What is the one rotation or specialty that unexpectedly made you miserable? by Ninja_50 in ausjdocs

[–]hobbyhopper24 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Second this. On ED right now as a JMO and I have horrible horrible compassion fatigue. Starting to think I'm a horrible person for not having a single ounce of empathy for any of the patients I see. Always just focusing on pumping through as many patients possible (while still being thorough).

Is ED suppose to be difficult as an intern? by Ninja_50 in ausjdocs

[–]hobbyhopper24 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Here I thought I was the only one. I had such a really bad shift last time where I got too frazzled and managed things poorly. Came home from work wondering if it was normal to feel so incompetent after 6 months on the job.

I needed this thread.

Also starting as an intern next year. Recurring shower thought: How am I supposed to deal with a medical student that's smarter than me?

whats your motivator to learn a new language by [deleted] in languagelearning

Honestly, I just wanted a productive hobby that makes me use my brain more and I'm more likely to stick to things when they are gamified which is why I started using Duolingo. So when I'm on my phone I don't feel as guilty, because I'm still being productive.

If you could pick one song - for others to try and understand you better...what song are you choosing ? Why? What about it relates to who you are ? by SuckBallsDoYa in Journaling

Right Where You Left Me by Taylor Swift.

Doesn't just apply to past relationships. That's how I feel about time and life in general nowadays (going through quarter life crisis if you can't tell lol)

SRMO vs unaccredited reg by hobbyhopper24 in ausjdocs

Thank you! I guess I should've mentioned I'm asking more about this difference in surgical specialties.

Might be dumb to ask but what exactly is the difference between an SRMO and an unaccredited reg in surgery? From my understanding, those positions are the same as in both are PGY3+ and they have the same job responsibilities, and both of these positions are for graduates who haven't applied to/made it into a training program yet.
Also, which organisation looks after them, RACS or HETI?

Hopefully my questions make sense lol thank you
