I did my ST4 interview today without realising that a framed print of a meme was visible behind me. Unsure if I hope that the consultants didn’t recognise said meme, or hope that they did and it helps my vibe ?

Considering taking this material to wear when I’m on-call down in ED and see if it at all reduces the frequency/intensity of people shouting at me

Final job rotation left of core training (!) and feeling very spoiled by a wonderful neuropsychiatry team and experience for the past 6 months. There’s a lot that I love about psychiatry training, but feeling valued and really truly having “training” in every job is always a highlight ✨✨

The first Christmas in 11 years that I’m not studying for med school/post grad exams, working, or in the pit of a pandemic misery. What a different and wonderful version of a holiday this is 🎄

Rota query- can a rota by definition be a “resident rota”, if the doctor covering it has to cover 2+ hospital sites?
(It’s not a “NROC” as we’re doing in person reviews for the whole 12 hours, but calls are from both sites through the night shift and a 15-20 minute drive between the two)

Really enjoyed the fading on this poster about safe drinking water in Amsterdam, as it’s just kinda managed to make it look like the drinking water contains extra legionella

I don’t really like to put any positives to the miserable time that was being redeployed to a Covid HDU at the end of 2020. But dating the cardiology SHO after meeting there does now have a positive ring about it 💍

I’m Roisin, I am a useless medical student and not worth being in the vascular clinic as I need to go read the “ABC of vacular surgery” before I show myself in the department again 🩷

I’m Tharusha, I am always talking and I distract others. I’m sensitive and helpful but tends to be quite shy. My smile always seems like a guilty admission.

Somehow there is so much emotion behind that simple smiley face. What tortuous doctors and nurses’ handwriting have they seen? Or written?

I just spent 10 minutes trying to explain It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia to someone and I've decided there's no way to do it that actually makes anybody realize how funny it is. You just have to make them watch it.

At 29 it’s just been a constant experience of finding out another of your friends are pregnant every time you see them. But still also somehow feeling surprise every single time for yet another teen pregnancy amongst your group of friends in their late 20s/early 30s

Desperately trying to remember how to do anything vaguely academic and write up a case report. But all I can do is stare in confusion and wonder how I’ve supposedly written two dissertations for two different degrees but retained NOTHING 😭😭

I fear I am getting too old to drink energy drinks to get me through on-calls. Instead of keeping me awake I’m just finding myself darting between reviews with palpitations and worse on-call anxiety, while somehow still feeling constantly ready for a nap

I’m Róisín. I’m a core psychiatry CT3 in the UK. Currently trying to decide what to do with my life for registrar training. I love comedy & memes & everything that’s a break from the sad parts of healthcare. Usually that’s horse riding, but around a horse that likes to prioritise vet bills
