Burnout is Really Just Fear of Losing Yourself

Burnout is Really Just Fear of Losing Yourself

My therapist helped me realize something seemingly profound during a recent session. This burnout thing–it’s not my first rodeo, but it’s been a looooonng time.

First Do No Harm Is A One Way Street

First Do No Harm Is A One Way Street

Dear Diary, Some patient’s are @$$holes. I’ve read multiple articles about dealing with difficult patients (this one is probably one of my favorites) and sometimes I take pride in how well I can calm a disgruntled patient myself. Yet, I’ve also noticed, more and more, that when we promise to “do no harm” to patients, that… Read the Post »
