Sometimes you cannot cope alone. And it's okay.🫶
I personally did therapy while in burnout, but I didn't connect my mental issues with my working environment, because back then nobody knew officially that vet med was a hot spot for mental illness. 🙄
There are several approaches to psychotherapy.
✔️Psychodynamic
✔️Behavioral
✔️Cognitive
✔️Humanistic
✔️Integrative
...
Search the one that suits you best, and, if possible, choose a psychotherapist/ counselour with whom you connect easily. There are several ways therapy will make a difference.
💡If you're now considering if you need psycotherapy or not, it's because you do!

As clinical trainees, we were wired to be flawless. But mistakes happen, and if we don't manage our high self expectations properly, they could help trigger depression.
I just wish they could have programmed us to celebrate successful cases too. Do you agree?

Hey, let's talk about boundaries at work, shall we?
"I can´t do that X-ray (whatever) for you, but I can help you find someone who can."
"I can't take on additional cases right now."
"I'm uncomfortable with what you just said/ did."
"I won't be spoken to in this manner."
"I wish I could, but I can't stay longer."
"No, thank you"
"No."
Now, go and practice this for your mental health's sake. It's Tuesday, sleep over it and start again tomorrow.

As a community, we must celebrate every single time someone puts their emotional needs first and stands for it.
It requires a lot of bravery, strength, and even interior battles with ego. Moreover, in medical fields, where people are trained to be superhuman.🦹
👉This post is dedicated to those who have been, still are or want to start their healing process.❤️
Every MENTAL HEALTH MILESTONE is a step closer to true wellbeing:
✔️First time I challenged my own beliefs about what was expected from my vet role.
✔️First time I talked about my feelings with someone I trusted.
✔️First time I didn’t pretend to be okay.
✔️First time I went to therapy/counseling.
✔️First time I felt validated and stopped feeling guilty.
✔️First time I found the right words to explain what was going on to my family.
✔️First time I set a boundary and said “no” at work when I used to say yes.
✔️First time I put myself first and (really) believed it.
✔️First time I found something that made a huge difference, and started seeing the way out.
🩺🪷 What was your personal emotional health milestone? Tag that vet/tech friend that you are proud of 💪

Did you know that one of the turning points for leaving the clinical profession is when women become mothers 🍼?
Having to choose between your vocation and raising your children 🦸should never be an issue in a true equal world 💪.
If you are a #vetmanager, this year, instead of sending happy women's day greetings or treats, what about acknowledging that women 👩🎓account probably for the 70% of your working force and the talent you'd better retain? 💰
👉What a difference it would make for everyone! Check out our website @happyvetproject for more to retain female talent on the long run.

⭐ 5 WAYS TO ORGANISE YOURSELF BETTER AT WORK 🤩
1. DECLUTTER
Clear your desk from old patient blood work copies and marketing materials, and also clean your locker from old biscuit crumbs 🐜, empty vacutainers, old notes, unstained slides. Do it at least monthly!
👉YOUR PRODUCTIVITY WILL RISE AND YOUR MIND WILL REST.
2. MEALS
Plan your menu for the week 🍱, shop online, batch cook once or twice, and store it in glass recipients ready to go & eat. Complement it with daily healthy snacks: nuts, fruit...
👉YOU’LL EAT BETTER, MAINTAIN A HEALTHIER WEIGHT, IMPROVISE LESS AND STOP SKIPPING MEALS
3. CALLS AND EMAILS
Organise your time with 15 min of calls + 15 min of emails before and after the appointments. This way, daily follow-ups are done in 1 hour. When you miss someone on the phone, send them an email with notice of reading, so you’ll know.☎️
👉YOU’LL KEEP UP TO DATE, CONCENTRATE BETTER AND WILL AVOID PAPERWORK BUILDUP
3. SURGERIES
The day before, prepare the anaesthesia protocols, estimate the doses, sort the drugs💉 and endotracheal tubes, prep the operating room 😷, refill the vaporiser, check oxygen, and get the post-operative prescriptions pre-filled.
👉LESS STRESS AND MORE TIME TO DEAL WITH COMPLICATIONS
4. AT HOME
Prepare your clothes for the next day, pre-set your breakfast🥣 , get your lunch and snacks bag ready in the fridge, perform a maintenance house core 🧹 before going to sleep, and another one before going to work, to keep things going.
👉MORE TIME IN THE MORNING TO EXERCISE AND START SLOW
Share and save it for later 💝
