Hey guys!
I am a new member of this community and I was just looking around when I came across this.
I can understand and empathize with what you’re going through Amanda, because I happen to be going through the same thing.
I am currently doing my undergraduate course in medicine. I love and adore this career but I think that what I want to do later after this might be a little different to what is expected.
I love reading and writing and I absolutely love traveling and discovering new places.
People tell me that I can juggle things around- the career, the travel, the writing. And I don’t really argue with that.
I would just like to know whether this thing I’m doing now, this questioning of my career choice, this revaluation of my life decisions is really something I should be doing.
I love medicine. I love writing, reading and traveling.
As Amanda said in her summary, am i just ruining an amazing thing by thinking too much or should i really give it some serious thought?
Medicine is an amazing career and it’s not really a responsibility you can just walk away from. But I am scared that I might end up regretting not taking this unrest seriously.
Something just feels wrong about the compromise people are telling me to accept.
Can someone please help?
