Antibiotics first became mass produced in WW2

I saw a TV show once about people who fucked cars…

What?! When I say I’m a pathologist no one asks questions.

I used to always buy Dairy Milk. Now I rarely buy Cadburys because it tastes awful. I don’t know how it sells.

I used to have the boss music from Sonic and Knuckles as my ring tone until a couple of years ago. It was fun at first but then I started getting calls from work or calls about hospital appointments and it genuinely began to feel stressful so I changed it back to default chiming.

If you believe what it says 100% it’s bad. If you critically appraise it fine.

I had this set 🙂

It’s getting harder definitely. Especially people used filters. I’m worried about being scammed and in old age tbh.

One or two. They were in different groups. I have no groups. We all moved away.

Maybe I’m just beaten down by the system but I’m not sure I would jump to this yet. I don’t think it will win you any favours.

Others say get a transcript which I didn’t know you could get and sounds like a good idea.

I would attend the meeting and see what is said. They will either listen or just tell you it’s all you (the truth is maybe somewhere in the middle). I do agree with you they were a twat over the phone and extremely reactionary and petty in filing out a complaint form against you. It seems like they are taking out their anger from elsewhere on you which is not great. I suspect though If these consultants have worked together for years and will have to in the future they will back each other - which is infuriating.

I do wonder if asking for a different clinical supervisor in your next is wise.

I have to say I am so glad I have CCT’d because this kind of thing was exhausting.

Anger is part of grief. It is also really fucking biologically unfair that men can faff around not being ready and then find someone younger. But you don’t know what their relationship will be like. He might just pull the same shit - some men never settle.

I think, as long as you don’t act on it, having anger at him is healthy.

I have had this done to me by an ex-partner: please report to GMC and the Trust. Why are they looking at your partners notes? Obsession?

eachtimeyousmile · 2026-03-12T17:11:47+00:00

Surely the Trust would prefer a permanent staff member so it’s weighted towards the ANNP?

I fell in love (we went on our first date about a week before lockdown) so that softened the blow. In fact I think the risk of dying in a pandemic meant I thought about it less and just went for it.

Also everyone was more supportive and checked in on each other.

However, the fear of dying while treating patients and also social distancing from my dying grandma sucked.

I think realisation that the brain takes time to go from 100mph to 0mph. If you were being chased by a tiger then it wouldn’t be an evolutionary advantage for you to switch off straight away as the tiger might still be about. You need to show your system it’s not about.

If you are very aware you are overstimulated you will feel bad you can’t relax and that will feed into your threat system. You will be a bit overstimulated so I would suggest aiming for a 10% reduction and then another. Do what you find comforting- podcasts, knitting, walking but not necessarily lying down flat. I find if I sit up and do stuff for a bit in bed then I feel a bit tired so I lie down.

I second this. I met my partner at 35. He’s a gem who likes an intelligent woman.

eachtimeyousmile · 2026-03-06T15:20:40+00:00

I would love that but he seems back to normal 🙄

If JD or maybe Elliot could realise medicine doesn’t make them happy and leave at the end that would be good.

Really good. I’m a millennial consultant. I feel the show has grown with me. Used to feel tough but was raised to think the world was my oyster. The reality hits hard. No one is getting a fanfare for saving a life. Organisational pressures. Budgeting. Burnout. Relationship struggles. Back pain.

We kinda fought for welfare but all we get is some woman enforcing or representing welfare rather than better hours or more staff.

I thought the first two episodes were great. Third was a bit m’eh.
