"COVID did something that would never happen for physicians before. It gave permission for #physicians to care about their mental health." - Dr. Masood, founder of PSL. Read more about our reflections of PSL’s growth over the year & its current updates. https://t.co/8wRxaZ6L86

Received a call from her distraught colleague today. Seems to be more frequent nowadays. I always share this support line, you should too.

@Inside_TheMatch This is our goal! Thank you for helping with our mission by spreading the word.

@LeahHoustonMD @HPECid Thank you for speaking out. We hear this from physicians all the time.

@PragueorBrno The person can now call 988 for immediate help from the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline.

[Bryan Carmody @jbcarmody]

This is shameful.

If you want to give bonuses to frontline workers, why would you specifically exclude the resident physicians?

What was some of the best feedback you got as an intern?

[Physician Support Line @PhysicianLine]

We have been experiencing some technical difficulties this past week, so if anyone’s call to PSL was missed and not returned, please feel free to call again! The issue is resolved now.

[Physician Support Line @PhysicianLine]

A mental health check in - a lot of things have been going on in the news, in our personal lives and in our careers, particularly with #Match2022 results out. Give us a call if the urge to vent feels overwhelming.

[Physician Support Line @PhysicianLine]

@PedsPlntsPepprs After all of your hard work and dedication, comments like these can be very discouraging indeed. If you or any doctor/trainee experiencing this would like to debrief with a peer who gets it, PSL is here for you.

[Physician Support Line @PhysicianLine]

For those going through #Match2022 and are either feeling uplifted or discouraged with the process, take a moment to look back at your journey as a growing physician and congratulate yourself on your accomplishments thus far.
