People wonder why doctors are burning out and nobody can find a primary care doctor.
Look at the sentiment below. The public thinks we are just being spoiled brats.
Yet your typical primary care doctor enters the workforce in their mid 30s and has a net worth of negative $200,000. Then they find that they get paid as much as a manager at Bucc-Ees for a job that’s more data entry than patient care.
And people still sneer at us with those replies.
@hannahspierMD A very important piece. Watch out for the “triggered,” “dysregulated,” “traumatized,” “invalidated,” or “unsafe" that will storm the thread. A quick look at their profiles will reveal the victimhood identity.
“When evening comes, I return to my home, and I go into my study; and on the threshhold, I take off my everyday clothes, which are covered in mud and mire,and I put on regal and curial robes; and dressed in a more appropriate manner I enter into the ancient courts of ancient men and am welcomed by them kindly, and there I taste the food that alone is mine, and for which I was born; and there I am not ashamed to speak to them, to ask them the reasons for their actions; and they, in their humanity, answer me; and for four hours I feel no boredom,I dismiss every affliction, I no longer fear poverty nor do I tremble at the thought of death; I become completely part of them.” - Machiavelli
Dear physician,
The reward for being an altruistic, conscientious, hardworking achiever is more work.
The system knows this.
That’s why it constantly gives you more responsibilities but never takes any away.
It knows that you will find a way even if it means sacrificing yourself.
The solution is not to abandon who you are.
The solution is to recognize you are being exploited and advocate for yourself.
Set your boundaries.
We can theorize and pontificate about psychiatric care until we’re blue in the face. It only really matters online. In real life, people with psychosis, mania, severe depression, etc. get observably better on psychiatric medications. No family member cares about the nosology
@Duskblossom@hannahspierMD I've had plenty of conversations, on a daily basis. I agree that nobody wants to be sick. Mechanisms of defense are not conscious efforts. There's no hate anywhere in these words. You're just irritated.
Long COVID serves a psychological purpose.
To be clear, I am not talking about cases where a viral infection causes demonstrable medical sequelae in specific organs or physiological systems. Those are real medical questions that should be investigated on their own terms.
I am referring to the broader cluster of symptoms often grouped under "Long COVID" that are predominantly psychiatric - subjective and nonspecific: fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, low mood, difficulty concentrating, and related complaints.
It helped keep the emotional world of the pandemic alive after the emergency had ended.
During COVID, being cautious was seen as virtuous. Avoiding risk meant being responsible and paying close attention to symptoms showed you were taking things seriously.
Public life reorganized itself around protection, accommodation, and the assumption that anyone could be gravely harmed.
In that sense, COVID accelerated the feminization of social norms: safety, emotional validation, vulnerability, and infantilizing care became the organizing principles of public life. Not helpful for those tending naturally towards neuroticism that was not only left unchecked but actively encouraged for over 3 years.
For those people, the end of the pandemic meant the loss of belonging, the dissolution of a social environment in which their concerns, anxieties, and risk assessments were widely shared and affirmed.
Long COVID allowed the crisis to continue in another form. It confirmed that all the fear and excessive care at the expense of others were justified. It preserved the sense that the extraordinary measures had indeed been necessary. It kept alive the emotional framework of the COVID years.
And in that framework, demonstrating concern for suffering becomes more important than asking the question: What actually helps people recover?
@AbbyHasIssues Some day the public will realize your doctors agree with you. We fucking hate it. But we don't make the rules anymore. I strongly encourage you to complain about the hospital/company and to your local representative since the gvt shapes how healthcare works in this country.
