I personally think I had a great experience at Seven Hills Hospital during my psychiatric clinical rotation. During the rotation‚ I got to experience different units of the psychiatric hospital and experience many different cases of mental health. In the adolescent unit‚ it was very surprising to find out that most of the children that were admitted there came from broken homes. It really hit me hard hearing some of their stories about how they were beaten or their parents were not around at all

Clinical Reflection 1. Recall the activity‚ idea‚ or event that gave you the most intense learning “high”. What was it about this situation that was so exciting or pleasing? Working with actual patients is completely different than studying at the tech center and doing labs or bookwork. I liked having an actual connection with the patients while feeling professional. It was hard to be professional with the other students studying at JATC because we are all so close and it is weird to treat a friend

Throughout my high school years I dealt with depression. At the start of my sophomore year‚ I was diagnosed with clinical depression‚ a type of depression that is linked with fatigue. While in social settings‚ internally there was an urge to lay down and rest‚ while on the outside I was perky and all smiles! I was without goals and always off with friends to distract myself; feelings did not phase me because I was used to shutting them out. My mother decided after a while that I needed help to get
