Today’s episode involves a conversation about high-functioning stress with Nikita Sehgal, a licensed psychotherapist. We discuss the signs and symptoms of high-functioning stress, what steps we can take to manage our stress, and how to approach loved ones who may be demonstrating these signs as well. This episode applies to optometrists and optometry students, as we are high-functioning individuals who may often experience mental fatigue and burnout due to the stressful demands of our careers. Learn more on Nikita’s Instagram page @inclusivepsychotherapy and visit her website to schedule a therapy session!
