Coming into med school, I thought I was very determined to pursue a career in surgery. However, over the past four months, especially with all those social science courses they make us take in med school, I have started to learn more about my personality and my real interests (I'm an ENFP). I began to realize that perhaps I should keep an open mind about other specialties, so I started reading and learning about some of the specialties that I had never thought I may be interested in. Psychiatry was one of them. I was surprised to learn how much my personality and career interests are in line of what to be expected in this field. I am a very sympathetic person, I'm genuinely interested in people and love interacting with them, and I am overly optimistic just about everything.
I'm wondering, how many ENFP's ended up in psychiatry, or planning on pursuing psychiatry, and what are the main reasons that draw you to this field?
Thank you,
