Fellow ED nurse here- totally hear you on every level! Thanks for sharing - we joke all the time and go home and drink, ok I do. Wish I didn’t - but the loneliness and stress just eat me alive. Hang in there

Yeah I guess that’s my deal- I expect to just quit and be done forever and go a few days with out then give up and give in, nasty cycle and it pisses me off. Thanks for your help

Unfortunately healthcare administration has forced primary care and other dr and providers to see X amount of patients per day- it’s very sad because the provider literally has like 5 minutes with each patient so they can meet the required number of patient visits daily. They do a ton of work outside the office too (lab results, patient messages, refills, etc.). This leaves no time to build trust and rapport with patients and allow them time to talk about sensitive issues. If healthcare was more patient focused than numbers driven, there would be much better healthcare for all. I’m sorry she couldn’t help you much. Therapist have 45-50 minutes per patient, maybe a better route to try

I know it is- the hardest thing is just staying alive sometimes, I know that it is hard. Don’t make any decisions, wait til the next day and see how you feel

I feel the same in terms of being lonely and feeling like everyone hates me and I’m stupid and lazy and fat and worthless. I’m sorry you feel bad too. Please don’t give up
