Phillipa and I were babbling and the topic of how slow it is around here came up.
I explained to her my surprise, as to, how slow it seems around here too, at least in "Medications" anyways.I went on to share with her that, out of boredom, I have even recently been googlin', for other sites that may be similar to this beloved site, to help me pass the time and whatnot.
If you find yourself in a similar situation, I would like to share a youtube channel of a local (to me) psychiatrist.
He has many videos and is very active in posting new videos on many different topics that mostly, are medication related.
He is kinda' a quirky guy, (who isn't?) that shares much of his "quirkyness" in his videos. Don't worry......... at least not yet, he is a licensed M.D. practicing in Reno, NV.
I can't remember all the details but, when he was starting his youtube channel, he was investigated by "authorities" because somebody was ALARMED and reported that there was a "crazy" man posing as a doctor and posting videos about psychiatry and "stuff."
The story ran in our daily newspaper and many people who knew him ran to his defense (on youtube and at the newspaper) and were posting comments in support of him. He also naturally, had comments posted, attacking him and trying to cast a negative light on him.......... whatever......
<_< The arrows are an emoticon trying display eyes rolling in my head, if you didn't know.?.? It's a new trick I learned. :).......Anyways.........I was a patient of his at a psychiatric hospital in Reno. He was a very kind and caring individual towards me.
He is successful in his private practice, or so I have heard. He was also one of the favorite doctors at the hospital I was treated in.
I will leave it to you to form your own opinion of him. I am no longer a participant in phychiatry. I will leave it to you if you believe that I should be. haha
OK, here's the link.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. I like checking out what he's doing and stuff.
Regards
P.S. PLEASE take it easy on me Lou!?!? I mean no harm, I promise!!

Glad you decided to share. And hoping traffic picks up. But traffic in a good way. No one wants to see someone sick. Maybe it means all are well. Phillipa

Yeah, I like him too. He' definitely not your typical doctor in a white suit and rigid essence.He has quite a few life experiences and achievements that are interesting about him and he shares them in his videos.
One, that I found interesting is that, he is a black belt in karate. That might have come in handy for him while he was working in the psych ward lol.... kidding.
One Love

Yeah thanks.
Even the suicidal forums I found are dead. (no pun intended) Maybe it's the spring in the air. I know I'm feeling better.I can totally see (as he points out in his first video) how mania episodes are at their peak at this time of year.
One Love
^^^ How does that signature work Phillipa? I hope I'm not stealing it from anybody here.?.?

Doctorofmind reminds me of a youth pastor who's trying too hard to be cool while he indoctrinates the youth. Kind of embarassing to watch. But I like his outfit. I have one just like it.

I know. "Who exactly is the crazy one here"? lol
He's not that whacky when it comes to his patients, at least, not to me.
He does enjoy sharing a sense of humor as long as it's appropriate.
I guess a sense of humor is good for a doctor in a psych ward......

I love drofmindmd! Somehow I stumbled onto his site maybe a couple years ago. He used to have a lot more videos on meds, but at one point he took down all of the videos he had made and started over. The new stuff is good, but I miss the old videos, they were very funny and informative as well, of course just one pdocs opinion though...

I guess you got to his videos before me, I never saw his old stuff. Maybe it was after he was "investigated" that, he took some down that may have had questionable content...???
