I'm a blank... depressed cause I just don't know how to cope with:
-being away from family,
-around over-achievers 24/7,
-performing at the average with 85-90% scores on exams,
-pressures of a classmate significant other who is one of those over-achievers that does nothing but study all day long
-when all I want to do is go see a free outdoor concert on a Tues night,
-knowing that I will owe the government about 300K by the time dental school is over,
-being told by classmates from more affluent backgrounds that that's no big deal cause "it's just money",
-not knowing if I should vote Democrat cause they'll end the financial black hole of a war sooner but raise taxes or republican cause they won't raise taxes like their counterparts will,
-wishing ron paul was on a ballot this november,
-wanting a home cooked meal I didn't have to make every once in a while,
-finding it more important to learn about ways to be a better clinician than memorizing every assay for a hundred pathogenic microorganisms,
-not being able to enjoy hobbies like painting or going to the beach in socal or -traveling, or a bunch of other stuff cause it's too expensive or time-consuming,
-being stuck in the dungeon with no windows that is our restorative lab for excessive amounts of time day in and day out,
-not knowing if I did the right thing by coming here cause it's damaging my health, my family prospects, and my personal relationships.
Life is pretty sucky right now... What would you do?
Anyone else feel like they want to commiserate? Let it out boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen...
Peace
