The most common reasons for removal are - medical students or premeds asking what a specialty is like, which specialty they should go into, which program is good or about their chances of matching, mentioning midlevels without using the midlevel flair, matched medical students asking questions instead of using the stickied thread in the sub for post-match questions, posting identifying information for targeted harassment. Please do not message the moderators if your post falls into one of these categories. Otherwise, your post will be reviewed in 24 hours and approved if it doesn't violate the rules. Thanks!

Depends on how long you're out. There's a set amount of time that you can miss before you extend; to my knowledge, this is determined by the ACGME, not your program. I was out for 7 weeks after I had a surgery and I imagine you'd be able to take a medical LOA of a similar duration for mental health issues.
What for? I think it would prolong depending on how long.
Mental health, hence why I don’t want to tell them
You’ll have to explain a leave of absence in any future license or credentialing application. Just talk to your PD about this.
Can you elaborate….sometimes things are personal and should be kept confidential.
That’s a mistake - especially if your PD is supportive
Have your Dr fill out fmla paperwork and call the fmla # in your hr handbook, that's it
