Do you work 12 hour shifts?

TAHNK you so much for posting about your life experiences it helps so much

In contrast to others feedback about the video length, I think the length of this video was perfect. As someone who is currently struggling with depression, a lot of these tips hit home for me. Thank you for sharing Yeonni

Thank you!

thank you

Thank you for making this video. I always thought asking my depressed friend "hows your depression?" will be overstepping or something . Or it will make him feel weird about it. But now i understand. Thank you

Hey, great video!! I wonder what happens to students who don't get a match on the match day? Can you please tellll

thank you so much

do you wear lab coat?

Your voice is very calming

❤❤

I've been talk this to psychiatrist and he said that I'm too flattered myself and just be a nonchalant... Actually it's not really helping since the victim knows who are normal and not normal

Hey i have latex allergy. Is social work for me? Can anyone help regarding this.. It would be a great help. 🤞🏼💗

Social work is not a career, or a job, or something one does to while the day. Social work is a calling. You are a priest to those who need help. (Says an auditor and former chaplain, to be candid.) Thank you for your hard work!

I feel like this is more about people that don't talk about their depression, like those surface level friends .. But what if that person vents to you every single day 24/7 ? And it's been 5 months now, i've tried everything to help them and support them, but it's been 5 months and nothing is getting better, and i feel so helpless, what more can i do? All advice and tips i see are just about the beginning of discovering that someone has depression or is suicidal, but what after that? What do you do after ? What if months pass and it's still the same even with things you did? "Check up on them" we literally talk everyday about it..and i put so much effort and time and energy into comforting them and reassuring them..what more should i do??? What is left there???

the soul of the research are the study coordinators, it is really unfair the reality of the low salary

This helped me a lot. Thank you ❤

Other ppl: bro im 1h late Me: I’m 5ys la-💀

This job is shit. I'd rather be working at a supermarket but I guess I got too old to do that anymore.

I am close to finishing my accelerated masters degree in social work and I also am interested in joining a PsyD program

I love the intentionality!

There are actually two required policy classes- policy 1 and advanced policy. Those are full macro!

Thank you for sharing your experiences, insights, and perspectives throughout your journey as an MSW student to a PhD student. I’m finishing up my clinical year in my MSW program and I remember watching your channel religiously for months before I began applying for MSW programs more than two years ago now. Your videos have been really helpful in preparing me for what to sorta expect during my education and internships, especially because you clearly are offering us viewers a no-bullshit insider’s perspective into what is possibly one of the biggest life decisions people like you or I will ever make, in terms of majorly influencing the trajectory of our lives and all its repercussions. While I don’t see myself pursuing a PhD program upon graduating this May, I do plan on doing so in the far future, as I’m just planning on surviving the next 20 years as me & my wife will hopefully begin our journey towards becoming married couple and starting our family. Anyways, thanks for your videos. I can’t believe I realized I wasn’t subscribed this entire time, so I made sure to subscribe this time, now that I noticed that! Take care, good luck.

Is it possible to do PsyD after doing MSW in Ontario, Canada?

Hey Yeonni, as a fellow Asian American counseling psych PhD student (originally from the East Coast, now in the Midwest) , I relate to what you described in this video so much. You spoke so beautifully about the wisdom you gleaned from all those mixed experiences too. Life can be messy, but it can also be beautiful too, it's all part of the journey. Rooting for you and who you will become along the journey of life!

My parents in law _told_ me to go see a therapist. They borderline told my husband not to take me back after took a break until I saw a therapist. True or not it was still hurtful and made me not trust them. It made me feel like a leper or something. I wish they could’ve been more supportive and understanding and encouraged me to get help rather than pressuring. There is so much shame and embarrassment that comes with the depression.

Love the accessories and the striped billowy shirt. I'm assuming this is no longer sold but I can probably find similar. Are you about 5'3?

Still in undergrad, Love that youre sharing this.

Of all my psychology classes, life experiences, and unsolicited advice received this video is, by far, the very best. Thank you. I will save this video for referral.

I posted a grad school vlog because you inspired me!🧡

Thank you for posting about your experience and having compassion for yourself, it's very refreshing to see someone who has a similar career path to me as a therapist talking about their own experience of processing being a human <3

Nooo!! The Sailor Moon figure was needed!!! 😂😭 I’m jealous 😂

SUPER HELPFUL! Thank you so much!

Thank you, this really helped

I'm applying this fall and your videos have been a great help!! I'm an undergrad right now but I'm applying to both master's and phd programs!!

I'm 😭🥺❤8:22 I got so soft hearted hearing this. I know how jaded one can feel being vulnerable romantically after a terrible experience, but I'm so proud of your growth academically and mentally <3

I really hope u the best, u deserve the best🤍

🥰🥰🥰

I have been feeling stuck in my life and i dont know how to get out of it. I also feel so alone. I feel like i am going through hard times alone. I wish i had a good friends or a partner to rely on. 😢 Anyways always love hearing you share so openly and vulnerably about what youre going through. Love your videos! ❤

My summer was eventful! I went on a solo trip to NYC and now I’m starting my MSW program. Super excited. Hope all is well with you ✌️

This video came at the right time💜 I’ve been going through a lot. My dream of becoming a therapist is slipping away because I can no longer afford school, I’m drawing a wedge between my best friend and I because we’re both in love with each other but I cannot commit and I just moved to a new city. Everything is so scary and uncertain right now. But your videos help bring some positivity into my life. Thank you 💜

hi yeonni!! 💗 love your videos 🥺💕💕

I am so glad I found your page because I have been looking for youtube videos to give me encouragement in regards to applying to phd programs and every single video is so negative and pessimistic and you are so positive about it. You express the reality of things while also relaying the positives and you genuinely seem happy to be doing your phd despite how rigorous it is. This is so inspiring to me and helps me know that I really do wanna get my phd.

I’m so happy there are people like you in this world 😭💕

Your video is NOT too long.

10:48 Good point. I think I’d like to teach and research academically with PhD, but there’s also that side that tells me it’s society’s option forward in my career and not mine. I crawled out of my M.Ed and not sure if I can or want to make it through a doctorate. Also, coming from a low-income background, I want to make the most out of my achievements, but no longer at the cost of my mental stability and actually enjoying life.

My gosh that vanity is gorgeous. It reminds me of my halmoni’s vanity in Korea. ❤

This video was very helpful for me. I just started dating a woman in the last month and the past week she's been struggling very deeply with depression and I wasn't sure how to help her. I've taken notes from your video and will do them all. Thank you so much!

Crazy that you have to do a degree, it must put so many people off, should be a long training course but not a degree

How did you describe that difference in the theoretical backgrounds when you explained your reasons for changing? I also want to transition from social work to psychology and realize I want to do similar work of helping people at the end of the day, but when I think about the why, my words are kids of graceless and it sounds critical of SW: I am more interested in psychology and science now than I was when I wanted to be a social worker, I am less interested in broad, systems-based approaches to interventions with individuals and families and more interested in specific, psychology-based therapeutic orientations and *how and why they work*; more interested in academics and theory, including the potential for research. Do you think this is an acceptable way to word this? Is there a better way to explain?
