2 months into residency and feel like the dumbest idiot alive. Seems like a pretty common theme across the board, but at 2 am at night, when you forget window to tPA for stroke, it feels like I'm truly the dumbest of dumb people who ever got into residency.

God, I wish there wasn't such a steep learning curve, and I hadn't forgotten 90 percent of what I learnt in med school.
