"TAKING CARE OF THOSE WHO CARE FOR" I always come across questions from friends, family and even patients themselves with the question: “Do psychologists also need psychologists?” The answer I always give is: Absolutely! This response is linked to psychological assistance for healthcare workers who, like any being, independent of any activity they carry out, need care like any other being. So when I get this question, I ask another question afterwards: Do doctors get sick too? The answer is right. “Of course you get sick!” Therefore, preventive actions are necessary like any human being. Fears, anxieties, depressions, etc., are part of a human being's life and care is certainly increased and becomes a main duty of the professional who provides assistance to another human being, as well as the duty to take every care of oneself. When I take an anamnesis, I ask the patient about their personal life and routines, such as: • Sleep hours; • Food; • Possible physical activities; • Balance between work and leisure; • Emotional life; • About your life philosophies and your search for balance in your daily life. These are the same questions we should always ask ourselves! Before helping our patient, it is extremely important to know ourselves in depth and know that we must, above all, have: • Self-love (it is essential to love yourself); • Maintain high self-esteem; • Seek our own appreciation; • When necessary, seek care from qualified professionals; • If there are internal conflicts, know how to forgive yourself in cases of mistakes; • Always seek moments of peace and pleasure to relieve stress. Therefore, it is a Healthcare Professional's duty to take care of himself, more than any patient, because before providing any type of care he is also a patient, a patient of himself! Feeding all areas of your life, with good health and personal, professional and spiritual well-being in a healthy and balanced way.
