​Overview
From earliest history, human beings have gathered in social groups; first to survive and then to thrive.
As social creatures living in communities, we have always struggled with finding the balance between individual rights and the “greater good.”
     In today’s complex and interconnected world, we continue to grapple with this balance.
We have developed systems of government, law, education, and healthcare to organize our societies. We also rely upon theology, ethics, philosophy, and art to guide our collective moral compass.
As psychiatrists, we are on the leading edge of challenging social and ethical dilemmas. We are involved in cases of involuntary hospitalization and treatment and are often consulted on matters of competency.
Such decisions can be at odds with self-determination.  The gun violence epidemic in our country is one of the most striking examples of the conflict between individual rights and public safety.  Mental illness is often proposed in the media and by politicians as the cause of mass shootings, deflecting attention from gun control and societal failings.
     More than other specialties, psychiatry interfaces with patients experiencing society’s worst failings: homelessness, abuse, violence, and addiction, to name a few.
     On a daily basis, doctors struggle with lack of resources for our patients.  Trying to do our best for our patients in a broken system takes a significant toll.  Healthcare’s systemic failures were further highlighted by the pandemic. As a specialty, psychiatrists need to lead the way in addressing burnout and moral injury.
Talking about mistakes is also complex in medicine.  Health systems and legal consultants may discourage “admission of guilt” or even a simple apology.  This conundrum leaves physicians, who are all too human, further isolated and burdened. Again, psychiatrists can be leaders in supporting ourselves and our colleagues in addressing this challenge.
     Please join MPS for our Spring 2023 meeting. We will take on challenging topics and provide a forum for discussion of innovative solutions.
