I am a 25 year old medical (MD) student in the east coast of the US. In undergraduate school I never got anything less than an A- from an Ivy League school.
I had a near perfect GPA. It is final exam period now at my medical school and I got a “pass” in a class. The grading system is Pass/High Pass/ Honors/ Fail.

I didn’t sleep for 60 hours because I was deathly afraid I would never match into an uber competitive specialty like orthopedic surgery or neurosurgery. I wrote three suicide notes but eventually turned myself in to some professional counseling. I was granted a leave of absence from my studies and should be able to check up during the summer.

I need to realize that grades aren’t that important anymore. Supposedly “passing” is fine. What matters most are my scores on the various Board exams.
 
Oh Lord, Bless Scapular Lord, with profound and great wisdom. We, your children, need medical professionals with such great wisdom.

Amen.

I know I need them. Please dont let them given up on themselves. We need them to aid…

Pray for us!
 
Scpapular Dude, I thank God that he brought you back from the edge of death.
I will pray for you.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women and
blessed is the Fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners
now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
 
You are in my prayers. I thank God that you decided to ask for help. May the Lord bless you and keep you, always.
 
You are in my prayers. Please don’t think I am cussing when I write this but I am more quoting what has been written. St. Francis had a funny relationsip with Brother ***, his own body, with whom he had to reconcile upon his death as he admitted Brother *** had been there throughout his ministry. In other words you need to take care of your body and make sure that you get some sleep. When you get a chance do a search for St Francis of Assisi and Brother *** and it may give you a good laugh in times of trouble. Pax et Bonum.
 
I just went to my doctor this week for help with anxiety.

He shared with me his deep dark depression while in residency and how he even has to take medication to this day.

Sometimes we think that we are the only ones in the world with mental problems…but we are not alone.

Praise God you have sought help.

Yes, I will pray for you.
 
20 “Why is light given to those in misery,
and life to the bitter of soul,
21 to those who long for death that does not come,
who search for it more than for hidden treasure,
22 who are filled with gladness
and rejoice when they reach the grave?
23 Why is life given to a man
whose way is hidden,
whom God has hedged in?
24 For sighing has become my daily food;
my groans pour out like water.
25 What I feared has come upon me;
what I dreaded has happened to me.
26 I have no peace, no quietness;
I have no rest, but only turmoil.”
Job 3:20-26

Help us Lord in our suffering to know Your great Mercy.
You who turn shame into Glory, suffering into Joy, and death into Life,
help us too to renounce ourselves, pick up our cross, and follow you.
That our shame may be turned into Glory, our tears into Joy, and in the death of our will Your will might rein in us to bring us to Your Life.

Memorae
Glory Be

Remember, we can only do our lousy best. May God bless you on your journey to this noble profession.
“He endows men with the knowledge to glory in his mighty works, Through which the doctor eases pain and the druggist prepares his medicines;” Sirach 38
 
Lord, deliver us from the elite who engender a world view that their realm defines us, not Thee and Thy Kingdom, O Most High God. Great Physician, bring Thy healing of hearts and souls, bodies and minds. May we only and always seek first Thy Kingdom, Thy righteousness, that Thy abundant life on Earth may be ours, and eternal happiness with Thee in Heaven. AMEN

The Lord turn his countenance to you and grant you peace
The Lord bless you

All the best !
