Welcome back to Mental Status!

Today's episode is a fun one as we unpack everything students hear when they tell people they study psychology. If you study psychology, you have more than likely heard many, (and potentially all) of these things, including the famed:

"ArE yOu PsYcHoAnaLYsInG mE?"

Some may make you laugh, while others may make you groan. Regardless, enjoy as we share our honest reactions and reflections hearing these lines. You may even get some ideas for how you can respond!

Today, we're diving into the unique journey of studying and practicing psychology with ADHD. Drawing from lived experience, Josh opens up about some of the challenges he's faced and others may face in managing ADHD through the journey of becoming a Psychologist. He shares what his challenges have looked like, and the strategies he has employed - in both academia and professional practice.

From the rigors of studying psychology, to navigating the complexities of working in the field, Josh sheds light on the multifaceted nature of this process. We discuss the hurdles he's encountered in maintaining focus, managing time and meeting deadlines to achieve goals.

But it's not all about the challenges. Josh also shares the personal insights he's gained and the coping strategies he has drawn upon, hoping it may help current psychology students and professionals navigate similar paths.

Welcome back to Mental Status!

As the year draws to a close, we reflect on the highs, lows, and major moments from our final year in our respective Psychology Masters programs. 
In this year-end review, we look back on the accomplishments that defined our academic journey – from the tens of thousands of words, or hours of role-plays – as well as our personal highlights and lowlights from throughout the year.  We additionally take a moment to look at the year to come and what will no doubt be a huge year for the podcast! 

This episode wraps up our 2023, and wraps up the very first season of Mental Status. If you are reading this - a huge thank you for your support! We will be back in 2024 and we are immensely excited about what lies ahead. Make sure you are subscribed or following the podcast's Instagram to stay up-to-date with the return of Mental Status in 2024!
