warpednormal's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - i really still want to be a mental health nurse. i can feel it in my blood and in my heart. i have never been more interested in people's charts and histories than i do in this placement. but somehow, i feel like i'm not really in it right now. we only have one more week left and i feel like i haven't fully absorbed everything it has to offer. there's still so much i want to learn and so much i want to improve in when it comes to working with psychiatric patients. i have a special place in my heart for people living with psychosis. i'm not sure why, but i do indeed, feel some strange connection to people that hear voices or have strange delusions. its just so fascinating. so extreme. so different from what we've come to expect of people and how they should behave. i really really need to spend the rest of my life learning about these beautiful minds. 5:32 p.m. - 2010-07-06 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
