I honestly feel like I am interested in so many careers but weighing the pros and cons is so stressful because each one has nice pros but also some scary cons...
Medicine... offers lots of stability and a large scope for the field. But it also could potentially leave you burned out with no work life balance
Dentistry... offers that work life balance (or so I believe) along with an enjoyable hands on experience. But it could also leave you in a lot of debt more so than medical school. At least this is what it seems like, but I honestly feel like I would rather work as an associate or like a federally funded health center... in that regard I feel like that removes the large debt burden of owning a practice
Pharmacy... offers you the ability to provide the very thing a physician or dentist prescribed you, and help your community by educating them on their medications. It offers a retail experience and a clinical one as well. But it seems as if there is no job stability/openings, and that it’s very stressful at times too
Optometry... well this one I don’t see myself doing as much because I just don’t know much about the eye
Am I missing anything, or am I thinking about this correctly. What are your opinions on these professions and which would you choose and why? I’m just afraid to take a huge risk and hate my life, but I know I want to do one of these.
