SECdragonmaster, how many dragons have you mastered?
What is the most important thing in life that you value more than anything?
Do you feel honored having a Sunday AMA?
What is one thing that would make TD forums a better place?

That is it’s own thread. But a few off the top of my head:
1. The conferate flag is not historically accurate. Every redneck with a jacked up 4x4 has the wrong flag on it. It was the stars and bars originally.
2. The north was anti slavery. That is bs. The north had “less” slaves than the south.
3. The Emancaption Proclimation ended slavery. It ended slavery in the states that were in opposition to country. If you were a slave in deleware, it didn’t set you free.

My faith. I may not sound like it on here but my faith makes me a better husband, better father, better physician, and helps me with the inevitable chaos of life.

Honored and scared.
Honored to be among the giants of this board. Guys like BowlJackson, PioneerBasketball, etc. At the same time - Scared it would be less than a page long.

More Arkansas, South Carolina, and Tennessee fans. Less Mizzou and bammers.
I give most people a hard time but IRL, I have a lot of fun when I visit Arkansas, LSU, USC for games. Plus y’alls fans seem higher quality and more fun.
I am still forming an opinion on Texas A&M but spur is a good dude.

In your opinion, is Oppositional Defiance Disorder (ODD) a real disorder in children? If not, is it due to bad parenting, a symptom of another mental illness, or none of the above?

Great question. Answer is multifactorial. It’s real in that it is a commonly seen and reproduced clinical picture. But it’s not real in the sense that it has no genetic basis and no application across other cultures.
A terribke set of parents cannot make a good kid turn to ODD.
However, a stubborn kid with a parent that is too focused on “loving” their child over “limiting” their child will almost always produce a kid with ODD.
In 20 years, I have never seen a kid with ODD that had a strong set of parents(2 who were in agreement and set appropriate boundaries). The problem is that when you have a stubborn kid, you can be the best mom/dad in the world and if your partner is weak - you end up with an ODD child. When I say weak, I mean they never follow through on consequences, they make vague threats, they constantly try to explain and justify and educate the child instead of just following through with the consequence.
I feel bad for the child every time. It’s not his/her fault they are not being taught how to succeed in life.

In 2018? I am close to 50. Nope.
In 2005? Still nope. I stood next to him at an Auburn spring game. Dude is a big man.

As an aside, most people are not mentally ill and far too many people are on psychiatric drugs. Most people, with some combination is diet/exercise/faith/and healthy relationships would be fine.
How prevelant is misdiagnosis of mental illness that is not mental illness but rather a result of poor lifestyle choices (too much drinking, no exercise, etc.)?

Parents that whip kids vs parents that don’t believe in the belt which is better?

I would say >75% of the patients I see could be out of therapy and off medication if they really committed to it. I am talking strict diet, daily exercise, spiritual growth, personal responsibility in relationships, and stopping alcohol/drugs.
I am not saying alcohol, etc is inherently bad. They are just terrible for you if you are struggling with mental health issues.
The high misdiagnosis rate is due to two phenomena:
1. Greed by big pharma.
2. Strong desire on the part of people who would rather have a diagnosis than begin to change themselves.
My favorite appointments are my LAST appointments with patients. I love seeing them well and off medication. The look on their face at that moment is what gets me excited about work on Monday.

Neither is better.
I was spanked as a child and it helped me grow up.
But if you are spanking your child over and over, you need to take a look at the rest of your parenting choices. It should be done rarely if at all. I never had to spank either of my kids but neither one is very naturally stubborn. (Got lucky on that one)

Have you ever encountered demonic possession or claimed demonic possession in any patients?
Do you, from a psychiatric standpoint, believe in demonic possession?

Empty nest will be nice. If I get lonely for a dependent, I will hold a competition for the “new spot”.
I'm low maintenance and independent, you'll hardly know I'm there. I cook for myself and do my laundry. All I require is $1000 weekly allowance, all Wi-Fi and netflix passwords, control of the thermostat, and occasional advice on what tools I should use for certain jobs.

Bowl isn't a freeloader who will sit at home sucking up yout Wi-Fi all day long. Bowl actually leaves the house sometimes unlike KSG. Choose him as your son and you'll never have a moment of true alone time in your own house again.

Yes I do believe in spiritual warfare. I have encountered it once. I was leading an inpatient group of 7 adults that were all narcotic dependent and we had a new member admitted the night before. She was previously living in St. Louis but was riding the bus and went into withdrawal and was admitted for detox and treatment. She did not speak at all for the first 30 mins and would just sit there shaking and laughing in a muffled tone.
One of the members finally yelled at her to stop disrupting the group and a few others asked her to leave. Before I could stop them from ganging up on her - she stood up and started pointing her finger at 3 people in the group.
She screamed and said “you had 2 abortions”, “you molested a little girl”, and “you cheated on you husband with his best friend”. Then laughed and fell on the ground and started writhing around.
I was in my third year of residency and had no idea what to do. The only reason I remember it was that each of the 3 people later said what she specifically accused them of was true.
I have never seen anything like it before or since. But I learned 2 important things:
1. Demons are real.
2. People in Missouri are not like the rest of us.

There he is!
I bolded the problem area for me. I keep my place cold. 68 right now. I can’t live with it hot up in here.

Good info. But I have a finished basement with a separate parking pad, entrance, full kitchen, and bed/bath. I might not even hear him down there.
Only problem is I go downstairs in the early am to pray, read, play on the internet, etc.
Are you or KSG heavy sleepers?

I’ve read quite a bit on the subject (by no means am I an expert), but that sounds like a real encounter. It is some very frightening stuff, but it also validates my religious beliefs. Psychiatrists are part of the evaluation protocol, so I was wondering if you had seen it from that perspective.
Interestingly enough, “The Exorcist” was inspired by an exorcism in St. Louis.
Missouri people, outside of Southeast MO, are an odd bunch, no doubt.
