I dunno how or why this has shown up on my feed but I completely get this. I have reached the end of my training and this all resonates.

Thank you for sharing, it's always a good thing to step back and smell the rose's, I can relate, I was working 12-14 hours a day 14 days straight with only 3 days off but my longest shift was 23 hours during a fatal accident that I attended, after 6 years I was soo burnt out that I had an accident at work and was almost killed, a car went through a red light and drove over the top of me, I have been off work for the past 3 months but will be well enough to go back to my duties on the 18th of October, I really don't want to return, I'm done but I must give them 1 more year and then I'm retiring early and moving overseas to pursue other opportunities. Your good with people and in a hospital patients are afraid and scared, they need that contact and reassurance. I know I did. What did you do before you got in to medicine? You said you like to read, have you ever considered writing a novel? You are doing an important occupation always focus on the best things you like /love about it. Thank you for the content and thank you for sharing.
