I don't see it as a form of coping tho. Because what are they coping with? I'll say it's just a way to ignore and try to deny our mortality. With the inevitability of death looming over us, it reminds us that there'll come a time when we'll be no longer. And people don't like that
Well done you will be an amazing nurse. But remember we are only human. We are allowed to cry, there will always be patients who get under our skin. As we get older our understanding and opinions change. Wishing you all the best in your career!
I love this! Thank you for talking about death. Having worked as a nurse for 21 years some of that in palliative care I get to see death from a different angle. Death is a part of life and it becomes more frightening if we donβt talk about it. I can no longer say things like βpassed away, passed over, he lost his wife etc.β He or she died, sugar coating it makes it confusing. As an audhder I have always struggled with this use of language.
I'm glad you could relate to it from your perspective. And I'm also studying nursing, three more years to finish tho. I know for sure I'm going to be witnessing a lot of those, so it's easy to accept that now and understand that such is life and there's nothing we can do about it.
Why am I the only one bothered that you ruined the movie?!!
I offered an apology tho π
People not talking about death seems like a form of coping mechanism.
Most people donβt want to think about the sorrows.
Just like the way talking about sex seems like a bad thing in our society.
