Some people say that mental health symptoms are only first world problems bcs life has become too convenient/easy so we have too much time to stress and make up our own problems. I thought that was interesting

I’ve been in recovery for a good number of years now, but the absolute breaking point for me whenever I start to slip back into destructive behaviors as a coping mechanism, is that I can’t study or think properly when I don’t give my body the fuel it needs. I started framing it in my mind as a form of selfishness to restrict my food intake at the detriment of my learning the material that will one day help me treat patients. A little bit of tough love if you will.

If you’re willing, could you go into how you got over it? In the same situation starting dental school so wondering how ed can be navigated during such a tough schedule.

processing STAT orders cured my general anxiety. (some of those, depending on how stupidly they're filed) are actual emergencies. the perspective fixed my anxiety totally, it's amazing.

The same thing happened to me with nursing school. I needed the energy to study, and I spent to much money and time to fail 😂

your hair is GORGEOUS but my school is pushing the “med students get fat and you don’t have time to eat” so sadly not the case for many in my class

I wish ED patients could be directed into hands on training programs for skills like hair braiding, electrical work, or coding
