stress

My boyfriend started medical school about a month ago and Im having some tough moments relating to the stress he's going through. I do my best to be supportive, I do more of the chores, cooking, cleaning to make things less stressful for him. I do my best to help him calm down when he's stressed...

This has been asked probably a million times, but I just wanted to bring it up again. Some things have been getting to me lately, and since everything I'm experiencing now is nowhere as stressful as med school, I wanted some input for my sanity in the future. Sometimes I know why I'm stressed...

Latley I've been so stressed out with my college courses to the point of me feeling like I want to quit. I'm now stuck with taking nothing but sciences and a few electives. I'm trying to get into a dental school, even talked to the director of admissions. I've asked for her advice and she told...

Hello I've been an Ob/gyn resident for two months (in my country, a student who has already chosen a speciality is called resident), and I am scared! Don't get me wrong, I love ob/gyn, I love the OR, I love the speciality per sé. The problem is, there is this enormous pressure to learn, there is...

I got accepted to medical school and plan to start in the fall. I know I should be happy, and I am, but I'm predominantly nervous because...I have depression. I'm in the process of recovery, but it is a long and arduous process, and because I have being suffering from depression for years now...

Hi! This is my first post and I apologize if I am in the wrong place. I am about to begin my second semester of my first year of college. As of now I am taking traditional pre-med classes. I do well, and I enjoy my science courses a lot, but it takes me so much longer to learn the material than...

I know this sounds really ludicrous but I really need help in this. I'm a gpa 4 student and I'm really interested in doing research with my professor who will probably agree to let me join his lab. I'm a second year student and this is my first time joining a lab. I tend to be scared with the...

Life is rough when you constantly check your email every 5 minutes. Last week, I decided to only check my email once a day. You still stay up-to-date, and you dont waste your focus with school/job/whatever. It's helped a lot - instead of being continuously disappointed, I'm only disappointed...

I'm an MS1 and I just started med school 3 weeks ago At first, I put a huge smile on my face and tried to become friends with everyone. I've made fun and supportive friends and I've done okay on my exams so far, but every day, I feel like I lose a little piece of my former self. It seems like I...

Hi, does anyone have any tips or advice for managing mental illness as a pre-med student?

Found this TED talk, and just wanted to see what others think. Is she overemphasizing the stress of medical school? Or is it really that brutal?
