There are many physicians who go through chronic health issues at least once in their lifetime. This is usually because of work-related stress.

There were many studies conducted which concluded that many people go through on-set work-related stress. People who were surveyed demonstrated rates of chronic disease higher than the national average of conditions.

However, the most astonishing part of the surveys was that physicians weren’t comfortable demonstrating and talking about their systems with other people.

How To Overcome Hurdles?

Due to a lot of work tension some physicians also start losing their hair and consider going for a hair transplant surgery.

But like this, there is no solution available for all the problems. All the physicians who are dealing with stress need to ask themselves about the level of satisfaction with their jobs, their goals and what did they expect for future. If they are working in a job that doesn’t brings fulfilment, if they are striving to meet other’s expectations then the chances are very high for their stress.

If people believe that medicine is not the right option for them then what is it that is right for them?

They also wish to pursue their interests but are always afraid of the risk of embarrassment, as they feel friends and family would come up taunting them for wasting so many years of their life.

There is a fear of getting criticized for wasting training, resources and hard-earned money. Due to all the pressure from friends and family people conclude that yes, being a physician was what they really wanted.

But with time they do realize that no, it’s not true. However, it’s not like there are no advantages of being a physician. There are numbers factors.
