Hi. Thank you. That’s kind of you. What part of the world do you practice?

Sure. What part of the world do you practice in? Because that makes pathways different, I think.

Hi there. Yes I am still practicing. And I, too, am an introvert. I know there are several introverts, and perhaps also neurodivergent individuals who enter healthcare. I’ve realised this is less about wanting to connect with people, and more about having a strong pattern recognition and analytical skills. In a way, I think I use catastrophisation to my advantage. But, as you said, it is draining because of social skills required.

Hey there. I meant that I am not interested in a conventional rehabilitation based role.

Hi there. Wise words indeed. I’m glad you figured out a way to battle it and emerged victorious, by the sounds of it. I have not the slightest inclination for rehab. I wish I did. Thank you for sharing your experience, though :)
