If you experienceI hate the hospital syndrome, then this is a must-read.
That tiny but serious voice inside your head telling you that you need to get out but there are serious doubts that youcannot survive another day at work.
It can make you emotionally done-zo, drive you further to hate your daily life andmake you step outside the normalcy box because you are desperate.
Butwhen it reassures you that you seriously feel hatred, then it makes you seem normalstanding around bitching with others who also hate their job.
And its important to recognize thedifference betweenhating your jobbecause ofcompassion fatigue & burnoutversusjust hating the 12 hours away from home.
If that serious voice in your head turns on then you should consider this:
You have the power to change that
EKKKKKK hold on
Stop your eye rolls I can feel them from a trillion miles away.
You have the capability to change yourself from the inside out.
Your body is constantly showing you the way out of distress but youve been programmed to ignore it!
Whats insanely special about this whole thing is that you canturn your brain on and off like a switch.
If you dont start or take too long to start because you worry that your not going to be able to do it
If youfeel like youve tried everything out there and youve had zero results
Or if you feel like I just want to quit
Then SOS, CODE BLUE, or WHATEVER IS GOING TO MAKE YOU KEEP SCROLLING.
You have nothing to lose than to read up
No one else has the combination of techniques-the combination of working bedside nursing with the true perspective and insight of the hospital system, years of tweaking Real-Time Transformative Response (my 2 step- method to combat compassion fatigue and burnout), and passion to help nurses and not the patients.
And, you can bet that everyone everyone experiences compassion fatigue and burnout.
Even the people who we perceive as the mostdocile and confident people. They too have felt or are currently feelinghatred for the hospital.
Thefrustration train left the building for me years ago,when I see nurses struggle I get pissed off,I used to feel sad.
Its my tiny voice that was screaming at me to help.
Treat The Nurse And Not The Patient.
They think that nurses arent humans.The dollar sign syndrome hit the government, Big Pharm and the hospital systems. And of course the ungrateful patients that believe its an obligation that they get impeccable service versus treating their symptoms.
If this is you, suffering the effects of the dollar syndrome, I hope you read these next words because I too was that gal not long ago.
YOU have the control to allow energy to change and manipulate you,if you do not understand KEEP READING
Have you heard ofBiofield Science?
Our bodies are measurable electromagnetic energy fields.
It is aFACTthat our energy is constantly moving. Its like gravity. This has been known for thousands of years.
Itsbeing proven or has already been provedfor the naysers by using MRIs, CTs, EEGs, and just plain observation. Integrative medicine is using several amazing techniques to heal humans and animals from the inside out.
You were born with everything you need. The skills, gifts and passions to heal yourself if you get off kilter.
Have you ever thought about whatmodern medicine is now?
To me- youre sick, you go to the doctor for a magic pill,inside of going back to the basics what is my body needing or seeking?
Just imagine for a moment being at work and feeling off kilter but being able to turn on a switch and diffuse that feeling.
I was at work and used your 2 step-method and I could actually feel heat coming from my hands, I knew that I had immediately shifted. I could think clearer and the best part was that no one else was bothering me. All the hustle and bustle was literally, just that. Noise and movement. D.D. RN
You love nursing so much, its practically imprinted into your DNA literally.
Can you imagine if you never graduated?
Id feel a hole in my heart. As much as I HATED the hospital it changed my life forever.
I not only helped patients along the way but now I was given theglorious gift to serve my fellow nurses.
I am not a crier. Like, 4 times in my entire career. But I can cry every time I think about helping nurses.
What a complete waste of talent we all would be ifwe all left.
And sure,nothing is truly going to change healthcare EXCEPT the way we control ourselves.
Do you know I mean?
Another SOS or CODE I constantly see is when my fellow science-based nurses dont believe they have the power to help themselves.
Almost so cynical and hospital depressed they believe there is no way out
And I get it. I thought that way too. I almost checked myself into the ED for a mental eval. I was at my hospital hatred syndrome rock bottom.
There are upsides to working in the hospital shift work can be amazing for family balance or single people who love to travel. I am sure the list can be made very long
But it can feel like you have to have tough skin and just deal with the environment, patients, PTSD, overwhelm, anxiety, burnout, and thats part of the job.
And thats just not true.
When I started working in the hospital, it was the golden years it was amazingly fun and people were supportive, sweet, accommodating, understanding, believed in team-work, and checked in on you
But what I realized was that after amajor meltdown, I had the power. NOT the hospital.Not this job. Not this tainted money that was going into my bank account.
My hatred for the hospital was so deep thatI actually hated their money.
My meltdown was my awakening.
Like a frying pan to the faceI had the ability to turn my hatred into a passion to help treat the nurse and not the patient.
I had a natural gift I was repelling.
I reached out to multiple brilliant neuroscientist, quantum physicist, psychotherapist to gather data, techniques andconfirmed what I had created, Real-Time Transformative Response, would work.
Two-steps that are life altering.
And then, asked my husband if he thought I was insane
He smiled and said, no.
Which, if you knew my husband he is so literal, so logical, and sooooo by the book that is when I decided toset off on a journey to help my fellow nurses.
And thats where I started with complete desperation because my hatred for the hospital was so deep that I knew I had to change or else it would emotionally and/or physically kill me
I really want you to think about that.
You do not have to live in this cyclical pattern.
Its very unlikely that you will ever be given the tools to decompress, debrief and reduce your compassion fatigue from the hospital.
That is a fact.
Tools to use every single day of your life That isnt a commitment to drive back and forth to therapy, pop a pill or be on FMLA to cope.
Its kinda that CODE that happens- that is a wicked one
And theres a ton of people.
You dont have to be the loudest.
You just have to be the most efficient.
You just have to be the best you possible for your patient.
And because you want to be that, you have to think outside of the box
You have the power to change you.
Born with everything you will ever need.
And you dont have to live life dreading the drive in.
You just have to realize that its a lot simpler than you think.
So dont give up on yourself.
