Diary of a struggling med student (pls help)

I started medical school preparation. I am in the same class as two of my friends and I have other friends in that same building.

I struggle to find motivation to study. When i study for more than one hour, my head already hurts and I can’t focus. (If someone can explain why i’d be super interested)

I feel already behind, because everyone is working so hard and I barely touch my lessons. I start to panic, because I thought preparatory class would wake me tf up before medical school and shake me out of my slump, but what if i’ve just becomed a lazy person?

I cut off Tiktok, Instagram since a while and now Youtube and Snapchat. I told myself I’d stop watching series for lunch break starting today, but then i told myself ‘it can’t hurt, just two episodes’ and i watched four. Then read my book. Started working at 4 PM. Then got distracted talking to chat gpt trying to have it help me with something but got frustrated lmao.

Note to self: just give up with chatgpt. It’s now 7 PM and I worked anatomy for barely 1h. Worst thing, i knew when I picked up my phone that it would end up like this. So I just now deleted chatgpt. It feels weird to be addicted to your phone when all your usual doomscrolling apps don’t work. It’s like trying to use a muscle of an amputated limb (very dramatic comparison).

IF ANYONE HAS TIPS TO HELP ME ;D (im begging)

I hate being a med student addicted to my phone SO MUCH. I hate being tired and desperate yet so competitive? I genuinely don’t get my brain. You want to be the best, then WORK? Nope, I hate being behind but can’t study for sh!t. Make it make sense.

PS: If any of you are interested in filmed study with me let me know:)

Dove into some microfilms & felt like an actual researcher. Ended the day at the coffee shop.

Day 1/153

Ok so… I’m officially giving myself the next 5 months to really focus on my civil service exam for law. It feels both overwhelming and exciting, but I’m ready to give myself this time.

Morning walks to clear my mind + long study sessions at my desk will be my new routine.

English isn’t my first language, so pls be nice if I mess up 😅

step by step. day by day. we got this!!!!!

🌙 just an average student, romanticizing progress…

hey there! welcome to my little blog 🤍

i’m just someone working through entrance exam prep—definitely not a top student, just average but trying. most days, motivation doesn’t show up. but i’m learning to show up for myself anyway.

this space is for: 🌙 romanticize the study grind (yes, even the boring parts) 📸 share moments from my everyday life 💬 talk about focus, routines, & real struggles 📖 learn new study methods—from YOU too ☁️ and maybe find peace in the process

if you’re someone on the same journey—studying, feeling stuck sometimes, wanting to improve slowly—I’d really love to be friends with you through it all. we can share tips, talk about what helps us stay focused, or even just vent when it’s tough.

if that sounds like your vibe, feel free to follow, message, or just leave a note! this is a soft space for all of us figuring things out together 🤍
