Or, alternatively,
When you regularly assess pts using mental health questionnaires that you know you would fail, you end up feeling a bit saddened with the self-awareness. Sometimes I wish I could tell them, hey, it’s ok. I’m right there with you, we’ll get through this. But I can’t, because I’m supposed to be the normal one giving the survey, and I can’t be sad or sick. I’m supposed to be helping you, but then you can’t even tell that I empathize because I’m not allowed to, so you just feel that I don’t care and you’ll never know that I feel your pain with you
