Don't be a jerk. There are plenty.

Kudos to you for using your humanity in healing. Docs are humans treating other humans. Our being includes beliefs and spirituality. Its good for both the patient and provider when it can be engaged facing the reality of sickness and/or loss. Thanks for the transparency

And then he realizes it was his toothbrush and he was too overworked to realize it was his. Lol jk

I have noticed a lot of EM physicians I work with eat the uncrustables.

Yep. Superstition and spirituality is not mental illness, it’s human culture. Honestly, everyone should have to take an anthropology class in college.

Id honestly say thats more of an intellectual or language barrier, unless they dont have modern medicine where they're from I dont really think its a cultural difference.

Did you know atleast it was fun

If it wasn't for afterpay I wouldn't be able to get tires 🤷‍♂️

Time to move, especially before the kids get rooted. They’re more than likely going to want friends and activities (football, dance lessons, fishing, other outings, etc). Yes, I know it’s easier said than done, too.

Remove the cost of your insurances……now how are your finances?

Live within your means, not what your neighbors doing.

Man I really appreciate this advice bro❗️it’s going to help me a lot, I want to be able to enjoy what I’m studying but also not have to think I’m hindering my career

Welcome to Joe Biden's America

80 hours a week and you're living paycheck to paycheck? Maybe you should have kept your legs closed, then you'd have disposable income or money to put away in a savings account. As a doctor, you should be making plenty to survive on a good budget. Start making better life decisions

The only thing in women's minds is money, not but money.

How are we all accepting this new model of slavery? I just don’t understand

I recall when being a doctor or surgeon was like being a rock star, and their pay reflected that. What has happened to society, that the person who saves your life on a daily basis is worth no more than the person who makes your sandwiches 🤔

Whats this savings account thing people are talking about. 😂😂😂

I’m 55 and I don’t have a bank account, saving account, or retirement plan. Well that’s not exactly true, my retirement plan is that I’m going to die long before I get to retire. And no, I’m not joking.

Whiner.

I don't banks accept lint. I'm living my best life though. -951-

This is great info!

I love this ! You kept it real.

Could you send the link to these studies? I recently learnt that its C/I if someone who has one kidney (im in PA school btw)

Thank you so much for sharing this. So easy for those of us who don't know, to just not know😂The common, unexposed belief is that anyone with the title of "Doctor" has a bunch of money and big houses and kids in private schools and whatever apparently wrong thing we think. Not saying I am glad I am wrong, just that I didn't know how much you guys live like we people of lesser means, at least at some point. Thank you for this sacrifice just to help us when we likely will need it most.

Thank you for doing what you are doing and making the sacrifices you are making. I'm sure you have worked extremely hard and missed priceless moments with your family but if it were not for Doctors, I would not have my family and that is priceless to me. So, thank you and I hope you live your best life. One love

Yup. Welcome to the new normal. #Uniparty. #BoomersPolitics

Maybe if doctors unionize it would help. Isn’t there some sort of doctor lobbying group that could pressure the government to set up something to help doctors? Like mandatory rest periods.

Makes sense

LOL

Truth

I was going thur some stuff & my dr referred me to psych, who after a few hrs of letting me vent, said she would be surprised if i WASN'T feeling these emotions ❤

If I could give one piece of advice, it would be to listen to your patients when they come into the ER, and follow protocol, even if you personally don't believe something could be happening. My son was diagnosed with kidney disease at age 12. He would relapse often and his particular case was a strange one actually presented in medical publications. When he came to me one afternoon, I knew immediately he was having a stroke-we knew all of the symptoms. He was just 21, but we had dealt with this terrible disease for 9 years already. The nearest ER was just 2 minutes away and it was much quicker for me to take him than to call an ambulance. He walked inside the ER, I screamed he was having a stroke. I begged and pled for assistance. My son was screaming in pain, at one point saying "Mom, find something sharp and stab me-if im bleeding maybe they'll help faster!" This was not a busy ER, the waiting room was not overfilled with waiting patients-we were the only ones. They treated me like I was a hysterical mom who didn't know anything. Long story short, when they finally put a blood pressure cuff on him (which I kept begging them to do, at one point just asking for one myself and was denied) his blood pressure was 281/196. I held my son in my arms and watched my child stroke out. The fear and terror in his eyes as he held my hands like an anchor, will never leave my mind. The hospital ignored their own stroke protocol, because they didn't think a 21 year old would have a stroke. They ignored his medical records which they had full access to on their system. They ignored me as his caregiver, because I was being loud and insistent. You're going to run into all kinds of patients. But overdoing tests in the place of deciding you know what's best, could kill someone's child, or mother or father, etc. Ego can destroy families, and it's SO easy to become complacent, so easy to forget that you are being entrusted with actual human beings, not just numbers! As you start this journey of patient care, work hard every single day not to lose your sense of humanity. Not every case is life and death, but it absolutely could be. You may see a hundred patients in a day, but you are likely the only doctor that person is seeing. You hold the power of human life in your hands, you make decisions decisions to heed or ignore the pleas of a patient, or their Mother, you can save or destroy a family. Don't lose that knowledge as you become desensitized in your job ❤️‍🩹

God bless you. I wish more doctors cared about this. I’ve seen hospitalists literally roll their eyes and say “that’s a psych problem, not my problem”.

Sadly the medical industry has become just that an industry driven by money and greed...

You remind me of the Nurse who was on the Neuro ICU floor and my son's one on one. My son Jordan suffered a catastrophic stroke due to his kidney disease 2 months after he turned 21 in October of 2022. The stroke took out his entire brain stem, he was gone. We kept him on life support for 3 days so that he could be an organ donor, which from the time of 12 he wanted to be. He somehow knew that he wouldn't live a normal long life, he told me he wouldn't live to see 25, and he was right. But because of this, we had the really uncomfortable conversations about what he wanted. So we were able to know what he wanted. It's so important to have the uncomfortable and sad conversation with your family members so that you CAN be their mouthpiece in the worst of times..it has almost been 20 months, and my heart is still broken. But his caregivers that we had in the hospital he was Life Flighted to for those final 3 days, will hold a special place in my heart for as long as I live.

OMG, my husband and I literally just had this conversation yesterday! Dementia and Alzheimer's run in my family. Every single person has gotten it, currently I have an Aunt, Uncle and my Mom starting their journey all at the same time. I myself at 47 have already noticed my memory failing. My husband and I have been married for 30 years. He watched my Grandma's demise. He was warned and we joke all the time about what he's going to deal with. Yesterday I got sad and I said "I am realizing there's going to be a point where I don't know you or the kids anymore and I am so sad about that!!" And he said "Sweetie, YOU won't know that you don't remember." But it is hurting me now, knowing that that time will come. I am a writer and for the last few years he has been asking me to write our story, so that just like in The Notebook, he can read to me all about our life and our story. He and my kids say they will never put me in a care center (2 of my daughters work in memory care, and one in an ICU with brain injury), so I know that I'll be cared for and loved. But it hit me yesterday, that a time will come when I don't remember my loved ones 😭

Another issue that’s similar is that some doctors think normal ADHD symptoms in adults can be treated with antidepressants. It’s not depression! It’s ADHD.

AGREED most accurate video on the Internet

They dont do therapy because they don't want you well

They called psych for me cuz I was anxious about health symptoms I was dealing with lol

Its called justification for the psychologica position description ..or as in the VA system its used against the pt .

This is so important and this comes from a patient. In 5 years ive been known in the psykiatry system (I live in Denmark 🇩🇰 so I believe it is a bit different) and Ive got medicine all theese years and social workers knocking on by door all the time, which has made me feel worse because of overwatching. By keeping me in the belief I am mentally sick makes it difficult to change it, because it gets to feel like a unavoidable part of me. Too much 'help' is making everything worse and its a waste of money from the government anyway.

I understand what u are saying... I have been in situations where more than once a nurse has stayed with me due to my anxiety. Thank you ❤

Great idea! I agree! Force mental health help! Some will never ask for help...

I agree! One of the reasons I'm quitting teaching and going into therapy/ counseling

Thank you!! I hate seeing "situational depression" on "fill in the blank"...it personally took me so long to wean off of Lexapro. What an absolute nightmare.

It doesn’t help that a lot of providers are on the spectrum so you’re asking people who struggle with interpersonal communication to communicate.

Great point!! I pray that someone who can do something sees this!

That's possible... but, it's also possible the person ordering the consult doesn't know for who should help. But, a psych consult could identify the right person.
