So you're thinking about taking a break from medical school?
gpt
Yeah, I just feel so overwhelmed. I've been pushing myself so hard and I don't know if I can keep doing it.
human
I understand that, but are you sure taking a break is the right decision? You've worked so hard to get where you are.
gpt
But if I keep going like this, I'm afraid I'll burn out. And I don't want to sacrifice my mental health for a degree.
human
I see what you're saying. Have you talked to any of your professors or advisors? Maybe they can help you find a solution.
gpt
Yeah, I have. But ultimately, the decision is mine. I just need some time to really think about it.
human
Okay, well I support you no matter what you decide. Just make sure you weigh all your options and think it through.
gpt
Thank you, I appreciate that. And I'm sorry for accusing you of cheating the other day. I was just feeling really insecure.
human
It's okay, I understand. I just needed some time to cool off. But we're good now.
gpt
Definitely. At least we know we can get through tough conversations and come out stronger on the other side.
human
Agreed. And speaking of getting through tough times, remember when we worked through that financial trouble a few years ago?
gpt
Yeah, it was really stressful but we managed to come up with a plan and stick to it.
human
Exactly. We can handle anything as long as we communicate and work together.
