I feel like I have given everything up for this life that is just making me unhappy, and I am almost $150,000 in debt with no way to pay it back. I have been working towards becoming a doctor for a decade...and have poured all my time and money and heart and soul into it...but I am still very unhappy. I do love kids and do desire to be either a pediatrician or a pediatric oncologist/hematologist...but I have a bachelors in biochemistry and do not love science anymore, I am actually sick of it and am completely exhausted. My parents and teachers are urging me to give it up since they see me drained. Something in me keeps going despite all my setbacks, but I am wondering if I am foolish for even pursuing medicine. Should I leave this field?
