Same with nurses used to make me angry when they didn't understand how horribly a patient was feeling. I mean they may have cut themself or taken an overdose helps if the person caring for them has been in their shoes. I remember a patient whose med pooped out she was hospitalized and started on a med she was an ER nurse and went home and back to work and was readmitted the next day. She looked into my eyes exploded in tears saying but I'm doing what the docs said why won't my med work now. I literally could feel myself almost become a part of her her pain was so real I was then able to fully understand. And had been on paxil first ad when thyroid went and I totally understood. Shortly after I had to leave as I got too sick to work but I'll never forget her and wonder a lot if she found a med that worked for her. Empathy is so important. Love Phillipa
