I'm back!
fatdan:You
have misdiagnosed me my man
No Dan, I did not. I did stop there though. You are harsh, I am as well. That does not make us bad people. Just who we are. You have your reasons, I certainly have mine. People want to kill me. That's mine. So naturally I want to kill them back. Instead I use them as guinea pigs. Most of them.
fatdan:
failure to answer leaves me skeptical,
The Ph.D. in psychology is a research-intensive program that will take 2-4 years to complete depending on the field of specialization and aptitude of the student. The program will also require a dissertation based on your area of specialization and a one-year internship when in clinical programs. I was not in a clinical program with normal parameters.
The rank of CWO requires special skills Dan. My internship was a hell of a lot longer than 1 year in a clinical setting. Maybe that is what your friends are explaining. The clinical setting and oversight is mainly for the licensure of a clinical psychologist that wants to sit down and try to fix bent and broken minds. Once broken, there is no true fix, only patches. Patches fall off in time. Chemical lobotomies take place. Don't try to tell them that though.
My Alma Mater shall stay private. I hope you understand. Clinical military psychologists treat:
- Career and leadership issues
- Grief
- Stress management
- Anger management
I do not. Although clinical would be a reach for what I do, it is better explained as a sub-specialty. It is better defined as research, or business. Both require a doctorate without the oversight. I do hope this helps you to understand there are many different types of psychologists with different lengths of studies and testing requirements. Generalisation of the freaks that sit in offices and listen to peoples problems, real or imagined is not a group I care to be connected with.
I prefer > This is my rifle. There are many like it, but this one is mine.>>> The creed. I also prefer to remain somewhat private. Doing this is against my very fiber as it will either result in more confrontation or people thinking I am spending what little time I have secretly labeling them. I think you're smart enough to know what type of category most of the megaposters fit into if you read the smallest amount of the Alderian Theory I suggested to you. They self diagnose with every strike on the keyboard.
fatdan: worked her butt off until she was 40, little social life,
nose to the grindstone, then she died last Wed. at age 54
My condolences. More a waste of life itself to deny oneself of the pleasantries during the process. What social life do you think it is in the Corps Dan.
It's not all Saturday nights with chicks, and twinkies Sunday morning you know. Your dollars were wisely invested in me and the folks I trained. Many older than I was. Time studying was minimal. Most of it is common sense to me. On the job and on the fly training beat the customary training all week long when there is no book to study from. The book is being written as we skepticise towards each other.
Look Dan, none of this makes me any smarter than anyone in here. There are people in here that do wonderful things that I could never do. Intellect is a measure of life events put into practice. No college or book will ever teach you more than real world events.
I have chosen to dedicate my life in the pursuit of knowledge of why do people do what they do. I have a vested interest in protecting my family and the country they live in. We have done a job that some people would have us not do at all because of falsified preconceptions and outright lies. The amount of information we have obtained is vast and directly responsible for saving thousands of lives.
If you think I am being dishonest with you then that is an entitlement in your mind. Nothing I type can or will change that. Get the guy that owes you 5 bucks or whatever the amount was to pay up. Lying is not something I cotton too if you remember some of the past posts.
You have succeeded where others have failed epicly in getting me to reveal the smallest parts of my life. To bad this was not in the other thread that all the hose bags ran the OP out of his thread, and the game apparently.
I had the opportunity to get to know him a small bit. He was the voice of reason. One of very few. It is a true shame folks marginalised him. He deserved much better during a difficult time in his life. I could see that as a stranger. What does that say about his supposed friends that hurled javelins at him?
Again, thank you for being less abrasive towards me as we were to each other in the past. I'm not one to pontificate as I have been accused. I answer the best way I feel the words I choose do not lose their meaning or have them perceived in any other way than how they were written.
I respect (hope I got that right) your right to question everything. :-) Lord knows I've shed enough blood with many others to continually keep that right for you.
Anyone that works and receives a degree in anything Dan does not give them the right to look down their nose at you. Those people have traded their souls for a useless piece of paper. I knew my share of bartenders that would give better advice than Psychologists, Psychiatrists, and Therapists. I only capitalised them in case there may very well be others in here reading this. To which I say, Get a life.
The ones you know will never come in here because they could not hold their own against you, let alone the others. :-))
That's not an insult. Ever insult a doctor Dan? I have. They just look at you like a deer looking at headlights. Completely clueless of how to react. Emotionless automatons that think every word they say is gospel.
I do hope you understand the use of your name I explained previously. As for mine, I fully expect the raspberries and worse that comes with the choice. There is a reason.
The 1st is a precursor that I have a sense of humor.
Happy trails.
HAH! Good one Dan. I saw your post before I posted this. Thanks for shortening it up. You do indeed have a good memory, or a large compilation of peoples writings. I won't go into why. LMAO.
There is a small bit I left out of that. You got 97% of it though.
Farewell Mr. Dan.
