Bangui - Post Report Question and Answers

Are there any particular mental health issues that tend to crop up at post, such as Seasonal Affective Disorder (winter blues)?

Bangui is a tiny post but has a lot of visits. You may experience burn out as the embassy staff is doing the work of a normal size embassy with about only 12 people at post. Every week there is a new set of visitors that require lots of attention and resources. It is a very busy post. Burnout is common. - Oct 2017
