Diş hekimliği fakültesinde geçirdiğim 4,5 yılın ardından bu yolun bana göre olup olmadığını bilmiyorum
Diş hekimliğinden mezun olmak üzereyim ama kendimi bu konudan kopuk hissediyorum. Bu konuda yetenekliyim ama her gün hastalarla uğraşmanın getirdiği duygusal yük beni tüketiyor ve kendimi mutlu ya da tatmin olmuş hissetmiyorum. Hastalarla konuşmak beni strese sokuyor. Çoğu zaman bu bana bir yük gibi geliyor ve kendimi sürekli her şeyi açıklamak veya detaylandırmak zorunda kalmadan işimi sessizce yapabilmeyi dilerken buluyorum ama bu alanda bu gerçekten mümkün değil. Her zaman daha fazla seyahatin, daha az baskının ve daha az riskli kararların olduğu bir hayat istedim. Karar kaygısıyla mücadele ediyorum, bu da diş hekimliğinin benim için uzun vadede sürdürülebilir olup olmadığını sorgulamama neden oluyor. Uçuş görevlisi olmayı düşünüyorum ama bunun gerçek bir kariyer değişikliğinden ziyade bir kaçınma olabileceğinden korkuyorum.

“I’ve always wanted a life with more travel, less pressure, and fewer high-stakes decisions”
Let’s be real, unless you’re born rich or insanely lucky, that life doesn’t really exist for most people on Earth.
Work is never going to be 100% fulfilling or 100% make you happy. Every profession has its ups and downs. Most people find a lot of meaning in their lives outside of work- with friends, with family, with hobbies, and other pastimes. If you go into your career thinking it needs to be 100% fulfilling, well, you’re setting yourself up to spend a lifetime just searching for that “perfect” career and never finding it.
Yes, a dentist has to interact with a patient, but you don’t have to be fake cheerful if you don’t want to. My childhood dentist spoke very little to me. My current dentist is kind of the same. His dental assistant does most of the heavy lifting in terms of dealing with the patient. So there are ways to work around you issue with dealing with patients.
OTOH, if you simply don’t care about people and the health of their teeth, and as far as you’re concerned their teeth could all rot and fall out of their mouths, then yes, you are definitely in the wrong profession. (Did you not realize this when you decided to go into this profession??)
You need a good chair side~ let her make nice with the patients & do all the explanations & u just zip in, do some drilling & she dismisses the patient & readies the room for next.
My Dr worked out of 2-3 rooms- always a clean set up ready to go & we had team chair sides ~ maybe just switch stuff around & happy people make work a joy!
You’ll be in an even worse situation if you don’t finish and get a high paying job with your education. Everyone should be thinking in terms of money. You’re not doing any of that fun stuff you want without money. Your education is your best tool to make that money. You’ll be making a boatload more money as a dentist and less time in the office once you have your practice set up than as a flight attendant. Get that money. Buy your passions.
There are other roles in this Field with a better pay: • Medical Advisor
• Clinical Affairs
What you want isn’t realistic. Unless your 10th generation old money family. Life is hard, wear a helmet. It will beat you down daily , you have to keep getting up. Im sorry your generation was raised like they were.
Stick with it, you’ve come this far. The Flight attendant job isn’t as glamorous as people think…
Maybe think about becoming a Dental technician. Less decisions, less human contact. And you can work literally anywhere.
