Behind every mentally ill person

Is a secret tumbler account they vent on to strangers

Ugh one of our ICU patients I actually did exams on for a few days in a row passed away, and it’s just weird you know. It sucks. He was young, even threw a few jokes even though he wasn’t doing well. And then all of a sudden, poof.

Like. Damn. He was younger than me.

Life is so unexpected.

You can only pay for one thing

$1,890 to fix your car

$2,000 for the dental work you need

$2,300 to fix your bathroom (bathroom unusable until then)

Hmmm 🤔

🥹 I’m ok. Life will be okay. I can do this.

-internal screaming-

Paid 1k$ in January to fix my car.

Now my engine light is on.

It doesn’t end 🥺😭

I can’t afford anything else with this car, like come on, give me a break please.

When you don’t care but you gotta push yourself because you know you’re just hitting your low. But you still have to be a responsible adult no matter how much you don’t want. No matter how badly you want to pick up something sharp and hide in a corner.

Keep pushing.

I really don’t want to.

Jesus Christ on a cracker

They didn’t even do shit. Kept me for 4 hours and told me I’m good.

I started feeling faint at work and then my body kind of went numb, my hands started shaking so they wheeled me into the ED

Well next time just let me be and throw some cold water on me maybe 🥲🥲

There’s good days and bad days.

Unfortunately today has now become a bad day.

No reason, it just hit me. Like here you go, you’ve been having too many good days lately. Suck on this sour lemon for a bit.

My body itches for something. Something to hurt and make it ache more. It’s aches for pain. It itches for blood.

And here I thought I was going to sit down and study for my exam. Instead I was staring at my screen for an hour. Hopeless and uselessly wasting time.

*screams filled of rage*

Ok

On to the rest of our day.

Me: forgetting I’m allergic to cats and covering myself in them and their fur.

Also me: sneezing and crying and breaking out in hives 😅

I love my sisters babies though.

Had an interesting event last night.

Felt cold dread wash over me and then started being lightheaded. Then cue the narrowing vision with the dark edges.

What was I doing?

Standing in my kitchen making a pie. So yeah. That was exciting.

Didn’t pass out luckily but felt really close to it.

Took my blood pressure like 15 mins later and was 103/63.

So yeah.

Interesting

Hi, I was wondering if I could ask you questions about being an x ray tech? I seen you in the tag and was wondering if you liked your job? I’ve been looking into going to school for x ray and was wondering if you like it

Hi! Happy to answer any questions you have. Yes, I do love being an xray tech. It’s been very eye opening but so much fun too. I’m happy I chose to go into this field. I work at a big city hospital so we see a lot of diverse cases. School was mentally exhausting I will say that, you have to make sure you have the family support because once clinical start you will be busy.

I know different countries/ states have different schooling requirements but here in Illinois I did 2 years for X-ray with an associates degree. Plus the licensing exam.

Honestly if you want to work in healthcare, aren’t easily grossed out and can take criticism (plus being yelled at by drunk patients) you got this. It’s definitely an experience!

I’ve been up in surgery lately and that’s even a whole different thing with X-ray. But just as exciting. 🤗

When you close your eyes and the world start spinning.

Omfg can things go right for one damn day.

I’m shaking.

I don’t know why.

Caffeine? Anxiety? Panic attack?

Let’s fold some laundry 😵‍💫

[comicabrasions]

Constantly making a list of my symptoms for when I go to my doctor, only to never bring it up because that day I feel fine and I’m definitely just being a drama queen 🤦‍♀️

Stupid list, it’s not real lol

Maybe I’m being a hypochondriac.
