It's so frustrating working in a profession where very little discussion can occur outside of work about work. My friends and family just don't get it, unless they are right there beside me. My job is like no other. It's not just about patience. Or Patients. It's about putting your values, your thoughts, your beliefs completing to the side, and pushing past judgement and insecurities, and going to the source of the problem for the sake of the ill.
I love my job. I love the adrenaline, the stress, the encouragement, the support, and the help----but it comes from within only, because others just don't get it. Before when I was tired because I spent the entire day on the phone, now I am tired because I sat down once in 12 hours-to pee. Before when I was stressed it was because I failed to send out a proper email, now I am stressed because someone is dying. Before when I was physically tired from sitting at a computer all day, now I am physically tired because I lifted over and over.
sometimes i just need ice cream more and more often :).
