Trigger warning: this podcast discusses what it is like to be a Doctor from training to working in the NHS. At the time or recording a colleague of The Secret Psychiatrist was stabbed by one of their patients who is severely unwell. Our aim is to not add to the stigma around mental health but unfortunatley violence from patients towards NHS staff is a reality regardless of the mental health. Doctors struggle and the demands placed upon them is enormous. Keep up the good work The Secret Psychiatrist we really appreciate all that you do and wish we could do more to help you.
