Understanding how our medical culture formed is an important step in unraveling the toxicity that has led to burnout and dissatisfaction, and toward building a sustainable, fulfilling, and joyful profession we can be proud to practice.
Using some of the information in this paper on the historical perspective on obstacles to physicians’ emotional health, this week’s podcast episode takes a deep dive into the origins of some of our problems, and some possible solutions.
The paper’s authors propose three main categories of obstacles that have arisen as part of medical culture:
- Medical exceptionalism: the idea that being a physician is so special that WE have to lose ourselves.
- Medicalization of mental health issues: the idea that physicians with any mental health issues are “sick” and “impaired.”
- Individual responsibility: the idea that the responsibility for dealing with mental or physical health problems, or one’s own wellbeing, resides solely with the individual, and not the institution.
