INSIGHT

INSIGHT

" The one and only thing that the doctors, lecturers or anyone would not be able to teach you is insight." -quoted from what I can say a smart doctor he is. 

No one has ever taught me about the real meaning of insight. Yes, I thought that I had seen the "insight" word somewhere in my psychosis lecture notes. But I don't even know what's the real meaning. 

Yeah, as you know, I am an ordinary Malaysian students, who read just to pass the exam. Not knowing the meaning just memorized everything. 

But, to my own surprise INSIGHT brings a lot of meaning to a life of a patient out there. What does INSIGHT means to a life of a doctor? Why is it so important that it affects the patients life?

When you don't have the INSIGHT you would never ask for help. You always think that you actually know how to solve the problem by yourself. You, yourself are not aware that you do not have the knowledge to solve a particular problem because you want people to always see you as the best. 

NO. That is not the way when you are in this medical field. Do not compete with you colleagues, They are supposed to be your teammates.

" When you really don't know how to handle a situation just go and ask for help. Tell them that you don't know how to handle this patient problem and you don't know how to manage him/her. Don't ever just make an assumption and do whatever you think is right. You are not God. Sometimes, you could not save a life. It is not your fault. You have try your best. Everyone is going to die. It will only differ in the way we die."  -quoted from "smart doctor"

You are putting your patient's life on the line. End up, you regret everything and by then everything is just too late. 

I am also still gaining knowledge and learning everything that I should in order to be the good one one fine day. 

Spread the knowledge. May it benefit each and everyone of us.

Life is trying to teach you something

Hello there! Sorry for the long wait. So, here you go.  Here come an urgent story after a reflection made few weeks ago. I just felt the urge and the need for me to write and share this. As you know, I have been working in a pharmacy for quite sometimes now. It has been around 4 months I guess. Though definitely, I am extremely tired and I got no time to pamper myself, it gave me priceless experience. It’s a place that taught me to appreciate people, trust (this one I’ve got some issue with it too. Trust is basically not easy. It’s build over time so work hard to gain it) and respect people no matter who they are and their social status or educational background.  Initially, it feels like there’s nothing I can gain from working there. Not that I believe in all those supplements can help with diseases. These days, when I felt like I was doing a thing without having a benefit, I would start to do my own reflection. It was like a homework to me. Thank you to that one...

What's new?

How ’s me? Life has been great so far Alhamdulillah. Indeed, when you let go of the painful things that you ’ve been holding on for so long, you’ll be at peace and you’ll be happy. Being dependent on a person is not good, you’ll feel lost once they are away. “What’s meant for you will reach you even if it’s beneath two mountains. What isn’t won’t reach you even if it’s between your two lips.” And so these words heal. Always. Anyway, Let’s start. I have been occupying my holidays doing a few things at once right now. It all started as a volunteer with the Sarawak Children Cancer Society (SCCS) at the hospital. There, I knew a few doctors and pharmacists. These doctors enjoyed dragging me around in their rounds and clinics but I don’t really haha. So, these doctors has got a lot of on hold project for the community that they wanted to arrange but they ain’t got no time for that. Thus, they asked me to arrange it for them. This year, it was about the health fair project 2...

It's for us!

Before I start here, I would like to say I am sorry, that I am not being racist here. No intention like that at all. So here I am sharing with you guys my two cents regarding my childhood and maybe you have had similar childhood experience too. I admit that to be honest, I was raised by parents who would expect the best out of me behind their, “ I don’t mind” words. How do I know? I analyzed, observed and listened. With that, I understand what they wanted actually. Most of my family ( I mean huge family including cousins, aunties and uncle) were placed in a chinese school even from preschool years. Our parents believed that the chinese school has the best education system that of all can offer. Most of my cousins and relatives were able to complete their chinese education until high school except for me. I am an exclusion, I couldn’t fit and survive even during my preschool years. When I was in my psychiatry posting, I remembered that there was a young boy presented with d...
