#burnt out
People who enjoy your jobs, tell me what you do and why you love it
Anyone else in health care being gaslit by the government, society, and their institution into feeling survivor’s guilt because even if things are crappy for you, they’re crappier for somebody else?
Really feeling for my primary care/family medicine, critical care, emergency/urgent/acute care, and mental health colleagues at the moment. This pandemic has been going on way too long, and no one seems to care about the fact that even when things were reopening, you were all still being worked into the ground (and through the crust of the earth into its molten core) by all the ripple effects of this pandemic uncovering the systemic inequities and BS that was just lurking in the shadows before 2019… All the stuff that health care workers, in general, managed to barely keep at bay from their sense of altruism and dedication (now obligation?) to their patients. If I’ve learned anything from COVID-19, it is that everyone will do their best to take advantage of you, and short of doing your job well, you actually don’t owe them anything.
You really do gotta take care of you first, otherwise this system will beat you down to nothing before you even realize it. “Resilience” is great and all, but it’s really just the system shifting all responsibility for surviving its BS onto its victims.
This system has been sick for a very, very long time. It’s gonna need a lot more than a bandaid and some yoga to rehabilitate it.
Starting to think the B in LGBTQ stands for burnt out
Sorry for not posting this weekend….
I’ve been working from 5 and 6am and I’m fucking exhausted and I’ve been doing college work in an attempt to get ready for when I go back on Wednesday lmao everything is falling apart.
But another reason is because I was due to write a part two to ‘the end’ but I couldn’t bring myself to do it. Looking back I think it is so poorly written and I wouldn’t even know where to start for a part two. I know people have sent their ideas in and I highly appreciate them and love them but actually writing it?? I don’t know I might change my mind in the future or even re write it all together but right now there will be no part two and I’ll continue with requests as usual.
Sorry to let anyone down, sending all my love as usual- Megan ❤️
I hate how I am so indecisive about everything. But everytime I make a decision I love it for then and there. I love every decision I make before ruining it with so much hate in my whole body.
My first year
The next couple …
Now
I’m so tired.
I am so fucking tired of shouting and begging for the most basic decencies but I know if I stop I will feel even worse
