Stress is the body’s reaction to changes that requires physical, mental, or physiological adjustment. Medical training is identified as full of stress and it is also observed that students undergo tremendous stress during various years of medical training. This challenges
many students’ previous self-image as successful and capable of “perfect mastery”. With a transition training, students learn how to approach and handle patients. Although students are expected to be increasingly competent, they continue to feel ignorant and anxious. They learn to cope with these feelings by adopting maladaptive behaviors.

This workshop is designed to help the Postgraduate students of SDUMC, cope with stress.
