i recently started my internship at a hospital and my supervisor has turned out to be a total *****. i am a really nice, sensitive person and i dont take harsh criticism too well. i feel that when she is talking to me and she is frustrated, she is really yelling at me and insulting me. anyways, i have talked to her and told her i am a student and i am learning, but i hate the way she criticizes me and pushes me. sometimes she can be nice, but overall she is rude and im starting to really resent her. ive been getting headaches and backaches, i think, from the stress and am starting to dread everyday of work. its my internship, so if i really dont like it i can switch. although the process of switching is arduous and would be an embarassment to me (i hate to quit). so, my question is, am i just going through a rough spot and will i get over it? should i hold my head up high and stick it out as much as its making me depressed? or should i consider copping out for the benefit of my sanity? i dont want to wait too much longer and then have it be too late to turn back. i want to stick it out, but i dont know, truthfully, if i can.
im starting to get panicky and anxious thinking that i will be stuck there for 8 months if things dont improve.Need life advice about a new internship?
Your supervisor probably treats other people the same way.
It might be her personality.
Maybe as time goes by you will not have to associate with her quite as often as now. You will have adjusted to the routine and perhaps be able to work more independently. I hope you will be able to hang in there. It sounds like a valuable experience for you at the hospital.
Best Wishes. I hope it gets easier for you.
