Worn out Wednesday

I'm tired. I feel like by the end of every day I am exhausted. I spend the day learning and interacting all day and the introvert in me is ready for some alone time by the end of the day. I just want to read a book and get lost in my own thoughts. I guess I better get used to it though, this is just a tiny bite of what the rest of my career will be like.
Today had a weird ending. My last patient of the day was a young woman who I saw and felt bad for her by the end of our talk. I was in the middle of presenting her to the dr when the office staff said that she just got up and left. I was shocked and felt so terrible that somehow I was the cause of her meltdown. It was so silly and it ended up totally having nothing to do with me, but it makes me nervous for the future. I wouldn't want for any of my patients to ever feel like they need to storm out of my office after talking to me. I know I'm not the most compassionate person in the world but I hope a situation would never be so misinterpreted again. It kind of bummed me out but I'm getting over it soon.
