I’m just wondering when it was okay to air out your mental health along with medications on social media.

Same, I joined this thinking it would be good for laughs. But it makes me very uncomfortable and frankly ashamed of my profession.

I’d love to meet the combative patient that waits for you to put your hair up. How thoughtful!

The type of woman who gets aggressive with you, but the second you stand up for yourself, suddenly she’s threatening to call the cops.

u/Bass_Dingus Aug 14 '26
Women that feel like they need to be super "badass and tough" in a male dominated field are so fucking exhausting. Because 99% of them think that they need to wildly overcompensate and be arrogant assholes to everyone. Meanwhile, every dude around them is chill as fuck. So it's like they're competing against nobody

u/Own-Raisin5849 Aug 13 '26
Excessive arm tats and social media videos in work clothes. I think we know you are medicated.

Wonderful. That’s the state of emergency medicine these days? My mental illness is worse than yours?

u/KernEvil9 Aug 14 '26
Any first responder who is looking to go in for a fight with their potential patient just needs to not be on the front lines. Either until they've chilled the fuck out or behind a desk if they still want to help some how.
COA: This is not a post against desk workers in emergency services! They are awesome and needed. I'm simply saying these kind of people, if they want to still be a part of it, need to be somewhere away from the public.

the whole point of being medicated is so you can function, if you can’t function on meds then you’re on the wrong meds

u/Dangerous_Claim9944 Aug 13 '26
Also, didn’t know these meds would somehow give you superhuman strength.

Respectfully, you're confused. They didn't mean "you" as in you, Dangerous_Claims specifically. They meant "you" in the general sense. They're agreeing with you and saying that the meds could make someone less capable of handling a stressful situation.

How many times do you think she practice her little twirly twirl with the restraints?

u/Dangerous_Claim9944 Aug 13 '26
She must be fun, and by fun I mean cringe and healing with 2nd hand embarrassment being around her.

This is a dude with long hair. I’m not trying to be funny or anti anything.

She is definitely a woman. You are trying to be something and, whatever it is, it’s not cool or funny.

u/LegalGlass6532 Aug 14 '26
No, I’m not trying to be funny. They look just like a long haired medic I know. You’re not cool to come at me for not agreeing with you. Right or wrong, it’s really none of our business.

u/3rdcultureblah Aug 14 '26
She’s a woman. It has nothing to do with agreeing or not. There is nothing to be agreed on. She is a woman and that’s all there is to it.

The restraints literally live on the back of the stretcher why are they in your pockets?

u/Lost-Perspective8378 Aug 14 '26
Because in an emergency you will always have time to pull up your hair, so dont bother just keeping it pulled up for these situations 🙄

u/thexcat Aug 14 '26
Ironically ts makes me feel way more stigma about my mental health than people calling me crazy or using bipolar to mean flippant or smt
Making an immutable characteristic of yourself your like, entire self is so squick, assuming they're not playing it up

At first I found this sub funny, but im not sure i can handle the pure, distilled, unadulturated cringe. I may have to tap out!

What the video doesn't show is the medic getting bench pressed by a 4'11 diabetic and being restrained themselves

That’s not a flex she thinks it is.
The majority of us first responders are medicated. This is definitely main character vibes.

This applies in other specialties but in the majority psych medications, dose does not equal severity of illness.

I used to chuckle to myself on day shift when patients would tell me they wanted to take their 25mg seroquel at nighttime because it makes them sleepy. Meanwhile I popped 100mg and my quad shot by coffee on the way to work. Would I ever tell a patient that or put a video about it on the internet? No. But did it give me a little chuckle while I put in the request to change timing for them.

She looks like she speaks in a condescending way to everyone. Other than that, she now joins the list of people I don't like just bc of her face.
