On today’s episode of Psych award Shenanigans a patient threw a full cup of Coca Cola at me for asking him if he was feeling depressed today 🙃

In case this is my last tweet I just want to confirm that men cause 100% of all unwanted pregnancies.

@theresaforever Increase pumping frequency! Skin to skin. Certain foods can help, especially oats or oat milk. Sometimes supply dips for a few days before starting your cycle/hormonal fluctuations. Increase demand (by pumping or nursing more freq)& after a few days your body will increase supply

When your patient is delusional and angry about her involuntary admission and threatens to deduct $500 from your paycheck for every 5mins she has to continue to stay in the hospital because she “owns this place.” 🤣🤣🤣

🗣Med cup to mouth!!!! Not dump meds from med cup into hand and proceed to throw one in your mouth and the rest over your shoulder!

Nothing says “I’m a POS” like refusing to wear a mask around your colleague who has an underlying condition when it really won’t hurt you.

I think one of the hardest parts, mentally, of this pandemic is seeing…. as a person who has dedicated their life to wanting to help others… that a large population of people care about no one but themselves.

Had a colleague tell me, “To be clear, I’m not depressed. I’m reacting appropriately to the world around me”. Oof, felt that.

Working on a psych unit is always interesting.

People who are vaxxed and masked are the same people who did all the work in the group project.

Anybody know why multiple kids on the psych unit have reported “alternate personalities” in the past few weeks. These adolescents were not in the facility at the same time. What is going on here? Is there a new tik tok telling kids they have alternate personalities? 🤣

[Psych Ward Shenanigans @SassyRNProbs]

Is it just me or does burning candles make the room warmer? I mean, it is fire. I swear it’s hot as hell in here and my husband says candles do not make it warmer.

Look if a surgeon can do a Whipple procedure wearing a mask the entire time Timmy’s gonna be just fine learning math in one.

[Psych Ward Shenanigans @SassyRNProbs]

But why doesn’t this kid of mine sleep for longer than an hour at night now?! Mama is tired, y’all.

[Psych Ward Shenanigans @SassyRNProbs]

Bring a psych nurse practitioner is much different than I thought. I hated working with adolescents as an RN, they aight as an NP 🤣
