How I Feel 6 Months After Leaving Medicine - reacting to internet hate and what’s next

I quit 6 months ago - no clickbait here. Thank you for supporting me. I spent 10 years becoming a doctor, and now I’ve quit. My name is Zach. I’m 30 years old, and I was an internal medicine doctor working and living in Boston, but 6 months ago, I left medicine forever and now live in Pennsylvania. Now, after the shock period, I wanted to share what my experience has been like since leaving and my future plans. I thought it would be helpful to those facing a career change or other medical people who are considering leaving to share how I’ve been feeling and thinking since I left, my plans, including finding a job and where I’m going to work, and, of course, my reaction to some the internets reaction of my quitting medicine 1-hour video.
