The AnonyMed Initiative serves as a platform for physicians and medical/pre-medical students to share their first-hand perspectives and stories about mental health, with an option to stay anonymous. We hope to change the culture surrounding mental health in medicine through storytelling!
In recognizing that the current culture surrounding mental health may not be conducive to sharing, we hope that ensuring confidentiality may help mitigate that concern for those who may be on the fence.
Narratives will be featured online in our Instagram (@medical.minds.matter) and may be posted on our website.
