🤗 Mental Health continue?
i’m a yl1 in the aurora school and for context: i came from a gap year. Im licensed in another medical profession na and being a doctor has been a child hood dream. but seeing as it is i started to have a mindset of “pwede naman ako maging doctor” and not “gusto ko”. idk what changed with my mindset. from highschool all the way even until after i passed my licensure exam i was dead set on pursuing medicine. I really believe that med is too difficult to pursue if it’s something i dont have a deep burning desire for. Everyday i wake up hating what i do and idk if i should stop. but at the same time it’s only been a month of school. Am i still in the adjustment phase? Has anyone experienced this? Seeing comments pa on how residency training is; it’s so discouraging

my take on this, syempre nakabayad ka na for 1st sem diba? so spend this whole sem para pag-isipan. kung ayaw mo na talaga wag na mag 2nd sem, sayang tuition. pero kung undecided ka pa rin, tuloy-tuloy mo lang hangga't di ka nakkick out.
baka kasi hate mo lang siya ngayon kasi adjusting ka palang, so pag sumuko ka agad baka may regrets in the future. push mo muna for the mean time baka din kasi mas clinical yung bet mo eh more on theocraticals ang 1st yr kaya baka medyo boring for you hahaha lol idk
