Hari ini Unit Lavender meraikan semua klien yang telah bersama kami di sepanjang tahun ini dan juga mengucapkan selamat jalan kepada jurupulih carakerja kami yang sangat berdedikasi.

Sepatah dua kata saya hari ini adalah lebih kepada analogi di bawah.

Dunia ini seperti sekolah untuk kita, ada subjek, peperiksaan dan pencapaian tertentu. Kadang-kala ada subjek yang tak dapat dielakkan dan wajib diambil, peperiksaan dia p**a sama untuk semua orang yang tak serupa keupayaan. Oleh itu akan ada macam-macam jenis pencapaian, kerana tiada seorang pun yang serupa. Unit kami p**a adalah kelas tambahan terutamanya untuk mereka yang ada setback tertentu, dan hari ini kami raikan usaha jerih mereka untuk mencapai diri mereka yang hari ini. Kita berikan hadiah sebagai penghargaan dan juga untuk dijadikan inspirasi kepada yang lain. Untuk mereka yang tidak mendapat hadiah hari ini, bukan bermakna mereka tidak bagus tapi masih belum habis belajar semua. 🌏

Terima kasih kepada semua anggota pasukan Lavender 2025. Dan terima kasih juga kepada semua klien dan ahli keluarga klien yang telah memberikan sokongan berterusan kepada program kami. Semoga bertemu lagi di 2026 🪻🪻🪻🪻🪻🪻🪻

The Declaration of Geneva (2017), as currently published by the World Medical Association[6] reads:

AS A MEMBER OF THE MEDICAL PROFESSION:
I SOLEMNLY PLEDGE to consecrate my life to the service of humanity;

THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF MY PATIENT will be my first consideration;

I WILL RESPECT the autonomy and dignity of my patient;

I WILL MAINTAIN the utmost respect for human life;

I WILL NOT PERMIT considerations of age, disease or disability, creed, ethnic origin, gender, nationality, political affiliation, race, sexual orientation, social standing or any other factor to intervene between my duty and my patient;

I WILL RESPECT the secrets that are confided in me, even after the patient has died;

I WILL PRACTICE my profession with conscience and dignity and in accordance with good medical practice;

I WILL FOSTER the honour and noble traditions of the medical profession;

I WILL GIVE to my teachers, colleagues, and students the respect and gratitude that is their due;

I WILL SHARE my medical knowledge for the benefit of the patient and the advancement of healthcare;

I WILL ATTEND TO my own health, well-being, and abilities in order to provide care of the highest standard;

I WILL NOT USE my medical knowledge to violate human rights and civil liberties, even under threat;

I MAKE THESE PROMISES solemnly, freely and upon my honour.

Explaining joking vs bullying to a parent today.

A joke is funny when everyone is laughing and no one is hurt.

Bully is when you saw that the other person is hurt by what you have said and you knowingly continue to do it.

Worse, you get other people to do it too.

Even worse, nobody think it’s wrong.

MMED is a journey filled with extra tears and pain for some, yet they persevered and persisted to rise through their stumbles.

Perhaps these will make them a better psychiatrist in the future. Hard working, emphatic and resilient.

As part of knowledge and research exchange, from time to time we have visits from other centres and universities across the globe. This time we were fortunate to have Dr Giovanni Austonni, the Director of the Community Mental Health Centre in Monfalcone, Italy, who shared with us about the Trieste model practiced in his centre. It is one of the best model recognised by the WHO for community Psychiatry.

As usual, the typical Malaysian hospitality is by giving our visitor the best gastronomical experience.

Thread and TikTok.

These platforms are showing the rise in female empowerment and their voices against gender based violence.

While on Facebook, it’s same old same old.

Generational gap has never been so real.

In DBT, the therapeutic alliance is very much emphasised as it can be one of the factors keeping the clients alive. Therapist and client has a relationship of equal human beings, where both are committed in the journey of therapy.

I’d like to think that I may have reached that level today when the patient declared with gusto “I can do this! I’m a b*tch!” and I replied with “yeah bok bok b*tch!” (The patient caught on the reference and we had a good laugh before parting ways.)

Read this book if you want to get into the fascinating mind of the DBT creator.
