A concerned parent worries my saying #Schizophrenia is "construct", not "disease", may reduce its being taken seriously enough. Let's be clear: #Schizophrenia can cause horrible suffering to patients/families. Untreated too often leads to severe incapacity/homelessness/or jail.

To avoid DSM reification/stigma: No patient "has schizophrenia" or "is schizophrenic"- lazy/misleading/reductionistic terms Proper usage: Patient "meets criteria for schizophrenia" Why? Mental disorders are constructs- not diseases People are so much more than their disorder

"Few genuine connections." Give time to a relations where you can share all your worries without being judged. Your parents, siblings. A phone call is enough to solve your worries.

1. Tell him that treatment is a fight between him and his disease. You are trying to help him. If he does not give full information, he may lose the battle. Also tell that you have already qualified for your degree. If he wants to test you, you will still pass the exam, but he…

What should my reaction be when a patient with this thick file of treatment taken elsewhere over the past three years refuses to give any verbal history but demands my opinion in 10 mins? #MedTwitter #DiaryOfAnOncologist

"Do not come up I will handle them” last words of MAJOR UNNIKRISHNAN who immortalized in Hotel Taj. Later MUMBAI was back to normal & every one talking about the spirit of MUMBAI. Wish MUMBAIKAR could have met Smt DHANALAKSHMI mother of MAJOR & seen what in reality SPIRIT means.

11 years ago today I asked a very, very, very unpopular question. 11 years later—people are talking about doctor suicide. Many are starting to ask why. A few are ready to hear the truth.
