I want to be with someone who likes talking to me. I don’t feel like that’s too much to ask. Someone who wants to build a house for me to make a home in.

To be loved by someone who wants to get to know me. To be loved by someone who wants nothing more from me than the simple things. To have and to hold.

Commitment that is more than a wedding band, or a sexual vow to never sleep with anyone else. A commitment that is just a testimony that is inside already.

A commitment that is voluntary, that is wanted. For spiritual, physical, and emotional monogomy. Someone who wanting only me, would make the declaration and wear the evidence.

I want a man. Just one man, to want me, just one me. So that I myself can have release, and love with all of me. To love someone mind, body, and soul with no fear.

With truth, with faith, with trust. With everything. That’s all I want. Without fear. Without all the misguided lying and tears.

Someone who loves me beyond all the years, forever.

Forever.

If you’re thinking about studying medicine, read this.

Remember that it’s hard for everyone and no one woke up one day knowing it all.

Don’t compare yourself to others : you don’t know what’s behind that girl who spends hours at the library, or that guy that claims he knows everything by heart. Do your thing and have faith.

It’s not because you’ve “studied” for 6 hours straight that you’ve actually been productive. Quality over quantity, always (I still tend to forget about this sometimes)

Don’t ditch physics and chemistry. Also, don’t ditch any important textbook chapter to save you time! You’ll thank me later.  

Please take care of your mental health. Take your medication if you need some, and look for help if you’re feeling stuck.

Try to stay healthy and to keep moving, it actually helps a lot.

DRINK. YOUR. WATER.

Find YOUR study method. It’s not because everyone else is studying something in a certain way that it’ll work for you.

Don’t lose too much time on useless details. Focus on key concepts instead.

Nothing is ever like it seems and nothing is ever like you imagined. 

Stress is only bad if you see it that way. You can’t avoid stress but you can see it in a positive way instead. Whenever you’re feeling anxious just close your eyes and take a deep breath and think about something that makes you happy. This could be anything : your cat, your family, a warm cup of tea… just imagine something that will put a smile on your face. You’ll feel relieved.

Have faith that the Universe has a plan for you. Accept fear and embrace it with love. You’re allowed to expect miracles.  

Sleep is SO IMPORTANT : make sure you sleep at least 7 hours every night! Sleep is actually the best way to memorize what you’ve learned in a day.

Delete social media from your phone if it’s bothering/distracting you. Also, remember that ¾ of what you see on Instagram is fake.

Take real breaks. One hour break won’t make you lose time. It’ll make you more productive, especially if you’ve been studying for hours. Your brain will process what you’ve learned whilst you’re doing other things.

Learn how to be disciplined. Build a routine. Try to stick to it. But remember to change one thing at a time so you won’t feel overwhelmed.

Please go outside when it’s sunny and get your dose of happiness and vitamin D

Good people exist so please don’t be afraid to ask for help.

Be grateful. Always.

You will never know what people think of you, and most of the time you’re the only one who’s been judging yourself.

Don’t drink too much coffee.

Meditate, even for 5 minutes each day.

Don’t forget to have fun along the way !

While re-reading this I feel like these tips can be applied to everyone and not only med students! Don’t hesitate to write your own advice in the comments :) 

Hope you liked it!

If you struggle with anxiety, overwhelm, or just plain feeling like a failure, I have a mantra for you that’s been really helping me out lately:

Just show up.

I used to skip class because the whole thing was so overwhelming: I had to get dressed in something clean even though I never had the energy to do laundry, walk to school, sit in class for up to three hours, plus pay attention, take notes, and participate in discussion. In reality, I was being a perfectionist, and life would have been a lot easier for me if I had Just Shown Up. By staying home because of my depression and anxiety, I wasn’t giving myself the chance to do any of that. I was such a perfectionist that being a “bad” or average student was unthinkable, so I stopped being a student at all.

If you’re having trouble getting something done, Just Show Up. You don’t have to be employee of the month. You don’t have to be valedictorian. Just Show Up.
