In this episode, I have the privilege of speaking to Doctor Ali, who experienced severe depression and psychosis during medical school.
He started a blog the depressedmedstudent to share his experiences of mental illness and now gives talks to raise awareness. We discuss his journey and advice for medical students with mental illness and those close to them.
Please note that this episode contains discussion of mental illness, which can be distressing. Please find links for mental health support below. Please take care of yourselves.
