NHS pressures aren’t just impacting patients' physical health, they’re affecting doctors’ mental health too.
According to a survey carried out on behalf of ITV News, many feel burnt out, demoralised and some are even driven to have suicidal thoughts.
More than half said last year was worse for their mental health than either of the pandemic years.
265 Junior doctors responded to the survey, which was shared online by the Charity Duty to Care.
91% said that since becoming an NHS junior doctor, their mental health had been negatively impacted.
