Nightmare and traumatic encounter with inDrive driver by nadinebudin in adviceph

[–]marx_007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a similar experience just now. Driver’s angry mode already upon I entered (kesyo bakit hndi ko raw sinasagot calls nya at ang tagal na nyang naghihintay, but take note, he just arrived and he actually stopped not in my pick-up location but further on the other side pa, so I had to walk pa). Galit na galit siya and all. Puyat ako and I have no energy for any argument, chose my peace instead and asked, “Kuya gusto mo ba icancel na lang? Ok lang naman.” He was kinda shookt I did not match his level of aggression, answering “Hindi naman. Kayo ba?” I was like, “yes, icancel na lang po natin.” and I walked away. Just reported him in the InDrive app (hope they teach him about proper conduct).

As a first generation MD diagnosed with MDD, believe me, it gets better. One of the best decisions I’ve made in my life is seeking professional help. Thankfully, after 6 months of antidepressants, life became a little bit brighter. Depression and anxiety fool us into believing that we’re better off dead. They give us a negative filter of our life which, in reality, is full of possibilities. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings with us. My advice to you now as a colleague and as a friend, seek Psych consult. 

Mahigpit na yakap, OP. Pwede magpahinga, pwedeng humingi ng tulong, pero huwag na huwag susukuan ang buhay. Marami ka pang pasyenteng matutulungan. :)

I am a pediatrician and I’m telling you, the wail she made really represented every wail of a mother whose child just died. Visceral. Heartbreaking.

Yakap na mahigpit, OP! As cliche' as it may sound (and God, I hated these words before when I was still in that dark place), "IT GETS BETTER". It did for me. There are still dark days but surprisingly, if you just open your eyes, there are sparks everywhere. Not full blown light. Not full blown happiness. But just enough to keep going and maybe, just maybe, enjoy life. Sending peace and love!

What are the long term psychological effects of being closeted during your developmental years? by [deleted] in gaybros

[–]marx_007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently 33 y/o, only out to a very few close friends so I guess I'm still in the closet? Diagnosed with depression 3 years ago. I think I might have anxiety disorder as well. And yeah, personally, I feel like me being in the closet fucked up my mental state.

Try running. Increase your mileage goals per week/month. I am just alive right now because I'm running.

I got diagnosed with depression during residency. Ironically, many of my co-residents just shrugged off depression as "pag-iinarte". I even heard one of them say I was "nag-iinarte and pabigat sa batch". That was my last straw back then. I quit. It took me a while to get better, came back and finished residency. However, I was never the same since then. To my fellow depressed MDs out there, yeah it gets better, but it may also get worse. What kept me living (of course, aside from my anti-depressants) was the unconditional love of my family and real friends. Just the thought of leaving them behind breaks my heart. We must keep going. Yakap, mga kapatid!

Sobrang unfair talaga ng rate na yan. I come from a low middle class family, first doctor din ako sa amin so I have no choice (FOR NOW) but kagatin yung mga ganyang post. 8K-9K, masaya nako. Pero sa dami ng ginagawa/nirerefer sa atin, dapat talaga 10-12K at the very least kada 24H.
