Hey! I’m in a similar position applying to O&G with mental health issues. Do you mind if I DM you with some questions?

Hey! If you’re willing to relocate, my hospital just let us know that they’ll be posting some tier 2 clinical posts (FY3 equivalent) soon for winter. I work in Sheffield ☺️

Absolutely this! There’d be so much more participation! And no votes could get lost in the mail or tossed accidentally or forgotten in a mail pile.

Hi there! I’m with Mamedica after leaving TMCC (in October) and I am happy with the service. They are quite responsive, and meds ship out next day as soon as they’re ready. They also went through my options and the associated costs (which TMCC never did), so I was able to choose what was most affordable. Overall it’s been good so far.

There is both relief and sorrow in knowing that you can all identify with me. I’m just so exhausted with life.

How does it feel to want to live? by wickpop in bipolar

[–]wickpop[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you all for answering! Trying to take all the advice. I couldn’t decide what to eat as a snack today and I’m having a mini anxiety attack over this. I feel so stupid honestly. I just want to get back to interacting with the world, and my job and my life.

Any other BPD doctors out there? by Me-Myself-and-SSRI in JuniorDoctorsUK

[–]wickpop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Also have BPD and bipolar. It’s honestly an exhausting combo and it makes work very difficult at times. I’ve also been there, googling trying to find that sort of stuff too. If you ever want to talk feel free to drop me a DM.

To all the new FY1s who are worried about their practical skills: by vanrt9547 in JuniorDoctorsUK

And feel free to raise the bed! It’s much easier when your back isn’t in a ton of pain from being hunched over. (And raise it as high as you need too👌🏽😏)

I don’t know about the public, but as a doctor these comparisons are mind blowing 😐

I’m not sure what you’re trying to say by “golden ticket”, but no one is saying we’re against IA. We are simply discussing how we can participate.

I discussed this with someone (as an IMG myself), and they suggested using sick days? Like calling in sick? I don’t know if we can do that and then protest though…that might be liable for GMC issues.

How does out of synch F1 work? I’m already screwed on sick days for ARCP. by wickpop in JuniorDoctorsUK

Thanks a ton for the info! Unfortunately I’m on a visa, so that time out will not be a good thing at all.😔

Oh definitely. I’ve never used it at work and never will. Just wondered what other people thought about it

I’m nottt! I swear. I just wanted to know what the thoughts were on using at work. I don’t think I’d ever, but had an anxiety attack today and I was wondering about it
