ABSTRACT

In the challenging landscape of medical education, students face numerous stressors negatively impacting their mental health. The storm of these stressors causes psychological anguish which impacts their personal as well as future professional lives and thus it is crucial to acknowledge their issues and help them by inculcating the ability to adapt, persevere, and become more resilient. Resilience acts like a mental reservoir of strength and encompasses various psychological resources and coping strategies that can be used in difficult situations to thrive in the face of adversities. Resilience plays an important role in sustaining mental health among medical students. The primary goal of this review paper is to shed light on the intricate interplay between resilience and mental health among students to not only develop a better understanding of their mental health status but also develop effective interventional and coping strategies to help the students flourish in their lives.
