Medical school is hard. We are constantly told that we need to check various boxes in order to “succeed” as a medical student, but is it really worth crying at 3 AM, fully clothed in your bathtub, eating your stress food of choice?
In this episode, we are joined by Nicole and Ana, two medical students from the Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine and co-hosts of the Impersonating Doctors podcast. We talk about everything from media representations of doctors, to maintaining your mental health in medical school, to finding your own lane in medicine. We hope this conversation brings you as much joy as it did us!
Pro-tip: Check us out on their podcast, too!
Clean-Up:
At 18:02, Ana says that memories are consolidated in N-REM stage 3 which is incorrect. It’s actually in REM. (She formally apologizes to her psych preceptor.)
