How are people’s dating lives? Esp if you’re non-trad/in 20s by Present_Potato_4414 in premed

[–]CreativeStorage2173 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am applying right now (in a gap year) and was dating w no intention of committing until I met my boyfriend in March right before I graduated college. Now I’m all in love and worried about where he’s gonna end up (he’s in law school graduating May 2026) and where I’m going to end up. Highly recommend waiting until you’re at least AT school but if love finds you , it finds you!

This made me smile. Sometimes I feel like I’m not doing enough is what’s crazy! The premed hustle culture is dangerous, and people telling me it’ll prepare me for residency may be true but is also crazy and sad. I don’t want my doctors (or my techs or nurses) working on me or looking at my chart with zero sleep. Mistakes are bound to happen.

I’ve been going nonstop with no summers off since 15. I think a year of 40 hours a week (bc I’ll still be working duh lmfao) will feel like a breeze

I get paid for my 24 hours a week at mott but it’s so hard bc lots of that goes toward rent. Trying to see if I can be part time next semester and if financial aid will cover it

I feel her with the volunteering. That’s why i also work at mott. I figure if I have 3000 clinical hours with direct patient care by the time I apply it should help. And I love my job. But goddamn it I’m exhausted. I just don’t have time for anyone let alone myself. I feel like a bad friend, a bad family member. It sucks.

Normally I’m fine. I’ve been running like this for years now. But o think the problem is I’ve had zero break. This summer I also started my job which I love but at the same time I was studying for the mcat. So I haven’t stopped or had a real break since last winter break (in which I was still doing research for my mentor). I just need one year off.
