Estresse na forma??o médica: precisamos olhar para nossos alunos

摘要

It is well known that the mental health of medical students is a global problem of significant proportions1. Rates of anxiety and depression, for example, are significantly higher among medical students than in the general population. In Brazil available studies indicate that this is also a reality2. The interest in aspects related to the mental health of this population has been growing, as illustrated in the current issue of the Brazilian Journal of Psychiatry3,4.
