TS is in Singapore, the doctors going to assess him are in Singapore, he asked a question based on these and I answered him in kind. Why do you have to start talking about what other countries practice? What has US, UK and Australia got to do with saf medical board?Originally posted by Gedanken:Ah, you're stuck with the Singaporean view of things. It's funny that you're obsessed enough with me to find out my qualifications, but not to work out the more obvious thing, which is that I practice in Australia where qualification standards are more stringent and are subject to more legal requirements than in Singapore. Then again, given the limited capacity of your palsied mind and your crippling dependence on the borders of your fishbowl, that's no surprise at all.
Where this comes into relevance is that in countries like the US, UK and Australia, the fields of psychology and psychiatry have developed to the point where psychologists are acknowledged to be the specialists in assessment, while psychiatrists tend to specialise in prescription-based treatments. The mutual respect and recognition between the two fields readily and easily exists - my psychiatrist counterparts and I often joke about how we're the witch doctors and they're the drug pushers. Being excluded from both fields, your insistence on applying your myopically title-based, backwater banana-republic view of things only goes to further demonstrate your hillbilly ignorance. I already know you're a suaku - you don't have to keep proving it to me.
It's funny how you accuse me of claiming to be what I'm not. Given how you claim to know what you obviously don't, not only have you proven how your ignorance and stupidity get in the way of grace, you've now demonstrated your hypocrisy as well. Keep shooting yourself in the foot - it's quite entertaining.
He is out of point as TS is certainly not serving in the Australian army.Originally posted by Ristar:he is saying that he is qualified in countries that are of higher standards, in case u arent able to read in between the lines.
its got nothing to do with the Australian Army.Originally posted by Stoat:He is out of point as TS is certainly not serving in the Australian army.

Ah, baring your ignorance again for the world to gaze upon. Listen and learn from Ristar - unlike you, he's got the capacity to understand what's going on.Originally posted by Stoat:TS is in Singapore, the doctors going to assess him are in Singapore, he asked a question based on these and I answered him in kind.

No, no, no - fymk's the nurse. I'm not qualified to do her job.Originally posted by Skibi:In other words, you're just a nurse.
U r right, mo say most likely pes e, but try to push me to pes c.Originally posted by will4:I think the TS is not required to go for reservist after he finished his service.
Please consult to ur psychiatrist n ask for excuse from firearms.Originally posted by Guilmon1987:U r right, mo say most likely pes e, but try to push me to pes c.
cos he already knows ur kancheongness to escape army mah... expression on ur face signals to him liao...Originally posted by Guilmon1987:U r right, mo say most likely pes e, but try to push me to pes c.
Give him the benefit of the doubt n show compassion.Originally posted by Ristar:if u just break down and go n eat grass like a cow, talk gibberish and pee like a dog in public, shiver uncontrollably and scream at people when they approach u, i think u dun need to serve army anymore.
Hey Ristar. I don't think it's fair for you to shoot him down like this until you are sure of anything.Originally posted by Ristar:and in the end, u fail at this simple task miserably. tsk tsk tsk.
u know when i first read your post, i couldnt believe that such a person exists.
after re-reading your problems, i think that everything u specified can be faked easily.
It may sound like it, but there's not enough in this thread to reach that conclusion - if you're familiar with the DSM or ICD systems you'll know what I mean. The story as it stands raises too many questions and has too many missing pieces. As it is, there's one very likely sign that one would expect from OCD cases, but that this kid hasn't displayed at all in this thread. For the moment, that's as far as I'll go because revealing what that sign is will help him to fake the symptoms, and as I said, I'll have no part of that.Originally posted by chanjyj:He may well have a problem, and it sure sounds like OCD to me. (I was a medical student).
No matter, I am diagnose with slight autism. Now don't come telling me people with autism don't even post at boards or dare approach the doctors.Originally posted by Gedanken:It may sound like it, but there's not enough in this thread to reach that conclusion - if you're familiar with the DSM or ICD systems you'll know what I mean.

And why would I tell you that?Originally posted by Guilmon1987:Now don't come telling me people with autism don't even post at boards or dare approach the doctors.
Well, you right from that perspective, but maybe the kid just hasn't mentioned it. But frankly, I find it hard that he can fool an MO to the extent of OOC? Maybe the SAF's quality is really getting worse.Originally posted by Gedanken:It may sound like it, but there's not enough in this thread to reach that conclusion - if you're familiar with the DSM or ICD systems you'll know what I mean.

Wait... hold your horses.. SAF psychiatrist diagnose you with mild autism? That, to me, is the strangest outcome I would have expected.Originally posted by Guilmon1987:No matter, I am diagnose with slight autism. Now don't come telling me people with autism don't even post at boards or dare approach the doctors.
The verdict is out and I am content with the outcome. That is what is important to me.
Fair enough, chan. I'd have forgotten all of that too if I didn't do the occasional refresher for amusement.Originally posted by chanjyj:Well, you right from that perspective, but maybe the kid just hasn't mentioned it.

With regards to the ICD and DSM systems, I've grown rusty, as I have moved away from the medical profession into another trade. If you quote me any ICD-10-CM I may remember, but DSM is long gone, not least due to the fact I did not specialise in that area of medicine.
Odd, isn't it? This one hasn't added up right from the start and that's why I have my doubts.Originally posted by chanjyj:Wait... hold your horses.. SAF psychiatrist diagnose you with mild autism? That, to me, is the strangest outcome I would have expected.
Some of your symptoms (or whatever you want to call them) are that of autism, but everything else you say doesn't match up at all.
And regarding your coodination problem, CANNOT BE DUE TO AUTISM. (unless, of course, you are imagining it)
What Gedanken is saying, is that his analysis of the TS's problem, would be the same as that of a Singapore psychologist, or rather, psychiatrist in this case.Originally posted by Gedanken:Ah, baring your ignorance again for the world to gaze upon. Listen and learn from Ristar - unlike you, he's got the capacity to understand what's going on.
What it has to do with the medical board is that regardless if you're in Singapore, New York or Timbuktu, international standards and procedures for diagnosis apply. I'd tell you about the DSM and ICD, but you'd end up straining what little intellectual capacity you have and end up in pain. Suffice to say that both diagnostic systems are standardised so that a practicioner in one country can pick up a diagnosis made by his counterpart in another country and be able to understand exactly what he's dealing with. I understand that you make things up as you go along, but not everybody is as slipshod as you.
To put it simply enough for even you to understand, because the diagnostic process is the same across countries, whether I'm applying it as a SAF psychiatrist or an Australian psychologust does not make a jot of difference.
Wake up and smell the coffee - that fishbowl you live in doesn't constitute the sum of existence, suaku.
