First 2 years of online lectures and 16h/day of studying and then a last 8 week step 1 push of 18h/day...

Life feels strangely empty after step 1.

I've got 2 free weeks but I have no idea how to spend it. Haven't spoken to family in months and friends in 2 years.

Man, I almost wish I hadn't taken it so far before rotations because now everything is so EMPTY and DULL. Feels like my life has no purpose w/o step 1.

Anyone feel the same? Step 1 left an empty void in my soul.

After the exam I chilled and hung with friends for about a week.. after that I have this weird feeling that I should be doing something productive.. especially since everyone I know has gone back to school by now.

I personally have taken up going to the gym a lot more now, try to get atleast somewhat back into shape... step 1 studying probably took 5 years off my life/health.

i assume you've already gone over step II q bank, so start step III. starting early will give you an advantage over your classmates.
