Intern year. It’s the chaotic rite of passage where sleep goes to die, mistakes get made in real time, and everyone’s faking confidence until they figure it out, or break. This week, I’m sharing the moments that defined mine: the terrifying first night on call, what it’s like to be handed a pager when you still don’t know where the bathrooms are, and how that year almost broke me… but also built me. Whether you're a med student bracing for the leap or just love a good disaster story with a heartbeat, this one’s for you.

Takeaways:

That first on-call moment where “doctor” suddenly becomes real.
Why every intern has a “panic page” story—and mine might top the list.
The hidden emotional toll no one warns you about.
Intern year is both terrifying and formative… and yes, it gets better.
Tips for surviving (or at least laughing about) the chaos.
