So results came in after 1st year and i passed to second year MD 2 with A's and B's in all exams. what is scaring me is that when i speak to junior doctors they dishearten me and tell me what a crap life they have as medical residents.
Thats literally all i hear 24/7 residents complain and telling me im must have been mad doing medicine and should have stayed in my undergrad degree. This has caused me alot of doubts about my future and im actually feeling depressed about my choice.
seriously i enjoyed the 1st year subjects thats why i got full marks in most of my exams, as i find the degree and med school facinating. However i dont wish to graduate to become a depressed, obese no life resident who is on the verge of suicide and has no social life.
im a guy who enjoys people and thats why i took up medicine i live to help others out and for connections. But i dont want to work 24/7 and face disgruntled, suicidal colleagues who are constantly bragging about their crappy lives.
Im actually starting to doubt whether i should even bother doing a residency and just head into industry or research (R&D)
