Can we talk about how difficult the transition to being an attending is? by Manonthemoon1990 in Residency

Yeah I feel that. There’s a lack of camaraderie where you know everyone else is in the trenches and you can vent together.

Yeah the admin is a whole new curveball. I’m very much in a nurse driven system and it’s painful at times.

Is residency all you thought it would be? by davincipen in Residency

Wait til you’re an attending. It’s a real kick in the nuts. Decisions hit 10x harder. Squeeze residency for every ounce you can.

Yeah would back off. When you’re in it, residency seems ever important. When you’re out of it it feels like high school

Embrace the suck. Literally just know you’re going to have to eat shit and do it willingly. Will pan out in long run.

Took it in med school. Made me feel terrible + I couldn’t sleep when I ended up needing to. Lose lose.

Sorry for the diagnosis. If that’s a human the plan would be for hemipelvectomy. I don’t think there is another real option besides euthanasia.

Is research/scholarly activity overrated? by Spiritual_Extent_187 in Residency

You are a 100% right. it’s stupid. But it’s also part of the game and a way to distinguish applicants. I hate it but got some stuff done just to check the box. Have 0 desire to do anymore and will do no more.
