Episode Synopsis "Talking mental health with psychiatrist Dr. Ajeet Singh"
Today I met with Dr. Ajeet Singh, Deakin Medical School Psychiatrist to talk about medical student's most common presentations. We touched on why students burn out and how to prevent it. We also talked about the most common psychological types of medical students (namely narcissists and approval seekers) and what do they in particular struggle with the most in medical school. Dr. Ajeet provided some great tips for medical students on how to reduce stress and live free from it. In his own example, he shared the pathway in medicine and his own successes and failures with mental health. I hope you enjoy this episode! Personally, I found it so useful especially now as we approach exam season :)
