PagesbyBukky …You can never be too overdressed or over educated – Oscar Wilde
Hello darlings, I trust we are all doing fine and I am sorry for not putting up a post in a while. My last blog post was on Valentine’s day HERE. A lot has happened within a short period. This is not an outfit post but an update on what I have been up to lately.
Like most of y’all know, I am a Medical Doctor and came home last year July to write the licensing exam to be able to practice in Nigeria. Writing the exam was not just the end but marked a new beginning in my life. I talked about the exam HERE so you can check it out.
After passing the exam and doing the induction, it is expected to go through a compulsory one year hospital work Doctors do upon graduation. It is called housemanship/ house job/ internship. All you do during this one year is rotate through the four main departments (Pediatrics, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Surgery and Medicine) for three months each. Getting a place to do this housemanship in Nigeria is very difficult, the competition is high and there are limited spaces which makes some people stay at home for a year or more. I am just glad and grateful to God that he gave me a space. I started on the 11th of Feb even though my letter was ready a week before I just took out time to put myself together. I wasn’t ready! Currently working at General Hospital Lagos in Marina. So far so good, it has not been bad. My first and present rotation is Medicine and was really excited when my letter was ready because it’s not as stressful compared to pediatrics or obs/gyn and I love it.
It has been challenging because there are so many new things to learn and trying to fit into the whole naija Medical system since I didn’t study here. It’s only a matter of time and I would definitely learn on the job. No more long hour’s of sleep or waking up at unnecessary times lol.. discipline has come in. Funny enough, my sleep pattern adjusted and I get to work very early yay!.
I miss shooting for the blog but will definitely work on something asap. That’s it for now people if anything changes, I will keep you updated.
Thank you for visiting and see you in my next post. Cheers!!

Depression can be a difficult and challenging experience, but there are several steps you can take to help prevent it:
Stay connected with others: Maintaining social connections and relationships can help reduce feelings of isolation and loneliness, which are risk factors for depression. Stay in touch with friends and family, join social groups or clubs, and consider volunteering or helping others in your community.
Take care of your physical health: Engage in regular exercise, eat a healthy and balanced diet, and get adequate sleep. These activities can help boost mood and reduce stress levels.
Manage stress: Practice stress management techniques such as mindfulness, deep breathing, or progressive muscle relaxation. These techniques can help reduce feelings of anxiety and prevent them from developing into depression.
Set realistic goals: Setting achievable goals can help boost self-esteem and a sense of purpose. Make sure your goals are realistic and attainable, and break them down into smaller steps to make them more manageable.
Challenge negative thoughts: Cognitive behavioral therapy techniques can help challenge and reframe negative thoughts and beliefs. Practice positive self-talk and challenge negative self-talk when it arises.
Seek professional help: If you are struggling with depression or feel that it may be developing, seek professional help from a mental health professional. They can provide personalized treatment options such as therapy or medication.
Remember, depression is a common and treatable condition. With the right strategies and support, you can reduce your risk of developing depression and improve your overall well-being.
