bad day at work
OK, so I think I have mentioned that I am a social worker in a psych ER. It is always amazing to me that whenever I am TTC I wind up with all the PG patients. Well, today topped that.
Tomorrow, I will wear my new turtle charm (thanks Kathy). I think I can handle animal rights questions and comments.
Sorry, just needed to vent!

Re: bad day at work
WOW! Im so sorry! PLease take care of yourself ....I Dont know how to help so I will just say its ok to feel as you do.
Its not the same but I often have people calling in asking if we cover pregnancy termination and where can they go, can I call the place etc...
While I do not judge them for their decisions AT ALL...I hate being placed int he position to have to be 100% helpful when in my own shoes I am hating to even talk about it.
Venting helps!!
I give you lots of credit!! Your stronger then you think!

Re: bad day at work
Oh wow Pauline, I'm sorry you had to deal with that! That is truly awful...
Maybe you should take a few days off to clear your head. You should also talk to your co-workers again and gently remind/ask them to not let patients like that get through to you. It's just too hard.
It is her illness that makes her say things like that - just try to remember that. Just know that if she was not mentally ill, she would not be talking like that. If she was on meds and not ill she would probably be mortified that she said anything like that to you or anyone.
I hope the rest of your week is better, I''ll be thinking of you!

Re: bad day at work
Thanks everyone. My coworkers were actually really upset that she got thorugh to me, but she didnt mention it to anyone she saw before me.
Aside from feeling bad for that little girl, I did feel bad for this woman. She was very sick and I know later she will probably be mortified that she said those things.
I am feeling much better today, just the run of the mill patient with schizophrenia today- much easier for me

Re: bad day at work
That is really frustrating and depressing. It must be so hard to have to try to be understanding to people with issues like that. You are very strong!
