What Are the Long-Term Implications of Unaddressed Resentment?
If resentment is not addressed, it can lead to several long-term implications for both the patient and the healthcare system:
Avoidance of Care: Patients may begin to avoid seeking gynecological care altogether, which can lead to untreated conditions and worsening health outcomes. Mental Health Issues: Persistent resentment can contribute to anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. Decreased Trust: A lack of trust in healthcare providers can extend beyond gynecology, affecting the patient's overall relationship with the healthcare system. Patient Outcomes: Poor communication and unresolved resentment can lead to misdiagnoses, non-compliance with treatment, and ultimately poorer health outcomes.
