DR. WAJEEHA ISSUES

Some GK stuff 

Hi Maria Assalaaamalaykum This is exam week! Are you even alive ? If you are you'd be a 32 year old . Are you a smarty or a bimbo? An emotional desi woman or a sensible woman ? What is your priority ? Your family , religion or career? I am extremely curious.  There is this final year ... That's pinching me hard . Did you clear it all at once . What was your Score in your post graduation? Which university ?   Curious forever -  your own self 

WHi! Often I throw tantrums at something that's simple and struggle for trifle. Such was the case in gynecology. I LOATHE gynecology ... I always made it an issue . Make placards out of it. I tagged it as a filthy department . To an extent that the department made me feel nauseated . The smell of the secretions itself was unbearable to add to the unusual pathological changes we saw in the roomy pelvis. This year 2015 . I thought to treat my phobia and repulsion with some radiotherapy (kidding) . I began to read stuff immediately after purchasing the books. It's a common phenomena In other medical students but I had NEVER done it. So I came out of my cliche ... Turned few pages ...  Still confused of what to read ...  The most rare condition or the most common one... I settled for the emerging one ... It was endometriosis ...  It was asked several times in examination. I thought it to be complex and ignored it . Finally when I gave it a read , I laughed at myself . The walls  I

Your first job fetches you names. You are either an ‘enthu cutlet’, who is enthusiastic about everything or an annoying ‘know-it-all’ who doesn't listen to her colleagues. It also makes you realise what sort of an employee are you. Whether you are a smart working aleck or a donkey worker. Either way, you realise your working style. You gave your best and paid fine attention to every small task. It was your way to prove yourself. You took the pressure and changed it to eustress which means good stress that demonstrated your awesome abilities. Makes You Think – ‘What Am I Doing With My Life?’ And, that’s normal. You will never be satisfied with your first job. After a certain point, monotony and boredom will creep in and will compel you to think intense questions like – ‘What am I doing with my life?’ ‘Is this my true purpose?’ And, that’s where life truly begins.

Hey hey hey So how can we learn to deal with loss, disappointment, and everyday setbacks more constructively? Keep in mind these coping strategies for grief. Three finance professors from major business schools tracked the performance of 75,000 Danish companies in the 2 years before and after the CEO had experienced a family death. Financial performance declined 20% after the loss of a child, 15% after the death of a spouse, and almost 10% after the demise of any other family member. Indeed, when brain imaging studies are done on people who are grieving, increased activity is seen along a broad network of neurons. These link areas associated not only with mood but also with memory, perception, conceptualization, and even the regulation of the heart, the digestive system, and other organs. This shows the pervasive impact loss or even disappointment can have. And the more we dwell on negative thoughts, the more developed these neural pathways become. The result can be chronic preoccupati

Do whatever it takes to save your hair.  Eat fish, eggs and other nutritious things that make your hair stronger. Oil your hair and get haircuts regularly. Else you'll be looking at old pictures and getting nostalgic about good hair. And pictures will be the only proof you once had hair.  Over-thinking is a bad addiction. Don't indulge in it.  Over-thinking will do more harm than good. It will stop you from achieving something that you can. Complete no-no.  Keep that damn phone away.  The phone will not take you anywhere. In fact, it will be the reason behind most of your problems. In hindsight, those nights you spent chatting and texting only seem a waste of time. Instead, try and be with people around you and pay more attention to what they say. Those are the conversations that'll stay with you for life. Walk away from people before it is too late.  If they are toxic  , let them go. NOW.  Most important of all, step out of your comfort zone. Read non-fiction if you are fo

Hi.  Saturday is an Advice day. While Sunday is a fun day .  Life  in a medical school is an amalgam of fun and run . Both are in extremes. You are fun like you never had before, and study like you never did before.  So here are some bits of advices. 1. What Has Happened, Happened   When we enter a rough patch, depression becomes prevalent. It is important to realize that in most situations, there is nothing you can do about it. There is no reason to stress yourself about an outcome you had no control over. You need to look at the situation as an opportunity to improve, make needed changes, and move on. While that may be indescribably painful, you are not alone.  2. Reach Out To Others   Others have been in your situation before. The names are changed, some of the details are blurred, but someone else out there has walked the same path as you, and has made a better life for themselves. Seek out these people – they will guide you through the heartbreak, they can help you find another j

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same… Rudyard Kipling  Now that I’ve experienced nearly three years of medical school, I'd  like to think I have finally understood the meaning behind the metaphor. When you are surrounded by successful people – be it in sports, academics or the arts – the pressure to succeed is immense. Society, it seems, has a very low tolerance for failure. Imagine the magnitude of the pressure when you are in medical school: grades suddenly become everything, and a high score garners respect. Not that there is anything wrong with scoring above average. The problem is when society defines success as only that which can be measured. One day, just seven days before my exams, I decided I could no longer take it. I had been contemplating quitting medical school since the first year, but at that moment, the desire felt stronger than ever. Medical school was becoming a rat race. I was learning so much yet nothing made sen
