worth your time. One must be able to withstand the truth. Let the truth be positive, accept it with appreciation. Let the truth be negative, take that fault and turn it into something positive. It is not impossible, trust me for I have done it. Now that I have stopped my drastic lying I am happier. I am again the person I was before. Do not lie to those you care about. Do not lie to those you love. Do not lie to those who will, in the long run, be severely hurt by the truth when it does reveal itself for it will do so. This all means not to lie to anyone. It only causes harm. You must think of the consequences that you must face in the future do to it, regardless of the present situation. Trust me.

Ignorance.

Most of society is filled with ignorant and immature people. We who are neither of these things must rise up and not allow this people to bring us to their level. There are many of us, I know it. People will act rudely to you, mistreat you mentally and emotionally. They are not worth your valuable time, do not waste it on them.
