Next week I start my 1st ever series of night shifts as a doctor
Anyone got any good tips for surviving them?
Genuinely donβt know what to expect or how to prepare
(Think Iβve seen threads π§΅ about this before but canβt seem to find them, so feel free to link them if you can)
Iβve had induction for the past week, but it was mainly lectures π΄
Not sure Iβll have time to think about making dramatic life changes π₯²
Finished my 1st day working as a doctor
β¦& I loved it*. This is exactly what Iβve been dreaming. I loved finally getting to do even the most mundane of dr tasks
Leaving the hospital with a spring in my stepπ₯°
*ask me if I still feel this way after Iβve done an on call/night
From 4 August 2025, sexual health clinics will be able to offer a free vaccine to patients at highest risk of the sexually transmitted infection (STI), including gay and bisexual men who have a recent history of multiple sexual partners and a bacterial STI in the previous 12 months. The 4CMenB vaccine will help shield those most at risk of gonorrhoea - potentially averting up to 100,000 cases of the disease, while easing pressure on vital NHS services. It will play a significant role in the governmentβs shift from sickness to prevention as it makes the NHS fit for the future as part of its Plan for Change.
On Monday, the 4CMenB vaccine for gonorrhoea has now been rolled out in sexual health clinics in the UK
Pls recommend this to your at-risk patients, itβll help reduce gonorrhoea rates & limit the increase in antibiotic-resistant βsuperβ gonorrhoea

This bleep is mine for the next 4 months
Years of med school, training, and blood, sweat, & tears have led to me becoming a doctor
Wishing luck & positive vibes to all my fellow new FY1s (we got this πͺ)

I just got the confirmation that Iβve satisfied all requirements for graduation
& Iβm very happy to have been awarded the Henry Parsey Prize, a psychiatry award from my medical school π₯°

Iβve been to Berlin twice! Love it there π₯°
I know itβs a busy time to be travelling but itβs my last time before Iβm busy doctoring!
Preferable nowhere thatβll be horrendously hot and busy

4 years ago today I went to my 1st ever @gladduk.bsky.social meeting (online agm cos Covid)
Today I went to my first GLADD meeting as Co-Chair
So proud of the work we do π₯°ππ€
Lots of people with same illness arenβt lucky, many remain chronically unwell, hospitalised,l & struggle to find an effective meds
I hope that we can develop more effective treatments for people with SMI in the future, so they can live healthy, fulfilled lives like me
I have trauma from my time being unwell & being hospitalised.
Iβm lucky to be 2 years stable, & I have recently passed med school
Having had my own lived experience of SMI & hospitalisation, I hope I can draw on those experiences to have empathy for my future patients

Being unwell with psychosis was terrifying, but Iβm so lucky to have found meds that keep me well & Iβve found stability
One thing that sucks about being an adult is you donβt get to spend beautiful
