@Anti: I was about to say, that's a very nice happy medium you've struck there I've thought about cutting my hair a few times too... it's way too long now...

Aw such shiny lovely hair why would you cut it?

[Cream Soda]

I think it looks better cut, no homo

Well y'see... every time it gets to waist length I sort of spazz out and go "Oh crap, it's too long and I must look awful."

Cue some drastic hair cut - last time, it was into a bob.
Not a good look - instant regret!

I think I'm coming back to that point in the cycle where I imagine that I would look better with shorter hair >.>

@Finesse: Don't worry, real-life friends are pulling me back from the scissors too

Of course not :D In the NHS, it is forbidden for those in the profession to prescribe medication for their families or friends. It's normal practice to register under another GP. Every prescription is (usually) carefully checked to ensure careless prescription, theft or general malpractice doesn't occur so easily.

I don't get what you are saying. Are you saying a psychiatrist in the UK can't prescribe benzos? I didn't mean to your family.. I just ment you can in general.

It probably depends on the route you choose to go down. Many students come into the course with similar ideas - becoming clinical or forensic psychologists for example, but my interest lies more toward biological and cognitive psychology (attempts to understand the computations of the nervous system and its translations of raw sensory information into perception).

@Titanss: Oh right. I suppose one could, but then again it would be at the professional discretion of the psychiatrist to judge whether you are a suitable recipient for benzos.

As long as you stay out of a psych ward you are golden once you go in there you are a lost soul in my eyes and worthless human being.

Has this come from previous experience?
I think those who do end up having experience in the wards tend to be those aiming for clin. psychology, or those who have gone into mental health nursing.

The niche I'm settling in is fairly unpopular amongst students due to its abstract nature and difficult concepts (oh, I should also mention that many people find it mind-numbingly boring). In terms of funding, cognitive psychology has such a wide range of research areas that it readily receives the money it asks for (depending on whether or not you are attending a Red Brick University, which I am). It's also interesting when cognitive psychologists then collaborate with computer programmers to try and build ideal computational models mimicking human behaviour... Perhaps if I am good enough, one day I might become a lecturer and follow the path of my supervisor... but that all remains to be seen...

@Mexichu: Human bean! I've not heard that one, oddly enough...
