Stress can be a positive motivator. But when learner stress goes unmanaged, it can easily lead to anxiety, depression, risk of dropping out, harmful physical effects, substance abuse, and even suicide.

Join us virtually as we walk through the following:   

  • Understand the good, bad, and necessity of stress
  • Differentiate the cause and symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression
  • Address impostor phenomenon that frequently increases stress in medical learners and physician residents
