Sorry y’all! This comic is DENSE. Zoom in pls
On NYE, I told you all that residency was terrible. And I’m not walking it back. It is truly a miserable, tiring experience. It is not for the faint of heart. I wage a daily battle to maintain my compassion in the face of challenging patient interactions, a staggering sleep debt, trauma, and frustration.
But I also recognize how incredibly lucky I am to be where I am right now. And thus, I’ve tried to make sure that I practice gratitude along with my griping. Hence, the perspective scale!
What about your current circumstances are you thankful for, and what do you wish could be better?
