🩺 White coats. Heavy hearts. Quiet addictions.
More than half of Kenyan medics have abused prescription drugs.
Many are using opioids like morphine and pethidine to cope with exhaustion, trauma, and untreated mental health issues.
Some start during medical school. Most never get help.
They care for others while quietly falling apart.
Pain masked by professionalism. Silence buried under scrubs.
