    👋🏻 Hey everyone! In this video, I wanted to be a bit more open and vulnerable to tackle a topic which has become increasingly more important to me - Mental Health in Medicine.
    For all the amazing parts of the job, I think the toll on mental health can be a particularly difficult one to deal with. I talk about some of the difficult aspects of the job, as well as what techniques and strategies I use to help me manage them.
    I hope you find this useful particularly if you're an aspiring doctor or starting your medical job soon. Have a great day ☺️
    Thank you so much for watching, I'll see you in the next one ✌🏻

    I am a student pilot and the past year has been quite tough. I was studying for EASA exams, had to move to a totally new city to save some money and in March my mom was diagnosed with ovarian cancer stage 3B. To keep my mental health in check, I found that exercising and/or playing sports for an hour or so really helped me. I try to stay away from screens (iPhone, TV, computer, tablet, ...) because eventually i feel more drained after watching a movie or just scrolling the night away.
    Thank you for sharing your experiences and study methods. They have been a great help and inspiration. Looking forward to the next episodes :-) Take care!

    Wow! Thanks for that. I'm a medical student in my 3rd year (in Spain), and every time I watch any of your videos, I either feel inspired, motivated, or have the sensation that I'm evolving as a person (in terms of learning about the importance of reflecting).
    Pd: I would love to watch more vlogs of your daily routine, or you just working at the hospital. :)

Learn to keep a bit away let you more mental capacity and belive us that patients do not need so much attention but effectivenees from our doctors.
    Thanks again, your vídeos always motivate me to study!!!❤

    hey Nasir! Thank you for sharing this, I think it is so important that you have raised this topic. I am currently in high school and it is very relevant, I was wondering, do you think you could make a quick study with me please! It doesn't have to be long, just whenever you study please set it up. It would help A LOT! Thank you!!

  • @skyef527
    @skyef527 6 місяців тому +2

    Tough topic, but thank you for putting into words what we deal with everyday as doctors and how mentally, emotionally and physically draining it can be.
    I think this often does not get talked about and people outside healthcare are rarely aware of it. This can lead to an expectation of healthcare professionals to be perfect, to never make any mistakes and never struggle.
    When I started working as a doctor I had major self doubts, noticing myself seriously struggle but beating myself up about it at the same time. Realizing that everybody struggles really helped.

    Hello, I am a new subscriber here for about a week or so. I have watched a lot of your videos. They are very interesting and useful. They helped me overcome boredom and fear while studying for my final exams in high school. I am very afraid. And I'm nervous because these are the exams that will determine whether I will become a doctor or not...so I'm here to watch a video, study with me so that it gives me some motivation...seeing you practicing the profession that I love makes me very happy,It's like I see myself doing that 🥹✨❤ Finally, I have a question. I noticed that you study while standing. How do you do this?😮
    Big love for you from Iraq ❤❤

    Have you heard of Dr. Joe Dispenza and His work? He has some incredible books like
    1. Breaking the habit of being yourself
    2. Your are the placebo
    3. Becoming supernatural
    Also i think using typing as a journaling method is okay but i suggest on days when you feel extremely sad, angry, frustrated or heavy try writing with pen on loose sheet of paper and then when you are done just burn the paper and flush the ash in the toilet. See how it feels!
    Best wishes to you🙂

    I watched your videos and I observed that there is something missing which is reducing the reach of your video, that missing thing is editing because editing is the one thing which can make the video viral or fail, that is why I want it. I don't need your help but I know that you can't help me without trusting like this.
    That's why I will give you a sample video, give your video then I will make it the best by doing subtitles, glow color grading etc.
    Can I get a chance to work with you?
