I hate medicine but my family has trapped me
i never liked medicine and it wasn’t even my dream but my family was obsessed with it ever since I was 13-14 so right after high school, I was told to told so and i was trapped in this viscous cycle of entrance exam for 3 years + covid happened and I suffered a lot then later when i finally got into med school - they wore all happy and i left in between because i could not take it and I was panicking. I was worried that since i don’t have any other degree and what if I regret it even more as i grow older. now i’ve applied for another degree but my family is still obsessed and they don’t talk to me like they’ve blocked me. OMG so i suffered for so long and now they tell me that i have to stop living in the past and that “medicine is the best, it’s just that you couldn’t do it even with support” like hello I never wanted that and now they will compare me with my relatives.
and im sooo angry i wasted my late teens and early 20s just because of this and i hate seeing doctors and anything related with this field ! like i desperately want to escape idk what to do 😭 HELP
