i hate the bad thoughts i have about myself.I mean,i know i have a wonderful life.I Have very worried and caring parents and frinds,my family is wealthy,i dont have any health problems etcetera.but I can’t stop thinking that i am too dumb to go to med school,that i am to damm uggly to be interesting, that i lack social skills compared to my frinds,that i dont make my parents proud and that i am to selfish.I think it is why i want to become a doctor,so it would help me stop worring with such ridiculous shit compared with real people’s problems.i just hope i stopping being so mean to myself so that i can be happy.unfortunately,i am the only one kepping myself of truly enjoying life.

You seem to have a very blessed life, but depression doesn’t really choose who it targets.
You are not too dumb to go to medical school. Maybe it’s just not right for you. Maybe you’d be more successful or happier doing something else. We’re all good at different things and learn in different ways. It’s important to find a career path that is suited for you AND you’d enjoy.
Careers are limited to being doctors. There are lot of other things you can do. And you might even change your mind at the last minute.
I studied to be a pharmacist for 2 years in college until I realized that mixing chemicals and reading formulas and diluting solutions in a lab all day just was not for me. And I changed my major. And now I’m doing a job that is suited for me, but isn’t even related to that major AT ALL!
Don’t get bogged down too much about not becoming a doctor.
How do you know you’re ugly? That word is completely subjective. My wife and I (both women) look at girls totally differently. We NEVER agree on what is beautiful. I say “Oh, she’s so beautiful.” and she says “You’re crazy!!! She’s not beautiful at all!”
And besides, when you get into the working world, it’s not about looks. It’s a little bit about personality. And it’s almost all about whether or not you can provide a service to people that they need. That’s what it boils down to.
Learn a skill you love or are interested in. Master it. Turn it into your career. Work happily and make money effortlessly.
