Self-Doubt is Overpowering my Life Decisions.
Student Support / by Potato2529

...See more I am currently in a non-traditional pre-med course, but has decided, after months of thinking, that I want to pursue Medical School. I have already bought reviewers, watched videos, and slowly started telling people in my life that I was going to pursue this path. I planned on working for a year, so that I can save and study for the NMAT, which is a very important test on whether one gets into medical school here, and also at the same time try to atleast self-study on the basics on the topics I would have already learned if I initially went into a pre-med course. But now my self-doubt is taking over me, I'm afraid of failing med school because I'm not smart enough, or if I do pass med school and start my residency, what if I make a mistake, risking someone's life. Now i'm asking myself am I really gonan be able to live up and be good enough of a doctor if I do get through everything? Will it be worth it? I am really scared, I have been shutting people off my life because I was so indecisive, and now that I actually made a decision, my overthinking and self-doubts is killing me. I just need some advice.
