That's a good clip, well worth the very short time needed to watch it.

Yep, that is exactly how it is in the US as well. Each Individual may vary, but the general thrust of their education is as you said, psychiatrists are generally med focused (technically they complete med school and then specialize in psych) and psychologist completes grad school (PhD. or PsyD.) with the focus on psych and learns a bit about meds (since they are likely a big part of the picture for some patients). Psychologist generally can't prescribe meds (though there are some contexts where they can) and psychiatrists often don't do therapy (though again exceptions exist). BOTH can and do give official diagnoses, though many healthcare systems are set up with psychologists (or other mental health providers LMFT, LCSW, Etc.) seeing and diagnosing first, with psychiatrists reviewing diagnoses only if prescribing meds.

Another poster mentioned needing a psychiatrist for official diagnoses, and that is false in the US.

Yeah it's a shame because there was a time that Toms hardware was so good and often neck and neck with Anandtech in terms of great articles to read, but at some point it became more sensationalist and the line betweens tom's guide and tom's hardware blurred (with tom's guide seeming to take over). There are still nuggets that are okay, but just not like it used to be.

May want to read you own article before posting it....from the article at 11:35, a few minutes after the gunman entered the school....

" Three Uvalde police officers rush to the same door that the gunman used to enter, which was closed. Surveillance footage shows the officers all have pistols, and two of them have rifles. One officer has external armor, and two are wearing concealable armor."

They had armor, pistols and 2/3 had rifles.

This is a tragedy any way you slice it. There is so much gun reform that needs to happen, and police did not handle things well here. People with guns are hard situations to handle, but police handled a bad situation on a way that made it worse.

They are going to be more similar than different really. Both lean heavily on the B part of the name (applied Behavioral analysis, and cognitive Behavioral therapy), and at their core are learning new skills or behaviors that more effectively navigate the world (one not inherently designed around an autistic experience of the world(as if there was just one)). They are both about making behavior changes that lead to being more comfortable long term, and that usually revolves around practicing behaviors (often pretty frequently, which can be uncomfortable short term).

I'll add on as someone that works with trans folks preparing for hormones/surgery, FFS is usually less common compared to other procedures, and is itself a cluster of surgeries that people may choose to do any combination of. Some of those surgeries are less drastic some are pretty intense (graphic warning: basically peeling back a portion of your face from your skull, changing bone and slapping that face back on). The more intense options are understandably not for everyone. FFS (and most other surgeries) usually comes into play after people give hormones a few years to do their thing and see where things end up. Let the canvas stabilize before working on it.
