The world needs more really smart PsyDs and many fewer really dumb PhD. I am tired of defending my education as equal to or greater than a PhD program. I am tired of not being taken at my word, based on my program. I am sick of PhD program people spouting the U of M crap, but being unable to justify it, being unwilling to consider alternatives, and lost in the sea of that’s the way Dr. So-and-so said it should be done.
Case in point: I was just talking about a diagnosis of antisocial personality disorder. I was challenged on every point and with every criterion, with the rationale that some U of M Doctor of Psychology teaches that this is a bogus diagnosis and the condition does not really exist. Well then – who the f-ing hell are we locking in all of our prisons? Additionally, none of these bone-heads could remember the lecture on why ASPD is a bogus diagnosis, thus none could offer serious criticism. Thus, it became a “you can’t give that diagnosis because I was in a lecture once where the professor said he didn’t believe in ASPD.”
Smoke and mirrors people - you have been deceived!
And my education is a problem?
How do I get to lecture in front of these buffoons, for I really wish to tell them that I am rich beyond the dreams of avarice and should I ever drive anything but the finest of the world’s automobiles an insidious black hole will open in Illinois and destroy every last kernel of wheat for 1000 miles, resulting in a beer shortage!
Can you imagine the panic of all the faithful Psychology Grad students running to stock pile malted beverages?
