- Almost half of all doctors in the UK say their mental health is now even worse than during the pandemic - as they struggle with overwork, scarce resources and rising demand from patients.

According to the Medical Protection Society, some doctors feel they are 'lurching from crisis to crisis' with little respite.
NHS England says it has pledged £2.3 million to improve staff wellbeing across seven regions.
But for exhausted medics, the toll on their psychological health is becoming one burden too many.

I think everyone's mental health is worse after the pandemic
It’s almost like having a government who’s driven our public services and economy into the ground and expects us to pay for it by living on lower and lower wages while they hand out tens of billions of tax payers money to their friends and relatives is a bit depressing
@@WhichDoctor1Dont forget the illegal parasites that get treated better than indigenous folk. They dont struggle with free inhouse healthcare and all inclusive stay
@@WhichDoctor1hahahaha spot on 👌 we have to start doing our own thing. We can't depend on these clowns any longer
They should discuss their complaints with a receptionist and make an appointment to see an official. The telephone line will open at 8am but they need to be quick as all appointments will be taken within the first ten seconds. Prior to that they must first go online and complete a 10 page e-consult to see if the computer grants them permission to telephone the receptionist.
its awful, but this is obviously the fault of the government. doctors dont want this just as much as patients.
He needs his PCP to give him a referral to a counselor for CBT- Cognitive Behavior Therapy to learn coping skills for depression and anxiety. It might take 6 months for an appointment!🥱
Mind Begs the Question:
Hitler - blamed Nations Failures on Religious Minority
If Politicians/Govts - blame Nations Failures on Vulnerable/Migrants
Practicing Hitlers Mein Kampf,no?
Our e-consult form is so long that they forgot to add the bit to request repeat prescriptions. Good luck trying to get through to a jolly helpful receptionist for that!
Of course it could all be a cunning plan to make us get private health care🤔 can I have a National insurance rebate then??
Same in the States. Offering Healthcare workers access to well-being "hubs" is a slap in the face. They did that here and it backfired. Give them proper patient ratios, more paid time off, and higher pay. Stop making them feel guilty if they can't work over 40 hours a week.
NO WAY ! They are over paid snowflakes. No one put a gun to their head & forced them into healthcare. If they don't like they should go do something else. Lazy bums.
They're criminals

They already get more time off than any other worker. They get around 45 days holiday a year. Most only work 3 days a week anyways. 😂
@@HumanBeingsRThinkingBeings Also begs the question how you became such a huge pratt !
We could try clapping again
MY GP used to always say to me that human beings are the most greediest and nastiest creatures on Earth
You needed a doctor to tell you that ? 😊
He would know 🤣😂 💉for cash lost their souls 🤦♂️
You need a new GP!🥺

@@colleenpeck6347 Nope I do my own research.
Welcome to the My Mental Health is Worse Now Club, Doctors.
I dont need a wellness hub, or mindfulness or resilience training. I need to work in a system that isn't so broken it has to teach staff how to cope working in a broken system. The last decade of Tory rule has been a disaster for the health service.
Exactly, and the only chance you get to go to these wellness hubs is on your break, if you even get one. Total waste of money, the NHS needs to start valuing staff.
I completely agree. This government has been on a mission to destroy the NHS so that we all accept private medicine. The American health insurance companies are desperate to move in and make a fortune for themselves.
This government is also happy to blame everyone but themselves for the mess we are in and expecting people to work well in appalling conditions is beyond cruel.
@@zen7349 actually I quit
@@zen7349 I'd argue that the smart thing to do is make it so that intensive care nurses aren't so miserable that they quit
Just imagine how the patients feel then…
@@zen7349they can’t
Do you think doctors and their families aren’t patients too?
@@Bringon-dw8dx the families of doctors and nurses know a nurse or a doctor who can help, go figure
@@lpmlearning2964 privately maybe, but within the NHS that’s not how it works.
@@Bringon-dw8dx the families of NHS doctors and nurses don’t have a nurse and doctor in the family? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
UK life expectancy is much higher than that of the US. NHS is still a much better deal to the working class than private health care.
I called my doctor today to ask for help with my mental health , her question to me was “ what’s your expectations? “ I broke down crying
That’s a valid question in therapy… what do you need help with? Wjat are you struggling with? Mental health is different to physical health in that you have to say what the issue is and what help you want. A therapist won’t know that just by looking at you
How do they think the rest of societies 'mental health' is ??? Always about the medical professionals !
Indeed,and they were the ones that broke their own vows to do no harm via the 💉,traitors to humanity,sold their souls for cash 🤢🤮
Which is interesting, I often go to private clinics. Nearly all of those doctors also work for the NHS 🧐
More doctors or fewer patients.
Choose.
Less doctors and more mid range healthcare staff.
Encouraging playing sports from a young age can also prevent diabetes as well as depression.
Yeah thats great if you dont live in a rough area with constant knife crime and terror attacks, the worlds changed since the 90s
Were no white doctors stressed?
Im the same , we had help during the pandemic, had extra staff and agency staff .. now its a shi1 show.
The GP clinic need to bring in an operations manager personal, that only deals with the smooth running of the practice.
Not give the responsibility to the head practitioner, who is probably burning out from juggling patients and overwhelmed staff.
Eventually, it's going to catch up on them and service levels will be compromised .
So I hear the staff shortages - by how much? The number of vacant positions should be easy to find out with computerized HR databases. I was a little suprised that that didn't come out. And is it that there are more sick people in the UK?
The rota’s I’ve worked on have always been sat at between 20-50% vacancies. One particularly bad rota would sit people down at the start of their shift everyday and ask if they could just work a few extra hours after they finish because there was nobody to cover the night and there was nobody to cover within the entire region.
With Nurses and Doctors being laid off due to the mandates and how they where treated during the Pandemic I don't blame them.
With the Censorship and not being able to speak out about trends they see now.
And with massive backlogs due to the Pandemic and pressures of the job, it's just a mess right now.
Parrot more plague rat disinformation.
Why isn't the UK reforming its healthcare system? I don't live in Europe so I don't understand how your system works.
We have a Hugh increase in stillbirths and misscariages and in metal heath ..and of course in sudden deaths.....we all wonder why?
vaccine induced
If you write the truth here Google and RUclips will delete it
Our health industry IS RUN BY CROOKS
Oh of course its got nothing to do with the 1.4 million lazy gits that "work" in the NHS ? 😅
Genocide
Their salaries are too high, most don’t deserve that pay… absolutely useless and most don’t want to refer or help with meaningful medicine
My 80k a year at minimum heart bleeds
Any excuse.
UNHAPPY DOCTORS
Probably shouldn't of murdered all those pensioners then and injected their patients with something that no-one knows the long term side effects of. No sympathy they belong in prison.
Shut up antivaxer
The gallows.
Eat more Ivermectin.
@@userI3I2 citizens arrest them
Why do people keep hinting at me "Is there anything that you need to let go?". If you lot are hinting at my other part of me (my female side), I say to you that me letting that part of me is go is NEVER going to happen. Just saying that's all.
We need a government that cares about the people of this country. The NHS has been consistently underfunded and the Conservatives responsible for that should hang their heads in shame.
Our Doctors are overworked and BBC is taking 7 Billion Pounds a year , 4 billion from tax payer , paying some of their staff min 100k 400 k 500k £ .Makes me sick . Under funded NHS could benefit from 7 billion Pounds extra per year. 😢😮
The NHS has 1.4 million employees & gets 40 pence out of every tax pound spent in the UK so they are not under funded or under staffed ! they are just LAZY.
I worked in NHS as a nurse then midwife in the 70s and 80s. Student nurses were the workforce then and we were always short staffed. It became worse when students became uni based and were no longer counted in the workforce. Bad move.
A ridiculous take on the situation, do better Heather.
So, is this the excuse to cover their failings for why they are NOT actually helping people who ALREADY suffer from mental ill health, because I've had PTSD for over 4 years, yet they won't acknowledge it despite 12 other people telling me i have!!!🤔
Not having enough people, enough money or enough resources to do their job is a pretty good reason for not being able to do their job
Yes Jack, this is all about you.
@@WhichDoctor1well said
staff leave becauce of money and bad boss.not becauce of too much work
The whole NHS has not recovered from Covid all the staff needed boosts in recruitment etc . but instead while Covid was still having a huge impact in the NHS staff the government treated the whole thing like it hadn't happened.
Under staffed ? The woke NHS employs 1.4 million staff & 40pence from every tax pound is spent on it. The truth is the NHS is badly managed by the NHS !
Brexit means 350 million weekly to the NHS ah ah ah
They should read about Tatars Rulers, they will get better for sure. Let them read about Timur Ibn Taragai Barlas ai, about Girai ai, about Sultan Sulaiman Qanuni & his mom ai.
Most GPs only work 3 days a week. I wish I worked as hard
And with about £100000 salary too. GPs need to stop whining and start giving adequate health advice.
@@JDGuitar82exactly,I’m a carer and get a pathetic amount ffs 🤦♂️
3 days a week in the GP practice doing general appointments (so that’s 36 hours), then most will run clinics the general public don’t know about because they require referrals or are follow up clinics (so that’s say 6 hours on a Saturday morning), and then they do a session teaching at the local medical school and are involved in education/leadership/management meetings (say 6 hours a week).
That’s already 48 hours a week, before you add on overtime.
@@JDGuitar82start on 68k
@@briaredpath9386if you are genuinely jealous of what GPs do you are more then welcome to go to medical school for 5-6 years and do your 5 years training for 68k
why not taly health of men that are being payed to be tallying ?
its like saying we will take your +adds but we cant do division ÷ has we want it all and hall so wont divide you a cat of you that should allready be yours !!!!
will get more staff
Scrap the NHS. Privatise and sell off the lot... Issue citizens with health credits/ tokens to spend at a provider of their choice.
It worked great with the water companies and trains didn't it.
@@backupinit I've never seen so much new railway rolling stock in my life on the approach to Euston
@@jameslavery3060 Oh yeah. A good percentage of it paid for entirely by the taxpayer.
Railway privatisation has run at a massive subsidy loss since about 2008. We pay for crappy service, crappy prices and crappy infrastructure, and then they pretend that they pay it all.
Watching the oceans boil, the street lights melting, countries burning en mass, and you compare it to the pandemic. It's a bit difficult to acknowledge a more relevant anxiety enducing point!
Greed is killing us at this point as there's nobody behind the wheel as we narrowly avoid one end or another.
Humanity can't make up its mind on which way to go out, it seems.
Redact alert 🚨🚨🚨
True.
Yes, thats because the Dr's all know whats been done
Yes, the doctors know about the conspiracy of impossible scale and scope, involving every relevant health professional, scientist, and politician on Earth, aside from a tiny handful of discredited cranks.
Why do we keep hiring and training mental people!
John Lennon was actually right by saying that Government is being run by lunatics for their insane agendas.
No one is except from mental health issues. The stress of healthcare In The Uk is enough to make anyone mentally unstable
why is it called (men)taly ???
well fair state is what it is liberty taking and life taking for locking 1 down who can only offer life and give life would be the answers and question of who god is but you wont anwser that for a marked man is he being marked in the first place
So they mental state was just fine when they were dancing for TikTok in almost empty hospitals
Amen!!! Zero sympathy for those greedy lying bastards.
When you can't comprehend a world more complicated than a light switch.
They can always go and do something else
Don’t be surprised if they do. But don’t expect a health service to be available for you when you need it free at the point of delivery.

The people of Britain get the NHS they deserve. This is what happens when you vote Tory for the last 13 years then vote for Brexit.
Yawn
Good luck with Liebour when they import millions more to replace you- try getting a doctor's appointment then!
🎉nhsstaffl stlives🎉
Maybe because doctors these days do nothing but sing from the hymn sheet these days and actually have no talent as doctors.
Couldn’t agree more
Excuses excuses for a lot of people using mental health to get benefits! I am not sayng that all of them does i am saying that alot of of people never have stress because they live in a good life and the great reset comes they dont know how to handle hard work. The Britsh have it so easy in the last 2 decades... this is why the imigrants from the poor countries are thriving it is because a little hard work in the Great Britain is like a wlak in the park to them.
Your a doctor that can speak from experience? You ever witness things doctors have? Work long hours in hospital?
I hope they arnt expecting any sympathy.....
Doctor do t want your sympathy. They just want you to vote for a government that actually funds the nhs
Ah because that would be human
