This book explores the important topic of mental health and related problems among physicians, including trainees. The all-too-common human response of suffering in silence and refusing to seek help for professional and personal issues has ramifications for physicians who work in safety-sensitive positions, where clear-headed judgment and proper action can save lives. Problems covered include burnout, disruptive and unprofessional behaviors, impaired performance, traumatic stress, addiction, depression and other mood disorders, and suicide. The authors of this work include psychologists, psychiatrists, and other physicians who diagnose and treat a range of patients with stress-related syndromes. Among their patients are physicians who benefit greatly from education, support, coaching, and treatment. The book s content is organized into three parts with interconnecting themes. Part I focuses on symptoms and how physicians problems manifest at the workplace.
