My wife (no pics) is an ER doc. I’ve had to learn how to navigate her bad shifts. Sometimes she just comes home and doesn’t want to talk at all. Most of the time it’s good though. No fricking way I could handle some of the things she sees. Abused and mistreated children are the worst for her. It’s weird to me someone coming in with limbs dismembered from a car wreck don’t affect her much. I would def have to have a counselor or therapist I saw on the reg.

My brother was an RN in the ER for about 10 years. He told me the MVAs and GSW weren't to bad to deal with. It was the kids and the people that came in feeling bad but talking, laughing and joking then ended up dieing on them for 1 reason for another.


For his mental health he had to get out of there. Worked in the Cath Lab for a long time then became an FNP. Now he works in a clinic treating colds and doing physicals. Much less stressful and makes way more money.
