talk abt nothing
Today, one of my English colleagues confide to me that she has been advised to work on part time basis due to her recurrent depression. I was quite surprised because she strikes as being such a bubbly and enthusiastic with the job (while my highlight of the day is the lunch hour time when I got to spend with other colleagues chatting abt nothing and having no brains/calling each other silly names like OAP & the spinster with 4 Bfs..hehe).
Depression is a funny thing isn't it? Almost organic despite everything in on your mind. Which differs from Chronic Fatigue and Fibromyalgia.
I am okay with my job at the moment - Rheumatology. Not overly enthusiastic; I do worry a little bit with all these weird and wonderfully confusing presentations of rheumatology disease and lupus spectrum. Worried if I missed the little clues - like mildly elevated CRP in the midst of SLE flare up; or is it really SLE flare and not infection. This colleague on the other hand want to solve everything; always want to be in control. Its hard. The thing is in medicine nothing is ever black and white; you tend to fall to this greyish area and you have to be okay with it. When you finished with your shift, get on with your life. Don't carry the baggage. And you really have to learn to say no; you cannot be nice to everyone.
Am looking forward to the Ikea trip!
Pray the mortgage will fall through soon!
