everyone says medical school is “like a marathon, not a sprint” but it feels like a sprinting marathon 99% of the time

med school is weird because even though im on a much-needed break, i feel like i should be doing something productive instead of feeling guilty that instead im binging netflix shows and avoiding any responsibilities for the next two weeks

how do you overcome the immense feeling of loneliness and isolation in med school or is this just factored into the tuition

so today in anatomy, my professor put up a slide that said “for optimal health, females should have 3-5 orgasms before penetration” and the number of guys that looked genuinely shocked in class KILLED me. guys, y’all better get to work

my favorite person in the hospital is the person who works at the registration desk and says “good morning, I hope you have a great day sweetie” every morning i see her

m3 is when all the fascia you ignored in anatomy during m1/m2 comes back full force when every single attending asks you what the fascia they’re cutting through is

m3 has taught me that if you don’t know what’s wrong with the patient, throw sarcoidosis on the differential and it’s never a bad thought

also please remove “when all this is over” from your everyday speech. for millions of people: lgbtq+, women, people of color, undocumented folk, there is no “when this is over.” everyday is a volatile battle w/ republicans who are constantly trying to take away our rights

one thing that just really frustrates me is that i get so beyond excited when our curriculum gives us lectures on racism, gender inequality, and social determinants of health, and it’s sad and just really upsetting that people treat them as burdensome & not important

spent the day at Planned Parenthood as a part of my ob/gyn rotation and honestly it was such an incredibly affirming experience of women’s reproductive rights, while also wildly frustrating to learn about the federal/state laws that restrict women’s right to bodily autonomy

is it a problem if all of my responses to “why our program?” during interviews is because there is a Trader Joe’s within a 15 mile radius of the hospital?

i might not know what’s going on 99% of the time during m3 year but i’m really great at self deprecating humor and saying bad jokes on rounds and i like to think that improves the vibe a little bit and counts for something!

i feel like it goes without saying but you should care about medical racism, gender inequity, and social determinants of health because it viscerally and inextricably affects your patients

what’s disgusting is that low income people get bullied and are socially ostracized for having old and worn out shoes/clothing, but heres gucci selling this shit for $900
capitalism is fucking gross and exploitative and i hate it
Gucci’s new sneaker, The Screener, is meant to look old and worn. And can be yours for $870.
