I'm so stuck in life

[FrugalGuy]

I'm so stuck in life...I don't know what to even do. Starting to get seriously depressed. Any help?

I'm trying to pass my boards but I've already failed twice. I've been studying my but off but I don't see much improvement. I'm getting older and I would eventually like to support my folks. It's embarrassing because my friends and parents expect me to pass.

Without more information, I would suggest relaxing/"getting away" for a while.

You say you keep studying, but there is little improvement.

Sounds like you are trying TOO hard.

It is kind of like physical work outs. If you focus on one muscle group, and work it really hard 7 days a week, it actually deteriates rather than improves.

I would guess the mind works the same way.

Take a break. It may be difficult, you may even feel guilty, but take a weekend off from studying/worrying about the boards. Hang out with friends if you can. After at least 24 hours of hedonism, try hitting the books again and see if it doesn't help some.

Good luck!
