Hey guys, I know this is one of those sob story posts, but I guess I'd just appreciate any helpful advice or support. I'm a second year med student who just feels really unhappy. I don't have any close friends in my class...a lot of that is my fault as I haven't really been the best at reaching out and trying to make close friends. But tbh there is just something about my class and maybe med school in general that has made me want to keep my distance. I don't always feel comfortable around the gung-ho, competitive, super involved people in medicine. I can't muster the same level of excitement about being a doctor and don't have the energy to pretend like I think it's the best thing ever. I don't know...I just feel so cut off and isolated sometimes and feel like I've made a mistake coming to med school. Anyone else out there just not feel super close with their class or super excited about the med school journey? I came in feeling kind of ambivalent about medicine but hoping the people and the material would foster a sense of purpose and passion for medicine. Instead, I think a lot of the personalities have sort of turned me off and made me more wary of medicine. I often feel so alone in feeling this way because it really does seem like everyone else loves medical school and has best friends while I'm this weird loner who kind of just pops in and out of school but doesn't have any real attachment to the people or the institution. Is this abnormal?
