About The Book
BECOMING A DOCTOR DURING COVID AND DEPRESSION is a memoir about a junior doctor who qualified as a medical doctor during the first covid-19 wave. He started his internship after completing his studies 10 years later and went on to become an author. As he navigated his way into his career, he was once celebrated for the work he contributed through his book but later on had issues with his mental health. Depression got the best of him till he attempted to end his life twice! Mjolo (dating), finances, toxic working environment, and not taking care of his mental health are among the many factors that contributed towards this young doctor’s life. He survived it all and wrote this book which promises to serve as a tool for mental health awareness.
Don’t you worry, it’s not all sad. There is so much humor throughout the book and you will laugh at times, however, do grab a couple of tissues as well. You most likely will be triggered by some of the events mentioned in this book but, you won’t want to stop reading! Sit back, with your tissues in hand, grab or coffee or beer or whatever; and enjoy the book
