Question: A few questions about becoming a Psychiatrist?
I have a few questions, please answer what ever ones you can. Thank you:)
1) If I have/had anorexia and bipolar disorder, can I still work as a Psychiatrist?
2) Can I work at a hospital as a Psychiatrist? Generally, what would I do?
3) how long would university be and what courses should I take in high school and university?
4) In university is there a lot of chemistry and biology in the courses or is it a lot of theory?
5)What is the average canadian or american salary for a Psychiatrist?
6) Is it a stressful career?
7) can you go "up" or "higher" in the job, with experience?
8) If I took bioligy and chemestry in every year of highschool, is that all the science I need in order to get into university to be a Psychiatrist?
Most important: 9) What type of things would a Psychiatrist do?
Thanks again:)
