You don't need to feel guilty that you are privileged to be studying medicine and that this cannot still exhaust you. It's totally OK and normal to feel overwhelmed and to take 1 or more days off. It's OK to get rest, to have some peace and quiet. People these days feel they need to be productive all day long. You can still achieve great things while taking it slow and following what your body and mind need.
Hey Sab, as a junior doctor, 2 years out of med school. Please don’t ever feel bad for taking rest days. It is so so important for your long term health. Looking after yourself is the best way to look after your patients! I love watching med school vlogs cause nostalgia aha, but good luck & sending love. ❤
thank you so much for showing a more vulnerable moment in your medicine journey, as someone going into medical school it’s so reassuring that feeling overwhelmed is normal and that you don’t have to be a total machine. It’s clear how hard you work :) amazing video and amazing channel 🫶🏻
I'm glad you took time for yourself and recognized your needs and put yourself first ❤️ you give so much support to all of us viewers and I'm sure I speak for others that we support you & root for you always too!
thank you for being so vulnerable with us about how you were feeling. it is a privilege but not something to feel guilty about! it's very evident that you are grateful to be where you are, but that doesn't mean you can't have bad day or need rest. we live in such a hustle culture where we think having a day off is unacceptable, but considering school and balancing your work life, you are doing such a great job! i love your vlogs because of how raw and genuine you are. im about to be a senior in undergrad for psych and im excited to see what grad school will be like! can't wait to see the next video!
Truly loving my Yesoul exercise bike! It sure makes home workouts a breeze, plus the classes are super fun, keeping me pumped up. Definitely a must-recommend for folks aiming to boost their wellbeing!
Thank you so much for saying "so much of medicine is forcing yourself to be comfortable in novel situations". I'm a pre-PA student and as an anxious person, I've been feeling that SO much. I'm trying to push myself to do the scary things and it's a nice reminder that I'm not the only one! 😅
The YESOUL spin bike has totally leveled up my home gym game! Super stoked about mirroring my fave fitness app and jamming through all kinds of classes. Keeps my sweat sessions super fresh and fun, major gains spotted!
3:52. What you said is so true.. I remember when I was in the ER for a very high fever, they had to do a spinal tap on me to rule out meningitis. They had this med student do one on me, it was her first time and she was sooo scared. As a very sick patient, I told her she will do fine and I trusted her. Nevertheless it went fine and the attending told her she did the spinal tap perfectly. Of course I made it out unscathed! lol 😅
THE WAY I WAS AT THE REFERENCE LIBRARY 2 DAYS AFTER YOU WENT 😭 ALSO HAVE MY LAST EXAM EVER FOR UNDERGRAD TOMORROW BUT I'VE BEEN FEELING SO UNMOTIVATED AND THEN THIS DROPS. YOU AND YOUR IMPECCABLE (AND SCARY) TIMING FIIIIINE I'LL GET MY ASS TO WORK I GUESS
also the mascara and the eyeliner that stayed crispy and sharp for god knows how many hours without any smudging??????? DROP THE PRODUCTS I NEED ME SOME OF THAT
I really really like you! I like your authenticity! I'm a physical therapy student from Taiwan, just wanted to say hi to you. I'm very happy to have your videos accompany me as I prepare for my licensing exam.
what a small world, I used to work at that hospital as a social worker 🤯 there are some incredible physicians and staff there and I hope you're enjoying your time there :) im super inspired that you keep showing up with creating quality videos despite having a ridiculously busy schedule as a med student (and still somehow find time to run 10ks???) i hope you're taking care of yourself through it all! rooting for you girl 👏💞
The way I feel so happy...to see that Ohh yaay Sab posted.... Motivation boosted and my dearest inspiration is back!!! Way to go Doctor you e got this...❤❤❤🎉
Hi Sab.. I never comment but I just felt I needed to commend you for being you. I’m not one to enjoy vlogs but your content is very captivating to me and I just like you 😂❤(feels like we are friends ). May the good Lord continue to give you the strength as you go through medical school and life as a whole. I’m praying for you. ❤
Can you share your journey and how you got into medical school? Currently going into nursing school but I think eventually I will want to become a doctor but also still on the fence. Love your videos ❤
omg sab!!!I can't believe you uploaded a New Video. I am having a Public Exam this weeks and I'm so stressed out and have no motivation.🥲 But your study Vlog motivated me a lottt. I have already watched all your Exam Vlog and wishing you can upload moree hahhhhh.. CUZ YOU ARE MY STUDY MOTIVATION. And now i am preparing my next exam and I am sooo happy to see you are are uploading a new one. Pls keep Upload more hehee💓🥺
oh I am so so sorry to hear that love :( sending my thoughts and well wishes your way during this very hard time, please take care of yourself as much as you can!
Sab can you make what i eat on a week video im also a medical student living alone and sometimes i dont know how to balance my mesls and what to eat 😭😭🙏🙏
omg this is such a great vlog 🥹❤ thank you for being vulnerable with us, cause I honestly feel the same way. Being able to step back when needed is such a good reminder that rest is just as important as work. I tend to forget to forget about that. Hope this week and the rest of ur weeks work in ur favor! Even if it doesn't, then im sure ur able to push through it :) !
You're one of the reasons why I've improved in my veterinary medicine journey. Thank you for giving me a Notion template, an iPad template, and heap tons of motivation, Sab! We got this!! 🩺
as someone studying to be a health care worker, i'd wear a high quality respirator in any common or public spaces. otherwise it can send the message that you don't care for public health / yourself / your loved ones / your future patients, which doesn't look good 😬
As a biology professor, there's a crap ton of content that biology students, especially medical students, have to very rapidly ingest. This is exacerbated by the lecture, and the presentation format of the instructor/doctor. The brief clip at 10:45 was very painful for me to watch; the slide was all words, no diagrams or pictures (not even the doc's face), terrible slide color (very distracting) and font choice, and difficult to follow. The doc's voice sounded pleasant, but I'm sure hours of that would put even experts to sleep. I really hope not all your lectures are this format, and if so, don't blame yourself when information doesn't stick, or for falling asleep while watching the videos lol! Education shouldn't be this way, especially when you're paying around $200k+. Keep it up, you're doing great!
Guilt does nothing to help the underprivileged. If you really feel guilty, then do something in life that helps them. Otherwise, it's just pity points.
