Wow, I liked it way more than I thought I would. I found the psych ward, the people who work their, the patients, and the groups so fascinating. Will I ever work on a Psych ward? Probably not. Although I really enjoyed the experience, I realized I was being more sympathetic rather than empathetic. I wanted to fix all the problems the patients have but it just isn't that easy. I imagine that if I would ever work on a psych ward it would be emotional exhausting and I would burn out in a matter of weeks. Because of that, with these 5 clinicals, I want to absorb as much as possible since I probably will never step foot on a Psych ward again. One down, four more to go.
Live joy.
