Help me with my career future

Hi! For context I'm a 16 year old in India. I chose science after my 10th boards. My first career path was to be a psychiatrist or oncologist. I grew up with people who knew help but couldn't for reasons varied. But as I've grown up I learnt that the path to become one is treacherous and I wouldn't be able to earn good money till my late 20's i don't want to live in my parents'check. My parents are doctors so I think I've always had a want for medicine.

But lately I've been very passionate about pursuing English honours. I'm sincerely attracted to the works of literature. I want to write and read with people who love english. I wish to study history related works and learn shit i wouldn't know before. I want to work in journalism or be an author after that. I don't know what to do.. something I know is that I want to work with people. To help them or guide them. I think I'm already short on time because some people already chose their paths. Help me💜I don't know what to pursue. Is medical worth losing your youth?
