Listening is healing

Muahahaaha
It's 2.06am now,
and i am wide awake
no yawns, no watery eyes, wide awake!

was trying so hard to write a liason psychiatry report for the past 5 hours.
and only managed to type like a quarter of a page?!
and i am oh so deviating towards this magnet-like internet
that had my hands so itchy that i just have to write something..

If only i can channel this "inspiration" to the correct place!

Today, i feel like i'm some sort of hound looking for "sad", "depressed", "suicidal", "anxious", "siau" people in the wards.
Further, it takes hours / days to built rapport before some1 divulges their personal stuff, rantings, deep and bottomless fear to you.. right?
And, when we start to ask about hallucinations, be it visual or auditory, i get that look. That dirty look from the ward patient that thinks i'm the siau person instead. Hey, i'm looking pretty serious here ok ah pak! -_-'''


So, 1 word for the psychiatrists.

GENG.

They really got the patience to sit and wait and sit and wait till they spill their beans.

What goo?

Interestingly,
if you would want to peek into the future of your medical career
( eg : what specialty you are destined to be(!!?) ),
tolerance to Goo (which means slimey mucoid stuff) could be used as a "screening tool", as published by the CMAJ.

But, for the enthusiasts,
who prefer to have narrower lead as to what you might "be-come",
you could try this,
if only you have 15-20 minutes to spare to answer the 130 questions. *glups*

Delusions and illusions

The world is a fish market.
What do they do best?
Sell fish.


It is a wonder how we were taught and brought up.

Moral values like -
be noble!
do not lie!
be helpful!
humble!
caring!
share your wealth / knowledge!
never steal!
don't cheat!
etc...

is now being mocked! Mocked! MOCKED!!

Think about it.
When is the last time, you tried so hard to uphold your moral values,
but all you get is a spit in the face??
"you are so naive. yeah.. noble, but stupid."

No.
Being noble is not stupidity.

People i know of, who should be down-right good people, are letting people down.
They shouldn't be like this.
They should be moral-filled human beings.
Not people who are lured by shortcuts or "cheatcodes" or favors.

What happened during the course of growing up?
Is it because they were hurt?
And is this just one of the protective mechanisms that is being ticked off?
Gosh.Wake up!!
