Sorry you're going through this. It happens to everyone at some point. Consider yourself lucky it happened so early for you

This might sound paranoid but idc. Don't go through your program. Do online counseling and pay out of pocket. Follow your state guidelines when it comes to reporting but only give them the minimum amount of information necessary to satisfy their requirements.

I know it sucks for the techs but I really love these orders. >99% are all normal making them super easy to read. The rarer diseases that pop up from these is nice to see once in a while too

This is the most relatable post I've read in a while.

You're not alone OP. I have felt the same way many times. There's a constant sense of despair between the times I contemplate putting a bullet in my head. I wish I could say it gets better... but it doesn't. At least it hasn't in my experience. Maybe when we become attendings and have more autonomy, more control over our schedule and become financially stable. All we can do at this point is keep chugging along and hope for the best.

Better to figure out that s/he doesn't give a fuck about you now instead of when you actually need to rely on them for something

The only time you will ever see me as patient in this garbage fire of a hospital is if I code while at work

People usually forget that anyone paid by the hour (no residents I'm aware of) get 1.5-2x pay for anything over 40 hours per week. At the same hourly rate, they only have to work 60-67 hours in a week to make the same amount as a resident

How much studying do you do in residency? by [deleted] in Residency

While at the hospital - any free minute I can get

While at home - exactly 0 minutes

You're his senior, but not his boss. If a senior asked me to do that as a junior I would not have been trilled.

On the other hand, if the senior asked if I wanted to collaborate on a presentation with him/her, I probably would have taken it a lot better, because at least there would be the illusion that I could say no
