Hey, Dr. Im 39. Last night I decided I want to be a psychiatrist. I don't really care how old I'll be when I finish lol. I work as a stationary engineer now and make a good salary, but I'm not doing the same job my whole life and after reading a few books (about a bit of everything) Psychiatry is my calling. I'd like for you to be my beacon and confidant. You have pleasant energy. I trust what you are saying.

I’m in 10th grade right now, and I’ve made up my mind to be a psychiatrist… I’m just very lost and unsure as to where I should start as for my high school courses… This video really inspired me :)

[MatthewOceanXVX]

32 and attending medical school at 34 to be a psychiatrist. Thanks for the inspiration.

Thank you Dr. Jackie for the great advice! Yes, Stigma is a big one. Somehow people believe it's okay to see a dentist when we have toothaches but don't need to see a psychiatrist when our hearts are broken. Giving additional trauma to people who are already struggling with traumas.

I’m only in eighth grade, but I’d love to be a psychiatrist. I’m dedicated to making a future for myself and helping people as much as possible, so I came here to find out what types of things would be useful.

Future psychiatrist here, more so interested in either holistic care or pain subspeciality. There are not a lot of psychiatry content on YouTube but I’m glad I stumbled upon yours.
Subscribed! Looking forward to what you showcase to your audience. ✨

Ps. You’re very well soft-spoken. I could listen to you all day! 🧡

I have SO much respect for people who work with children. I worked in childcare briefly and am on the path to be a psychiatrist but not under the child specialty haha. Thank you so much for this and the genuineness!

22-years old, took the last 3-4 years of my life to enable myself to trade full-time. I'm living in a comfortable place & steadily progressing. However, I've come to realize and appreciate just how valuable having an education is. I want to be known for something more and push the limits of my capabilities. I'm still young and don't want to settle my scope of knowledge here. I want to understand the complexity of something that I'm very passionate about as someone who's suffered mental health for a very long time; supporting the vision of becoming more than who I am now. My journey begins 🙏 thank you for this video.

If/when I finally go see a psychologist or psychiatrist I fully understand I am responsible for “fixing” myself. They are there to help and guide me and I will trust them even if the results are not exactly what I hoped for. Even though people are struggling, all you can do is try to help and that’s noble in itself. 🙂

My wife recently told me to look into this since I love helping people so much. I'm the type of person who wants your to be better for you. And whoever else is with you but mainly for your health convincing someone their worth every second of life just makes me happen when you see the smile and progression

I am in 10th grade going in 11th soon and I always wanted to pursue a medical field further ever since I was in middle school and I wanted to go for a surgeon but it was too overwhelming and I could not make my mind upon but I gave up that idea in 8th grade and I was in a bad mental state with regards to academics and personal issues due to which I consulted a psychiatrist from an online meeting and she made me feel so comfortable and warm even tho I never had met her just the thought of her understanding me gave me a sense of relief and now since that day forward I've always looked up to becoming a psychiatrist and I have made up my mind for over a year now and I will be determined and focused on accomplishing that goal, I want to become a psychiatrist and you giving us such prior idea and letting us know about such details makes me really joyful, may god bless you miss dr.

[saintsam]

Im preparing for step 1. I often think about that when I get through these exams ill get into Psychiatry. Just subscribed to your channel.

[rumellborja]

[EzraB]

What a beautiful and intelligent women, your insight is appreciated doctor!

I worked as a Hospital Corpsman (navy medic) in an inpatient mental health unit for about half of my 6 years in the military. There is nothing in this life I'd rather do.

I'm in Year 7. I really admire your work as a psychiatrist and find your videos incredibly inspiring. I hope to become a psychiatrist one day, just like you. And i have finally made my decision:>

[jannmikoingelrabagogamingc]

Wow, this is the first time I heard of countertransference, and how important it is, really!
Thankfully, I have something new that I learned today - thank you very much Doktora Jackie~ ❤️

[emrald]

I'm currently going into the 9th grade ( I'm 14) and this really comforted me. I know my dream job is a psychiatrist and I'm glad that I came across this video. :)

Thank you Dr Jackie for sharing your experience. I wish I could have been a soft speaker and having patience to listen to my patients. I am also a medical doctor. Ever since my pre med course, I would want to become a psychiatrist someday. Early this year I entered Psychiatry Residency in a government medical center in our country. Yet I quit residency because my past traumas resurfaced. During my ER duty I experienced a passive aggressive approach of my senior doctors to the point I lose myself on the process. From that day on I was suffering from severe anxiety and having thoughts of suicide. I know to myself that I need help. I resigned on my job and seek consult of another psychiatrist and I started to take SSRI and anxiolytics. I hope one day I could go back to Psychiatry. But I received a job opportunity in Canada as a nurse and I accepted that offer. It would take me 3 years to finish my contract as a nurse before I could go back to serve my purpose, to become a Psychiatrist to help people suffering from mental problems
