Discussion Why are the statistics so high of doctors suicide?

[Cryptonite]

Patients looking on Google is the worst thing doctors know.

You have to trust their knowledge.
They didn't become doctors by chance.

I'm sorry things didn't work out for the best.

Genocide? I don't believe the vaccine is safe either but genociide? Is there any more info on this?

You might be surprised that the general narrative that doctors do know things is entirely wrong. Maybe you're lucky that you haven't had any adverse experience, but that's the facts.

You might be also surprised to know who gave me the first correct diagnosis of my disease. It was me, from Google. After visiting 10 doctors unsuccessfully.

The only reason why doctors hate googling patients is because of their fragile egos. Average googling patients will know about their disease much more than most doctors just in a couple of hours of googling.

I know people who are medical students. Do you know how little they learn about each disease? It's literally a couple of sentences, even if they're specialized.

I agree with you in the fact that there are alot of horrible doctors out there and that's why diversity is needed. If they only gatekeep to rich spoiled brats who only want it for the reputation and money(which comes way later on) and don't even need it cuz their parents are rich, they are gonna most likely lack the empathy. As for the the desensitization.......i think it's a bunch of crap and bullshit. A doctor, atleast a good one should be able to feel just as much sympathy for one patient on to the other. If not then they are in it just for the glamour obviously and couldn't give two shits about their patients. If I had made it as a doc I would treat all my patients ( the ones who aren't assholes with kindness as all the others but you don't find many people like me now a days. Infact people like me are needed in the field but this sick society ruined it for me. What actually happens is that we get numb to the abuse and corruption where you are literally fighting insurance companies so they would pay for your patient's meds and treatment. You get numb to the fact that you just can't do anything to change it. But they should never be numb to being courteous to innocent patients that need help. The bad ones ofcourse didn't give a fuck from the start. When I worked in healthcare I was just wanting to help and there were so many nasty patients yelling and cursing at me along with horrible coworkers.......how do you think I will react to that? My passion died because they don't deserve that kindness from me cuz I just kept being stepped on.

This shows it is unfortunately not about doctors being terrible as individuals. The whole system is entirely broken. At least you can tell it from your own experience, because majority of people still believes the narrative that medicine is respectable. It is not. It is one hell of a mess, nothing works properly, nobody cares.
