Best Psychiatrist in Mymensingh - Book Appointment

I Look After Patients All Night, Then Lie Awake Replaying My Mistakes

She Knew Night Duty Without a Long Explanation

The psychiatrist let me lay out the whole thing in order. She asked how my shifts run, when the dread started, and what my days at home look like. She asked about my family, my health, and any earlier time I had felt worn down.

My Broken Daytime Sleep Sat at the Centre

She said my sleep and my shifts could not be pulled apart. We talked about how I rest after night duty. If anything in my body is adding to this, she said, another doctor should look at that side first.

The Replaying Would Not Stop in a Week

She made no promise that the dread would lift by the next roster. We would sit at regular gaps and talk things through in sittings. Maybe sleeping through one whole morning. Maybe reaching the ward gate without my stomach tightening.

My Medicine Follows Her Schedule, Not My Rota

When she wrote a medicine for me, she set its timing around my duty hours. I follow that plan exactly as written. A few easier nights do not give me leave to drop it suddenly on my own. If it makes me feel unwell, I tell her, and she rethinks it.

My Uncle's Trouble Belonged to a Different List

The same week, my uncle was told a painful lump in his belly needed an operation. His problem was of the body, so he searched the general surgeons listed for Mymensingh. Mine sits in the mind, and my list was another one.

I sleep in the daytime. Does that change anything in how she works?

It shapes the plan, she said. My rest after night duty is part of the problem we are working on. She does not ask me to live by a day worker's clock.

Will anything I tell her reach the hospital where I work?

No. What I say in her room stays there. My family hears something only if I agree to it first.

Could something in my body be part of why I feel this way?

It could, and she said so herself. That is why she asked about my health and my earlier reports. If she suspects a bodily cause, she points me to the right doctor before anything else.

Will the dread before duty ever stop fully?

She would not promise that. She said it can grow smaller and easier to carry. We judge it by how my shifts and my sleep actually go.

My mother wants to sit in once. Is that allowed?

Yes, if I say yes. She may join part of a sitting, and only that part. What I tell the doctor alone stays between us.

What if a thought of harming myself comes and I cannot push it away?

That is not something to wait out between sittings. I must tell someone close to me straight away and reach a hospital the same day. The same goes if night after night brings no sleep at all and my mind keeps racing. Or if fear takes hold so hard that washing and eating become impossible.
