Looking After Our Own | NEJM My most recent article in ⁦@NEJM⁩ explores a resident physician suicide attempt with minimal support from her program. Our cultural problem needs to be addressed to reduce physicians suicidality. nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NE…

Unhealthy relationships are ruled by anxiety and guilt over letting people down. At best, you're relieved when you don't disappoint. Healthy relationships are guided by joy and gratitude from lifting people up. You get the pleasure of contribution—not the pressure of obligation.
