As a retired female French doctor, listening to you, l want to say how much l l appreciate your video and your dedication to your mission. l remember feeling the same 40 years ago but sometimes overwhelmed by the task of being a good and empathetic doctor. You have all the qualities to be an excellent practitioner. But Don't forget that if medecine is an important part of your life, it is not all your life....

It is hard to be a physician especially early in your career. I suggest you both considering seeing a psychologist for coaching and help with re-framing the stress associated with your residency training and career challenges. The stress of the COVID-19 pandemic has hammered all in healthcare, and many in healthcare (MD's, NP's, PA's, RN's and others) have needed mental health support. It is also important to think about all of the positives you encounter daily with helping people. We work in a wonderful profession but "even doctors cry" as a colleague has said.

Confusion is the gateway to learning. Without confusion there is no learning. I was told that remember that you aren't the hurting one, the person you are to help needs you to realize the difference. They need you at your best and clear head. Being in that state doesn't mean you don't care it actually you place them before you because you care. Switching empathy positions is imformative yet professionally its not jumping into the river its more dipping you toe in to understand the current to use as part of treatment. The empathy switch is natural and is unconscious, however developing your observing self which you have should already been doing is going to allow you to give yourself emotional space to get the work done. All I had to take a couple of breaks after the situation to collect myself. Did I have some tears you bet, sometimes it was anger. It can vary. You will do well because you are talking about it and that is yourself working through those issues. One of my duties I was the doc that for years place people on suicide watch and took people off suicide watch to discharge. No pressure there. Right!

It's unnerving to read you saying how you're crying all the time and how 7 critically ill patients got thrown onto you. I mean I fully understand how doctors are human but to read how stressed a doctor is while caring for extremely ill patients is not comforting. Maybe speak up and ask for help. Never knew doctors felt like extremely ill patients were merely "thrown" your way?! Maybe placed in your care sounds better. Wouldn't want to upset your day. That is, if you know what's going on.

it is perfectly OK to vent your steam and emotion!!! Don't feel embarrassed! 30 years ago, I worked as a medical lab technologist in a STAT lab at ER. It was my first job. Very stressful and extremely high pressure to make sure all the test data had to been reported within 30 min because of ER. A lot of yelling from some critical patients' family members because the reports of lab test data were delayed, especially when patients were under CPR. ER doctors were in great need of knowing the patient's blood chemistry!! After 3 years, I quit and pursued my PhD degree in Pathology. Now I work as a professor in one university. Every time, when I had a nightmare while sleeping, the dream was always mainly about my life in a STAT lab at ER. I feel you!!

Dear. Dr. Izzy Sealey, I am a M.D. in the US. I am sure you doing your best. Be kind to yourself. Your patients are lucky to have you.

You have a position of great honour, dealing with people at some of their worst and most vulnerable points. It is okay to recognise that it also has great repercussions. I've been in army reserves, taught in tough schools, helped with embalming in a funeral directors and now training to go either into prison officer or coronial work. One thing that really helped with my PTSD was understanding that stress and upset at the time of an event or when remembering it are reasonable reactions to unreasonable situations. The pressures on the NHS and the fast-paced environment of your work, and being around ill, dying or recently deceased people are all unreasonable, unnatural situations to be in. We're not evolved to like it! Add the pressure of wanting to get it done well for the patients and your colleagues and your own self-drive, then feeling overwhelmed and finding it upsetting is perfectly reasonable, natural and normal. I hope this helps you. Whenever I felt myself feeling swamped by negative emotions like sadness or panic I repeated - these are reasonable emotions, they are natural. This situation is not normal, but I can do what I can to cope with it. My heart truly goes out to you. Great respect for your choice of career, and great respect for conscious choices in your life regardless of where it takes you. You are strong.

Sending hugs ❤ This is a lovely video for all new FYs. There are always more new challenges coming up in medicine - not an easy job, can sometimes feel like an emotional roller coaster. Lots of sacrifices involved, the career goes beyond just the working hours. The higher up you go, the more/heavier responsibilities are. But we'll also grow stronger emotionally to deal with them. It's a lifelong stressful job, but also very rewarding when you see yourself making a difference in patients' lives. Remember to always take a break and prioritise your own wellbeing in this journey! Only by taking care of yourself, you'll then be able to deliver the optimum care for patients. All the best in your career and future undertakings! ❤

Thank you for being vulnerable and sincere with us! And thank you for your hard work, thanks to all the health workers 🙏🏻

Wow - An amazing video. You are an incredible person. Please, absolutely, absolutely no need to apologize. (But we have come to know that being polite and courteous is a wonderful and genuine part of your nature.) It is so, so clear that you are an incredibly compassionate, skilled, and caring physician. If all physicians had the heart and skills that you have, NHS, and the profession would be so much better off. I really hope that you had family and friends there nearby to give you a big hug, support, and console you when you needed it. Thank you for having the courage to share. You are an incredible role model and the best of humanity.

As a new medical student starting in a few months, my heart sank halfway through this video but then slowly your words of encouragement brought it back to life. I appreciate you posting this video so much and I hope you continue to transition smoothly. I can tell you will be one of the best doctors in any trust you work at!

Izzy, bless you, you brought me almost to tears. You are so honest and open in sharing your experiences and feelings with us, such a beautifully genuine person. We are so proud of you.

My husband is also a doctor and has shed some so many tears throughout his residency, even every now and then as attending physician because you're never fully prepared for what cases that are being thrown at you. It's very emotional and physically taxing. Please remember to give yourself grace and don't be afraid to ask for help when needed, you don't have to put all the burdens on yourself 🌸🌺

It is true that this can be exhausting, and at times I too, feel like I’m just a shell of a human. I remember the anticipation and anxiety that filled me when I first started. I was overwhelmed and I wasn’t sure I could make it through. I wrote a wrong progress report one time and I felt as if the world is ending. But we are still here yay!! and I’ve learned a lot in this short time. We can do this, Izzy!! 😊🌸

I am glad you were and are able to get emotional support ( as you did by calling some one ) . I wish I had that ( Some one to call ) .

You're a perfectionist which makes things hard on yourself when you feel that you've let yourself, your team or your patients down, totally relate to your outpouring, my last F1 call was in 2004, housemanship was horrible at the start. Lost 10kg by the third month, 5kg in the first. Was chewed up by seniors for really fundamental blunders. Eventually, I somersaulted out of the busiest hospital in March 2004, turned consultant 6 yrs later after passing FRCPath miraculously, felt like a consultoid (imposter syndrome never stops).

girl, despite all the pressure you're experiencing, remember that you're serving a massive favor to humanity! some people don't bother to leave a footprint in their lives, and through this video, you already did place a stamp by helping people relate & not feel alone, which is one of the best ways to cope with daily life situations & move on. remember we aren't robots, we aren't emotionless, the escalated sensations inside of us need to be expressed every once in a while, & that without the sorrow we face in life, we wouldn't be able to feel the joyfulness of happy experiences, the same way we feel the excitement & rush of roller coasters because of the low pace it goes with at first.

All you guys in the medical profession especially within the NHS are heros doing what you do. I used to work shifts as an IT engineer which was bad enough... I've no idea how you guys cope making those sorts of decisions through the haze of exhaustion and stress. Seeing the toll the first 6 months has taken on you, you deserve all the praise in the world for pursuing a career like you have. Wish nothing but success for you in the future and who knows maybe the government will start coughing up some more £££ for you sometime soon as god knows you lot deserve it!

Especially with your insanely good attitude and enthusiasm for your job. Good luck! And thanks again 😁.

Your candid account of transitioning from a medical student to a working doctor truly resonated with me. I remember the initial stress and uncertainty I felt as well, and it's comforting to know that we all share similar experiences in our early medical careers. Keep up the great work and continue growing in confidence and competence!

Thanks for sharing your experience, Sealey.

Oof, Ortho as a first rotation is super rough in terms of workload 🥺 I remember my toughest intern shift being 18 hours long and then having about 3-4 hours of sleep, with an hour drive each way. The stress is really tough. If it’s comforting at all: crying in the bathroom is something that I feel like every doctor, including myself, has done. So you’re not at all alone in this feeling. :) One thing I reflected on during my junior doctor years that served me well, is that you should never worry about where you are at the moment in terms of skill. It’s tempting to think stuff like, “I’m not a good enough doctor”, “I’m going to make mistakes”, and “why can’t I seem to do anything right?” But: don’t worry about where you are, “absolutely” speaking. Just focus on your rate of learning, because it’s the only thing you can change. You mentioned in your video that you almost didn’t feel ready to record this video. Even after being a doctor for 7 years, I still find situations which I don’t feel all that ready for, yet am put in the position of having to deal with them. The thing is, you don’t have to do things perfectly in order to be extremely helpful for people. Just do the best you can. ❤ The last thing: as a fellow content creator/doctor, you’ll eventually figure out the balance between those things too, but don’t be afraid to do things in an unconventional way. Everyone’s gonna want to do stuff like specialise and there will be a lot of pressure there. Just carve your own path from first principles and try not to compare yourself to others. These days personally, I spend 2 days as a GP and the rest of my time on KZread-related stuff, so there is a path forward. 😇

It's called life unless you are a bum like those aristocrats with castles etc that can't afford them and steal off the public purse, this castle landlord stole furlough, it was for your workers not you when you have income from your castle WTF search the title daily mail: SEBASTIAN SHAKESPEARE: Why IS the moneybags boss of The Lady on furlough?

It's okay to feel emotional. Moments like this happen in such a field but always keep moving forward and never give up. In all honesty, you are a huge example for many people and students out there. I have my A levels in a less than a month. Preparation is difficult however you have always helped me push forward as your an example of positivity and happiness in this difficult world. The role you undertake is special and not many people can do what you do, so know that your someone of great capability. My father is a psychiatrist who works for the NHS and he always mentions the hardships that come with being a doctor. Alot mostly stress but I think your someone unique and amazing because you always have that beautiful smile at the end of the day. What matters is that your getting through things really well. Your strong lizzy and no one can change that ❤️. With you every step of the way.

Bless you Izzy! You are already a great success!

Thank you for your hard work. take care of yourself, as well as you do of patients.

I’ve always had a great respect for nurses and doctors, especially in times of war. Their work is so important, taxing and critical to military operations and society in general, yet it’s often overlooked. Much respect to the work your doing and the journey your on. Thoughts and prayers. 🕊️

Hey Izzy I am senior physician, working in Saudi Arabia. I wanna tell you we all physicians suffer such pressure. But still it is worth being a physician- you are serving ailing humanities. God bless

How is it like working in SA? Do you work long hours?? How many days a week? Do they have primary care over there?

Have just started training as an enrolled nurse here in Australia. I am so excited and so anxious to finish my course and begin care within a hospital setting. This video has really helped place things into perspective and I am just wanted to thank you for the amazing work you do

Thank you so much for posting this video, it is rare to see an honest perspective on working in the NHS on social media/online (which is probably the reason why This Is Going to Hurt was a bestseller) and seeing that you, a Cambridge medical graduate, also struggle is really inspirational to me. Thank you again Dr. Izzy!!!

When I was watching your videos, it strikes my memory almost 7 years ago when I started my journey as a doctor. I started my rotation with general medicine and it was hard, felt like crying most of the times but too bad there was no time for that too. 😅It was bearable luckily as I was surrounded by other junior doctor and awesome senior doctors. I definitely agree with u that It was a tough transition from just being medical students who has no responsibilty in patients’ management into someone who has to carry out all the plans or patients’ management would be delayed. in a nutshell, it was indeed a good 2 years of training for us junior doctors in Malaysia with 6 different rotations. Most important thing is the support system from the collegues and superior. It could be a really hectic day but with a good team work, it will be manageable at the end of the day although u feel exhausted and only want to crash your bed at home right after your shift. All the best to you Izzy and may u continue inspiring others to become doctors. lots of love.

Thank you for sharing with us! Take care and God bless you! ❤🙏

Thank you! ❤🙏

Watching this video makes me even more grateful that we have fantastic people like you that are willing to take on the responsibility of saving other people’s lives with all they have. Can’t thank you enough for that!

Thank you so very much for sharing your experiences

As a resident in paediatric for 3 years, I really can get into your shoes. Especially, the first working day, we should become mature immediately and deal with tedious tasks and paperworks. It is quite stressful, as if we are still medical student just few days before. Even the first night shift was also remarkable and memorable. Learning how to order precisely, apply procedure accurately and timely, and absorbed piles of knowledge, somehow make us exhausted. Nonetheless, seeing patients recover and discharge soundly whatever we did is priceless. Every cloud has its silver lining. Hope us get stronger. Best regard from Taiwan

I feel you Izzy! That's exactly how I felt when I was working at a hospital. I constantly felt inadequate and almost illiterate when the senior colleagues discussed the clinical stuff with all of us. And I know you have already toned it down a lot in this video and tried to stay elegant before us, but the truth is we love you no matter what! This is your channel, your home and you can let all your emotions out and we are here for you! It's perfectly fine to be vulnerable xxx

Hi 💋💋💋🤎🤎

I am a RN nursing student and one semester away from graduating. I really enjoyed your video and can relate to some of the area you talked. I am concern and excited at the same time about starting my first job and being independent and not relying on instructors to get direction. Another great aspect of being in healthcare is the teamwork. Weather you are a doctor or a nurse you are under a lot of pressure, long working hours, not having proper break or lunch time, and if you get one you feel that you are neglecting the patient’s care, but what make it easygoing is the teamwork. I wish you the best!

I am so glad I found you. You are brilliant and have such a big heart. You are doing so well. Helping others as best you can. Hopefully, more doctors will be trained and hired to help you with the load on your shoulders. Be well. God bless you. Dana

Aloha from Hawaii Izzy! I believe your destiny is to become a medical school professor. You are not only intelligent, you explain things well, and you naturally have charisma. A career as a professor will provide you the precious time to enjoy life outside of the medical profession, and give you the time to work on creating content which can be utilized by your students. Life is short therefore you must live your life to its fullest.

Firstly, you are doing a fantastic job. No question about that. Yes, it is a big step up transitioning from student to professional. You're only 6 months in and you're working in an incredibly stressful job in the most stressful of situations. You're approaching it in a healthy way. You're already a hero! Experiencing such traumatic moments in people's lives is such a great responsibility. You're growing into it. It takes time and you're doing such a great job. Never stop growing. You CAN deliver a great job! You are doing it already. I applaud you and your colleagues for doing this and also I applaud your courage for sharing in so much detail with us. Thank you for being vulnerable. Thank you for being REAL. Keep on doing what you're doing. You really are a hero! 🤗❤️❤️❤️

you're amazing and the work doctors/nurses and anyone in health care is amazing

Izzy, what a lovely humane human being you are, thank you for showing it!

Omg I watched your study techniques video yesterday and I was like woah you are such and inspiration with your beautiful smile and courage please don’t cry you can do this girl 💪 I believe in you 🥹

I don’t know what to say but I hope everything is going well with you. I have a huge respect to doctors and nurses. I myself have been admitted to hospital and had surgery multiple times. The last time was few months ago when I had to have surgery for my cancer, the doctors and the nurses took a very good care of me. They were extremely gentle and supportive. They helped me went through every difficult phase of my treatment. That helped me a lot when I was in my lowest, physically and emotionally. I’m very grateful for everything they’ve done for me. You and others working in your field are doing a very good job helping people. I know it’s hard sometimes, but I hope you can overcome it. Wish you the best.

Though I have just hit the subscribe button, I have already listened to many of your amazing videos today. This may be your most difficult video but it is the most honest one. Love it!

Thank you for sharing your personal experiences as doctor. You are amazing person and empath and you will be a great doctor.

The sad thing is that many people do not appreciate the doctors' hard work bring involves itself. You are marvelous doctor ❤❤😃😃👍👍 Never give up 😃👋👋❤️❤️

Thanks for sharing your experience

Hi Izzy! And congratulations! I wish you many achievements and be happy. And don't forget to enjoy life!

Your smiles made me love your videos ....and i love how you are still doing it ...

Very open and honest video. Takes a lot of courage to be that introspective and more so to verbalise your inner thoughts . It’s now my 44th year in healthcare as a paramedic but I remember my early years only too well and ‘terrifying’ they felt. Well done on this video 👌👌👍👍

Hi. I imagine that many sick people got better just by seeing your smile. It is an environment full of unexpected events that require quick and accurate responses from you. Each patient must be a different experience with emotions that are hard to describe when they are cared for by an angel like you.

Thank you for sharing your experience! I'm also a junior doc and I can say that it is difficult transitioning from medical student to a doctor. We have to go easy on ourselves. It slowly gets better and that's okay.

Take care of yourself, Izzy. I used to be in your situation when transitioning from fresh grad to full time career. Stay strong, we are all rooting for you!

Watching ur video, I remembered my first year. It was very hard and thought I cannot continue. Actually I place a resignation on the boss’s desk. He persuaded me to take a week off. Coming back, I realized I became a strong person even to help my colleagues. You can make it.

Thank you for such an excellent and honest video!

Thanks so much for sharing this meaningful life experiences Dr. Izzy, you inspire me.

this actually makes me feel better, whenever I feel stressed about my job then I think of some others who have a much more stressful job than me😅
