Alternatively, a new card something alone the lines of

Main body:
Are you alone?
{{c1::No}}

Extra:
Med school is hard. Then after that, two to three sentences describing mental health in the medical school community and/or the physician community at large, and the struggles that come with training. These are filler words for another sentence. More filler words for another sentence. Here are some resources that can help:

Resources:
Resource A: 988
Resource B
Resource C
Resource D
Resource E

Then after that tags with some of the B&B videos and/or Sketchy videos or First Aid topics pertaining to depression, so when they review those topics the card pops up

I love this idea
We need to have this

Yeah. Here’s a bit more fleshed out of a version for a new card:

Med school is hard, and the pressures of training can be overwhelming. Mental health challenges are common among medical students and physicians and the profession carries a significant emotional toll. Burnout, stress, and anxiety are prevalent issues that can significantly impact well-being. It is important that we recognize these struggles, seek help when needed, and support each other as a community. Here are some resources that can help:

  1. 988: The Suicide and Crisis Lifeline provides 24/7, free and confidential support for people in distress. Call or text if you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis.
  2. FreeCBT: This free app provides a simple framework for self-guided cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), helpful for managing stress and anxiety.
  3. CBT-i Coach: Developed by the US Department of Veterans Affairs, this free app offers a framework for cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-i) to improve sleep habits, learn more about sleep, and improve your sleep environment—critical for medical students
  4. National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI): Provides support and resources for individuals struggling with mental health issues. Home | NAMI: National Alliance on Mental Illness
  5. Grounding Exercises: A selection of YouTube videos offering grounding techniques to help manage acute stress and anxiety. ( Grounding exercises - YouTube)
  6. Self-Compassion Exercises: Videos to help cultivate self-compassion, an important skill for well-being and resilience. ( Self compassion exercises - YouTube)

Remember that these resources are supplemental and are meant to augment rather than replace qualified professional help from a mental health professional

@Ahmed7 should I discard this suggestion I feel it’s a bit redundant at this point

I feel it’s a minor edit and it’s at the bottom, if i was doing this card, i wouldn’t mind if it’s there

Yea i think it can just be discarded
