Roll Call 16

I'm here I've just been reading a psych resident forum on another site...having lots of fun spying on the opposition!

I'm here with you so don't be embarrassed. I guess the others are busy today. You know how weekends are quiet here.

I know many times people read Roll Call but don't post. I do that myself too.

yea understandble. i forgot how some people read but dont post. lol i can only feel like im embarrassig myself

what are they saying about us. i used to read a nursing forum. allnurses.com or something. the psych nursing area was full of threads!

You're not embarrassing yourself seriously! You and I gave been having conversation. It's really helped me today. I appreciate you being here with me.

well im glad i did something good today. lol

I would be afraid to read a pnurses forum, honestly...

They actually don't talk about patients all that much at all it more like procedures and policies but there was this one thread I loved...
Poll Time- If it comes to taking an antipsychotic, which one would you prefer? | Student Doctor Network
They voted on which AP they would take and rather than go with the most effective they went with the least side effects...then they admitted to being just like their patients.

all i ate today were a few grapes. a banana. some coffee. some pickle juice. and i think thats it. im still feeling nauseated.

wow. admitted to being just like us? lol.

and
dont be afraid!

Once the hang over is gone your stomach should feel better. Did the pickle juice make any difference?

Yeah one guy was actually voting for taking a placebo....just like us!

not really :/

its not my stomach that hurts. its a sensation in the back of my throat. that gag reflex in the back. i think its psychological. but my stomach does hurt a bit.

I'm sorry!

well i threw up just now. sorry.

on the other hand i feel a little better...

Oh dang! Sorry to hear that!

its ok. i tried.
i think thats what needed to happen anyways. unfortunately.

Yeah sometimes throwing up does make you feel better. Just be sure to drink plenty of water.

i definitely will. and tea. lol.

im getting nervous. some people from high school are finding my facebook and adding me...im slightly nervous.

You could block them.

crap. too late. i already added two. its ok. its not a problem but im just nervous. i get real nervous real fast.

You can ignore their request and just never add them. I do that all time and let them inbox rot lol.

Sometimes when people add me I accept their request and it's fun getting to know people better. I gained more friends after high school through facebook and it's easier to connect with people too.

yea its been 6 years i think since i was in high school. i just dont know what theyll think of me. its just two people (right now). im trying to be more open to adding people i just am afraid thas all. im trying to get over that fear if i can.

People our age like to add people from their high schools so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

This was a great article written by a pdoc in favor of taking people off meds...
