Passed #PLAB1 !
Can't wait for #PLAB2 this year...is the #psychiatry training dream getting close?
🤞

Medical #internship over? Feels like another lifetime!
If I could change something:
- night shift, not 36 hour calls
- better team accountability
- smart paperwork
- more practical skills classes

Can't believe I graduated #AKU twice!
Note to self: never wear someone else's shoes

10 months of #internship at Aga Khan University after med school at the same! What could be better than one alumni card? Two alumni cards!

2 months and 2 days to go, but who's counting?

Considering that veterans of the system consider themselves martyrs, who will sign off on change in the poorly state of mental health in healthcare workers?

My own take on my #ADHD is quite different.

I feel the world fast-paced, not myself. I want to slow down inside, and #methylphenidate helps me do that. Makes the workers in the back-office of my mind walk calmly with their files.

#Neurodiversity ?

Post call shivers anyone? After extensive study, I've detailed the biological mechanisms of this abstruse syndrome.

This the most fulfilling research I've ever done.

People with unADHD brains are different & these differences deserve advocacy. UnADHD is real. People with unADHD have different brains than people w/ ADHD. It is critical to understand unADHD so that behaviours are not mistaken as punctual, disciplined, or, motivated.

Woah I graduated! 🎓
And I started my career with an internship! 💉 (can't be portrayed better with anything apart from a needle)
And I started writing (again)!

Never take a book to work. Half your reading time goes into telling people what you're reading 📚

Every exposure makes me think.

Gives me the privilege of learning.

Teaches me how to look differently.

And then gives me the freedom to participate in interactions my own way.

Glad to have gotten honours in Psychiatry last year!

Only have my mentors to thank!

Falah members (with representation from each branch!), in collaboration with the Dept of Fam Med & Chair Dr. Unab Khan, volunteered at AKU's new primary healthcare site. Med students performed exams and screened pts under supervision. This day has been years in the making!!

Congrats to our UGME coordinator Dr ShireenScheherzadeNajam for holding 5 #Psychiatry honor vivas for med students with the help of Dr Ali Hashmi, today. She is the driving force in leading students to excel in Psychiatry. V r very proud of her. Nargis Asad Adil Haider Psychiatry Going Global
