Medical Psychology Cycle
This week, I'm having my medical psychology cycle. For this cycle, we have to take a special bus that will travel only to the psychiatrical hospital, which is where we will be having both our psychiatrical and medical psychological classes. I know some will be wondering what are the difference between these two subjects. The answer is, you should go find out yourself on the internet because reading what I wrote will not make you remember it as you had no hardship in getting the information.
Back to the topic, so here I am this week, finding myself in a psychiatric hospital. Monday was pretty uneventful. On Tuesday, we were given a patient to talk to, the patient had schizophrenia (has delusions and hallucinations), which made him tell us a lot of bizarre stories like he has been to the moon and how he came back from the moon. Today, we saw 2 patients, 1st of which we think he has severe depression and low self esteem. His stories seems to be quite normal though he kept looking very sad and told us that no one wants to talk to him. The 2nd patient we had was one with paranoid schizophrenia. This subset of patient or at least this patient seems to be hurrying and doing everything very fast. His speech was very fast and were blurry at the end of the sentences. He also had some delusional and hallucination problems. After that, we were sent home but since the place is secluded and the buses only came once in a while. We had to wait for 30minutes in the cold before getting up one.
By the time we reached back to the main station, it was 12.05 noon and we were having Russian classes at 1pm. I forgot about the Russian classes we had and packed for my gym session after my Psychology class. I had no choice but to go for an hour of gym being able to only do my cardio workout before going to the class and heading back for another gym session. With that, I ended my day around 4.45pm heading home for my hot dinner.
