People mean well when they say, “just do your best,” or “as long as you’ve given it your best shot,” but as a crippling perfectionist, my best never feels good enough 🙃 anyone got any advice for self sabotaging? I’d rather fail because I didn’t try than try hard and fail...

thanking all my lucky stars I got North West!!!! Now for the tricky part of hospital ranking! #ukfpo #MedStudentTwitter

Hey #MedTwitter , me again😇 Pls tag your favourite doctors / students/ role models to help & answer these: 1. When did you decide you wanted to be a doctor? 2. Why did you want to be a doctor? 3. Are the reasons still the same now? or have your priorities/ motives changed ?

Interested in psych? Want to find out more about how to get into the specialty and what it can offer you? We Are LSCft Medical Education are hosting their annual "Spring into Psychiatry" event virtually this year! Can not recommend this event highly enough! Lancaster PsychEd Uni of Manchester Psychiatry Society (UoM) Royal College of Psychiatrists

feel like we should have some sort of speed-dating event to try and choose hospitals, picking based on a list of tracks and hearsay makes for a difficult decision - especially when it determines where you'll be for the next 2y! #ukfpo #foundationapplication #MedStudentTwitter

what is it about OSCEs that makes you analyse them in such minute detail you’ve convinced yourself you’ve failed?! #MedTwitter #medicalfinals

booked to go to Simon Rogan's terrace pop-up at Henrock in a couple of weeks, and it is the post-exam treat I never knew I needed - drooling at the menu as we speak!

still in shock that my final exam of Med school (hopefully!!) is tomorrow!! 7 years later and it’s nearly all done! The relief is palpable!! #medstudentfinals #MedStudentTwitter

Delighted to announce that we've created an education package on #eatingdisorders for medical schools and foundation training programmes, in collaboration with @NHS_HealthEdEng & RCPsych Eating Disorders Faculty and supported by GMC It's free and available now here: beateatingdisorders.org.uk/training-cpd/m…

I am so pleased to see this positive step in the right direction. Holistic care and support for mums (and dads) from the very first days of a new baby's life will pay huge dividends for families, communities, and ultimately entire generations. bbc.co.uk/news/health-56…

So proud of myself for recovering from burn out last year and going on to smash my final exams! ✨ FY1 here I come! (Blowing my own trumpet but sometimes you just have to!!) #MedStudentTwitter

The longer I work in psychiatry The more I realise that psychological, social & structural factors such as poverty, unemployment, abuse, neglect & discrimination Are major contributors to people developing a mental health crisis

calling all social prescribers !! please drop me a message if you’d like to be involved in an upcoming event with Uni of Manchester Psychiatry Society (UoM) in early June!! we want to spread the word about #socialprescribing with medical students!!

I think one thing that is never discussed enough with medical students, people considering medicine and the public. Is that we genuinely, as juniors, can not plan our life more than 4 months in advance(max) By the end of a rotation, sometimes not more than 3-4 weeks. It's tough
