I had the worst experience with Step 1 due to family toxicity and ex-girlfriend problems. Regret going home to study for free food by my parents. By the end of Step 1 dedicated I was scoring 70-75% on the NBMEs but had a score drop on Free 120 to 64% and spiraled into crippling anxiety and sadness and postponed by a week. I passed but i'm not even happy about it. I'm starting rotations and I feel so icky and stressed. My mentor knows I'm in introvert and I need to standout if I want to Honors but I have a fear I'm going to choke on History taking, Physical, and presentations with attendings. I feel I'm becoming socially inept in a group setting and don't know if I deserve to be in this profession.
