I am thrilled and also matched to my #1!
For those who did not match today, I KNOW YOUR PAIN 1000000%. I was in your shoes last year. I'm sure nothing that anyone can say can make the disappointment and pain go away. Keep your head up and know this system is flawed. Going through both phase I and II last year and still not matching, I have been reassured time and time again that I was/am a great applicant and no one ever thought less of me. It really helped to have so many people (supervisors, colleagues, friends, family) that provided that sense of confidence when I lacked it completely. I also met a few psychologists who are amazing and did not match their first year themselves.
I'm sure you're experiencing a lot of doubt, negative thoughts about yourself, anger, frustration, hurt, betrayal, etc. It's even harder when everyone else around you matched and is celebrating. I remember feeling like it was the end of the world, I was being selfish and having a hard time feeling truly happy for my friends, as well as disappointed that I was being "left behind." I'd say let yourself feel the range of emotions, they are completely valid and you deserve to feel that way. Utilize your social support, try to stay motivated, do something you enjoy and reward yourself! You did work hard and sadly, this sucky system doesn't acknowledge that. Take to heart that you are truly a great candidate. And if the worst still happens and no match in phase II or you choose not to do phase II, know that this really can be a positive, extra year. You will survive and can thrive. I spent this "bonus" year to get my first publication, make more progress on my dissertation, and gain more clinical experience that really boosted my confidence when I went on this round of interviews. I also made new friendships and mentorships with my new practicum and got more time with family. Even though not matching is a very sad outcome, I can happily say that in the end, everything worked out the way it needed to. Best wishes to all!
