SharikaParticipantMicheal, that’s really good news! Congratulations!
Hope you get everything you want and deserve. =)Foe me personally, I think things have gotten better. I advanced a year and my subjects have changed and I find that I like the subjects more. Things are probably going to get more stressful in the coming years but hopefully, things work out.
I concentrated more on my writing too and that’s probably helping with the whole situation too.I hope everyone else is doing really well too. Would love to hear what all you guys are upto now.
SharikaParticipantThank you guys so much for your valuable inputs!
Amanda, I did think about it and found that though this train of thought started recently, it is pretty deep rooted. So I probably should take it seriously or should at least give it a chance.
I tried thinking of a scenario of not listening to this voice, of shutting it down but I experience this claustrophobia, this nausea that just makes me feel absolutely terrible and terrified.
So I don’t really think that that is an option.
But as you pointed out, I might just need a more unique outlook to medicine, considering the fact that pursuing a career in medicine does seem like the right thing to do. So maybe I just need to find a way to play around with them till I find a plan which works.
Heather, I absolutely adore Amanda’s and your viewpoints and advice in this matter and I hope that I can introspect and try to use your tips to figure out how to deal with this restlessness. First self discover and then self create. talk to people around, take a few classes, I ended up getting really helpful tips! =)
Amanda, I completely understand the part about needing permission to listen to your inner voice. It is just so chaotic with everyone having their own opinions that I am really starting to doubt mine.
But at the same time, I seem to feel guilty too, about not being grateful enough with all the amazing things I have already been blessed with. Am I just being a spoilt brat right now?
BenzRabbit, I would probably still be inclined towards these things if it still wasn’t about the money, so I’m still confused.
But seriously guys, thank you so much for just listening. <3
It means a lot!
Thank you! =)SharikaParticipantHey 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? -
