Share Your Full Moon Stories

Next full moon is right around the corner. We all know that it gets crazy during a full moon. Share your full moon experience. Do you have any full moon stories to share?

I refuse to believe in full moons anymore. I have learned that the general public is ******* crazy no matter what the lunar cycle holds.

It feels like every day is a full moon. 

Specializes in cardiac-telemetry, hospice, ICU.

Previously stable patient has a restless night. The morning comes and he becomes non-responsive, thrashing around and kicking caregivers. Orders come for ativan, then Haldol. This only slows him down a little. He 'takes out' a sitter and has to be restrained. Labs, Ct, etc show nothing. Two days later as the full moon wanes, he returns to baseline and remembered nothing. Go figure, made for two he**ious days for us.

I used to work at a place where it seemed like everyday was a new day on hell.
