Mood - Minus 100 degrees . Cold.


I wake up, scared.
I don't want to leave the comfort of my bed. I don't sleep at all otherwise.
It really takes a lot of willpower to study by yourself all these 18 subjects. Easier said than done. I try studying using various methods but fall flat on my face. But the attempts I makes way to  the next step.

I was supposed to waltz through the study plan , not stumble.
I don't understand the 12-18hrs per day strategy. The dreamy heads like me lose focus after 10 minutes straight.In 12 hrs I have dreamt over 12thousand times.
I was supposed to be a tidal wave of energy , not the tired bag of bones and cellulite.

Studying on the bed , studying on the reading table have cancelled each other. Nothing helps. 

Discussions with friends end up with endless gossips.
I am afraid, unready, hoping that no one saw behind the facade of calm. I know that the world expects you to have it all figured out, that there's a reason a quarter life crisis isn't a thing.
The worst part is convincing yourself that your competition is with who you were yesterday and not with anybody else. Neither with the friend who finished 10 chapters today nor with the one who has not even started.

I wonder if it was stupid to believe that I could forge my own path through uncharted terrain. I wonder, till my mind begs me to stop. It tries to explain me that I either need food , sleep or a banter . But I cannot. I seem undeserving of rest.

Insecurity of  juniors outperforming have crept in.

The waist line is in power with the GST.

Need to sum up physical activity and this mental stress despacito. I don't really know how far this is going to help , but just to feel better about myself . I'd want to do it.

But now I looked bruised with a wounded body wondering where it all went wrong.


I trudge down memory lane , and wonder how I already have so many regrets. 

But then if you can't fix it laugh it out or just let it be. 

You can afford to regret only if it can make your rank any better.

You can afford to regret only if it could burn calories.

You can afford to regret only of it could slash down the GST.
Let the regret get a better plan out pf you
Let the regret make your determination stronger
Let the regret help you focus on the target

Too much for the day.
Because with every screw up, with every wound that you lick, you're carving your own path, away from mediocrity. So wear your screw ups like a badge of honour, own them...

 Bye!

Experience Based Co Design : BCT Series XXIX

  "Experience-Based Co-Design" we have all witnessed its essence unknowingly . My family home is the example I can reflect on .Growing up I didn't like how my house was designed. We (the whole extended family) wanted my dad to sell the house . Dad let his architect friend design our house and would not sell his house (for obvious reasons!). Mum had to balance out the situation so she decided to make small changes. So, it was one change idea each year .She would talk to us individually and listen to our perspective and review her sphere of influence and the impact /utility the idea had.For my siblings the colors were not welcoming while I pointed the flooring. Mum wanted the stairs to be personalised. My grandparents wanted certain conveniences around the toilets. It took her about 4-5 years to make the house a home that was acceptable . From color preferences to spatial arrangements, each family member contributed insights. The lovely thing about it was , the keystakehold...

" Consulting a psychiatrist would be a question mark on my spirituality " Said the patient.

Hello everybody  I hope everybody is safe and healthy. it's been a while that I've been receiving lot of patients in the emergency with mental illness ,thought of sharing an incident of its kind. Not sure if its the awareness of mental health these days or the pandemic, I am developing keen interest in patients with mental illness .I try to take an extra effort to make them feel comfortable and try to create an insight of what is happening and offer them options of what all can be done.  Since this it seems like a step towards patient care , I thought I'd share it here as well. This would probably not be the best approach but I welcome any type of constructive criticism , additions or subtraction to my approach because end of the day we are here for best patient care. A 50 years plus old gentleman ,presented to the emergency with the complaints of chest pain radiating to left arm , breathing difficulty, choking sensation in the throat, inability to open his ey...

MRCEM OSCE preparation and resources

Hello people Since I have cleared my OSCE in one go, I feel it's my duty to journal what all I have done to make it work.(humble brag).Thanks to ChatGPT for helping me pile up some humble generic sentence to make this blog wholesome.(Just kidding). The MRCEM OSCE exam is an integral part of the qualification which tests the clinical and communication skills of candidates. For Indian students pursuing this qualification, preparing for the MRCEM OSCE exam may seem daunting. However, with a few tips that helped me sail through fine. The thing that helped me the most is acclimatizing myself to the UK Clinical Setting Before appearing for the MRCEM OSCE exam, it is imperative for Indian students to understand the clinical setting in the UK. Sometimes , all they want to see is how you behave , your body language, your tone , and your organising skills. Diagnosis is not a critical thing here. You will not fail if you get a wrong diagnosis provided that you have done it systematically. So ...
