In my early 20s, I experienced a #depression so dark I thought the light was gone forever. I got help & am thriving now. If you've been/are there, I understand. You're not alone in the darkness.

What if we changed “chief complaint” to “highest priority concern”?
Patients aren’t just “complaining.” They are seeking help for a concern.
Anyone else wonder how changing one phrase found in every piece of medical documentation might fundamentally change how we view people?

One of my patients made me cry in clinic. In a good way. What she said to me applies to all of us in medicine. Even when it doesn’t feel like it, we are seen. We are appreciated.

Daughter’s newest “new-to-her” Barbie. “Look mom! She’s wearing scrubs and looks like you so she must be a doctor, just like you!” Reminder that children notice things. Representation matters.

“You’re struggling because you’re in the wrong plane.”
Turns out teaching surgical skills is very similar to cooking with a child. Main difference - child may yell at you for being too bossy; residents rarely do 😂

While I am a fan of Zoom lectures b/c I feel they increase accessibility, I do miss seeing people's reactions to the material. And by material, I mean jokes. I have no way of knowing if the fart jokes are resonating.
My dad is a small town cardiologist. Practice closing after 40+ yrs. I asked hometown FB group to post stories of his impact so I could make a book for him. Holy. Moly. I'm not crying, you're crying. Pls send your favorite quotes/poems/etc to include. #MedTwitter

I started a palliative rotation today, and it seems I’ve found where they keep all the best people in the hospital.
My attending also directed me to this poet and beautiful poem as my assignment for the day.

Do you know an obscure word used to describe specific feelings or circumstances?
People who are good at being specific about identifying and labeling their emotions are less likely to binge drink, be physically aggressive, or self-injure when distressed.
When you’re call week was so amazing that your wellness biometric app is concerned and sending you soothing messages 😂

One of my mentees called me today to tell me he got into my med school with a full ride.
It reminded me of what one of my mentors once told me, “The only way you can repay me is by doing the same for someone else and becoming my colleague one day.” What a GREAT feeling.
