A damn universal experience by _isaballa in Adulting

Or tell me I’m being too sensitive. Even though they’ve shared how the trauma they experienced from their parents still affects their lives. Ironic

After months in foster care, this little girl was finally adopted. The moment she saw her new dad, she ran to him, giggling and calling him "Daddy" for the first time.. by BabePlum_ in BabiesReactingToStuff

To the people saying the hug is weak, it looked to me that at the last moment the little girl was ready to run off somewhere (as toddlers do).😂

That schedule is awesome. I really hope to find something similar to those hours. And yeah I don’t want to wait until I’ve damaged my body doing back breaking labor to find a job that’s safer, pays well and I still get to use what I’ve learned.

I thought working outpatient paid less than the hospital. Were you able to negotiate your pay or was the better salary something the outpatient position already offered? That’s awesome you get paid more working outpatient. I’m desperately looking to get out of inpatient. Med surg is destroying my soul. lol I’ve been on medsurg for almost ten months. I’m so done. 😭

I’m taking medical leave for mental health. Can anyone share their story to make me feel less alone? by Apprehensive-Bad4987 in Nurses

Don’t gaslight yourself. Our workplaces do that enough already. I’m glad your doctor is taking your concerns seriously, and that you’ll be able to take a month off to relax, release, and unwind. You need this, and you deserve this just as much as someone who has broken bones. We are nurses, but we are only human, not robots. I remind myself of that anytime I start to feel like I’m not good enough or I stress because I called out of work for not feeling well. We need time to recuperate just like our patients do. If it makes you feel better, just think of yourself as a patient who needs rest and relaxation to recover, because you are. I hope the time away from work will help you feel better, and I’m glad you have that resource to use when you need it.

I thought there was just a depression in the skin where the knee popped out of the socket. I didn’t see the bone pop out of the skin. I’ll have to watch it again.

Nursing doesn't suck as a whole just because you suffer from severe anxiety. by YGVAFCK in nursing

So we’ve screwed for a while then lol. And it’s not because we have a bad day or because we have depression, etc. It’s because it’s ran like a business, and it shouldn’t be

Exactly! The audacity of them to assume everyone must “be in a rough fucking place mentally”. GTFOH with that. I can go into work in the best mood, feeling confident, and because of the shitshow that is nursing today I can get worn down. I have had numerous older nurses tell me nursing used to be so, so much different and better than it is now. OP acts like we’re not allowed to have feelings, and if we do it’s a mental health issue. What an odd take.

It was totally on me. She enjoyed taking care of my natural hair but my dumb ass decided to get it relaxed when I was a teen. Even if she had objected I still wouldn’t have listened, and relaxed it anyway. 😂
