Go for it, the sacrifices worth it. I’m a doctor in my last year of internship in physical medicine and rehabilitation and of course we deal with traumatic experiences everyday, but right now what scares me the most it getting used to it and to stop being empathetic with patients suffering from diseases and disabilities. But on the other hand, you need to build a wall between yourself and all of that because if not, we would not survive.
as someone who is also trying to go into medicine, i agree that there is a sense of anxiety taking that first step and overcoming that hurdle. working at an office right now, i feel like i am slowly becoming more use to it but its nowhere near what i will see later down the road, more traumatic events, dealing with heart break and stuff. i admire her admitting this and it is an expensive career to go into so i feel for her.
