My husband and I were talking about me considering medicine as a career and how I don't handle stress well. I'm easily overwhelmed. I also tend to panic. Once our stove caught fire and instead of thinking rationally I panicked. He came over, rolled his eyes, told me to calm down and quickly put it out. I tend to thrive when I have ample time to think over each part of the problem before coming to a solution and he expressed that this might be an issue. He asked me "What if someone starts to code?" And things like that. I'm sorry for rambling but my question is, are there parts of medicine where immediate decisions aren't required? Would this type of personality greatly hinder me? Has anyone developed the ability to deal with stress that they didn't have originally? Thanks.
