I am going through the same thing right now. I left America to study in England and 2 months later realized that it is not what I want. I'm trying to come to terms with it and let God take over. Thank you for sharing your story and it is really comforting to know that I am not alone.
Same here! I am currently in the U.K. for grad school and very early on, I’ve come to the realization that this program is not aligned with how I want to live my life.
I am in my second semester of grad school and I absolutely hate it. I have no intention of quitting since I am almost done, but I literally hate it. It takes up so much time in my life and there is always something that needs to be done. I wish I had just stuck with having my undergrad. But I love my career so I guess it is worth it to finish.
You are absolutely right...God DOES order our steps! And life IS less taxing when you live in your truth. Case in point: My mother had no intention of going back to school and getting a bachelor's degree at age 62, but God had another plan for her life and gave her the knowledge and strength to complete her studies and get her degree in 2017. So the lesson I learned is... #1. you're never too old, and #2. you never know what God has in store for you up the road. Our Father has already set a predestined course for you! Expect and anticipate something even greater!! 😊🙏
currently in my 3rd year of phding (i went right in after undergrad) & unfortunately this has been a pretty miserable 3 years. i’m seriously considering leaving because i’m not happy, but moving back home during a pandemic & all the negative emotions associated with “quitting” is getting overwhelming.
Hey. I know how you feel. I just dropped my premed summer program. I had to withdraw. I don’t want to go to Med school rn. You have to find what makes you happy no matter what. I might consider epidemiology or public health before Med school. I wish I had a gf but life hasn’t brought me that yet, and I’m saddened about that. But, rn continue to work on your well-being it’s more important than school.
I salute you for being transparent and telling your journey. Trust me, I have been feeling this same way you felt about grad school ever since I first started my program during the Fall '19 semester. I have to sit out this semester because I received my second C in the program last semester just like you did. Now, I'm definitely very close to considering to drop out for good. The only reason I haven't withdraw yet is because I don't like quitting something I have already started. However, the more I continue to matriculate in the program, the more I feel internally miserable.
Thank you for sharing! I am currently in undergrad studying chemistry. I am considering going to graduate school (idk where yet) and have had so many worries. Even in undergrad I struggle with imposter syndrome and I think its holding me back from believing that I am smart enough to even go to graduate school. I know I want to continue doing research and get at least a masters degree because I don't feel ready to directly into the work force after completing undergrad. I just hope to have a good experience and at least earn my masters and if not I hope I have the courage and strength you did.
If god speaks to you your psychotic God hasn't spoken to anyone since biblical days. If you need career, academic, or advice on life go to someone who has what you want and ask them how they got there and what they did. God has left millions homeless, starving, don't forget the flu that everyone is praying to disappear. Stop using God as a crutch and learn to make informed decisions based on good problem solving skills and networking with people who are actually successful.

Thank you for sharing your story. I was going through a DPT program during COVID and experienced everything that you did.
Im in a similar situation, Did you end up leaving or taking a break?

Thank you so much for this video. My experience right now verbatim. So validating to know I’m not alone
You are so welcome! No, you're not alone :)
