As pediatricians and healthcare professionals, we dedicate our lives and careers to helping others. Day in and day out, we make sure our patients receive the best care possible to live life to the fullest. Although this can be one of the most fulfilling careers, it can also be physically and mentally demanding.
Listen to a pediatric expert share his story of depression, addiction and recovery
In this episode, Adam Hill, MD, joins us to share his battle with depression, suicidal thoughts and alcoholism.
Dr. Hill is chair of the Palliative Medicine Department at Children's Hospital Colorado and author of "Long Walk Out of the Woods: A Physician's Story of Addiction, Depression, Hope, and Recovery.”
As you listen to the story, ask yourself these questions:
- How often do you take the time to check in with yourself?
- How often do you reflect on your own physical and mental health?
- If you are struggling physically or emotionally, are you taking the time to get help?
