✅You have thoughts of self-harm or suicide.

Resources Available:

👉Counseling Services: Most medical schools offer mental health resources, including counseling and support groups.

📌Takeaway: Don’t hesitate to seek professional help. You deserve support and guidance to navigate your mental health.

🧐Day 1: Understanding Anxiety

😟Anxiety is a natural response to stress, characterized by feelings of worry, apprehension, and fear. For medical students, the demands of rigorous coursework, clinical rotations, and the pressure to succeed can amplify these feelings.
🧠It's essential to recognize that anxiety can manifest in various forms, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Social Anxiety Disorder, and Panic Disorder.

Key Points:
📍Causes: Anxiety can be triggered by academic pressures, personal issues, or even social situations. Understanding the root causes can help you address them effectively.

📍Physiological Response: When faced with a stressful situation, the body enters a "fight or flight" mode, increasing heart rate and releasing stress hormones. This response, while useful in danger, can be overwhelming in daily life.

📌Takeaway: Recognizing anxiety as a common experience among medical students can help create a supportive environment. You're not alone in your feelings.✨
