The Sweet Smell of Psych
Friday was my official first day as a PGY-2 resident in psychiatry. I rotated at a new hospital for geriatric psychiatry. I was instantly dazzled and enticed by my new, lovely, elderly psych patients. Today I was on call in the psych emergency room. I was quite busy. I admitted and discharged quite a few patients, including a 13-year old girl who was a prisoner. I swear I have a lot of stories to share, but am preferring at the moment to eat the leftovers in my fridge and sip some cold, white wine.
I am happy. I am quite satisfied to be back to psych after 6 months in neurology and medicine. Psychiatry really lights my fire.
Also, I have a passion for photography, in case you didn’t notice. For me, psychiatry and photography have quite a lot in common. It’s all about the stories.
Enjoy instead the photos with this post. I think they are some nice ones. Citations below. Nitey!
