Hey I am on Medial • 1d
Been feeling completely stuck lately — mentally, professionally, in every way. It feels like I’m not learning anything new, not growing, and honestly, even the thought of applying somewhere builds up anxiety now. Earlier, I had patience — I kept telling myself that it’ll take time, things will eventually fall into place. But that patience is running thin now. Every small thing — whether it’s trying to prep, apply, or even sticking to a basic routine — feels exhausting. I’m not someone who usually compares myself to others. But these days, it’s hard not to. Seeing juniors get placed, people finding direction, hearing about PPOs — it hits differently now. No matter how much I try to avoid that mindset, it creeps in. It’s been almost a year now since graduation — completely out of that phase. Neither in college anymore, nor properly settled into anything. And that space in between? Honestly, it drains you. Maybe part of it was because I had a soft commitment from one of the companies for a PPO. Somewhere deep down, I pinned my hopes on that and didn’t look around seriously enough. Looking back, that feels like a mistake — but at this point, there’s no point dwelling on it. All of this has taken a mental toll. My routine is all over the place, stress levels are high, and career uncertainty has started affecting every part of life. I had considered internships or short-term roles, but even that feels late now. And there’s always that fear — what if I get something but can’t convert it into a full-time offer? It feels like that would just pull me further down. Masters, MBA — doesn’t feel right at this point. I don’t want to jump into something just to escape this feeling of being stuck. Feels like most people around me have found some direction, some clarity. I haven’t. And that uncertainty? That weighs heavy.

The ability to work goes down once you have stopped working. Couple of classes / recordings a day was sort of usual for me. Couple of times a month it used to be 6-8 hours of live classes as well. Now if I have to do even half of that - it feels

Right now, it feels like there's a Bollywood movie going on in the US instead of politics. At one time, Trump and Elon were friends, but now they’re slowly turning into enemies. But the one who's losing the most in all this is Elon himself the reason
