Sharing experiences can be a cathartic and powerful way to help improve mental health. Not only can shared experiences help you to know that you are not alone, they can also inspire and support others in a similar situation.

This mental health and wellbeing resource connects to a number of important ongoing and in-development RCP initiatives.

Understanding how the dimensions of your life are interconnected and your own response to stressful experiences provides the starting point for finding where you currently sit on the wellbeing continuum.

Burnout, work-related stress, mental illness and suicide are increasingly recognised within the physician workforce. This can come at a real personal cost (loss of enjoyment at work, impact on home life, lives lost) and a professional cost (reduced productivity, days lost, careers lost).

This online resource aims to shine a spotlight on the mental health and wellbeing of physicians by opening up the conversation about mental health issues and their impact.
