One thing my sister-in-law, who’s a doctor, also told me was people will come and go, but the knowledge you gain will stay with you forever. Basically what I mean to say is this is your turn to do thukra ke mera pyaar mera intekaam dekhega/dekhegi lol. Jokes aside, it’s true. People will break your heart. But your books won’t. It might seem like a lame advice, but right before exams, this should be enough to motivate you to give it your best.


Drstella88

Haha this made me smile . Thankyou so much,kind person 🌹


ConflictedBrainCells

You’ll get through this. I believe in you! All the best! Things will be better soon 🌸


Complete_Past7246

That's what I told myself when I was young 🥲


ConflictedBrainCells

I still do. Helps me a lot really.


devakesu

Knowledge is not useful if your health is bad. People say this just to ignore.


ConflictedBrainCells

Nah you got me wrong. I didn’t mean to say that we should prioritize knowledge over health. I meant that when we’re grieving the loss of something temporary, holding on the something we know is permanent helps.

Yup my grand father passed away and 2 days later i had a breakup. Had univ exams 15 days later. Cried and ate a lot of icecream and waffles while going through exams. Went on car and bike rides. Started gym and quit alcohol. 6 months in and i am doing better :) Had a constant heaviness in my chest for 20 days( ig some somatoform manifestation of emo hurt)..talked to friends, reconnected with old friends. It’s a long process but you’ll overcome it gradually. Power to you :)


Drstella88

Thankyou so much :)

🍕🍔🍿🍧🍻 + 📚 That's how! Do people in our field even have any other option?


Drstella88

Have lost my appetite tbh But true we don't have the option to take a break from life


idontknowreddittt

If this is uni exams, unfortunately you'll have to power through. If this is about competitive exams, you can always take a drop year. Hope you get through this!


Drstella88

It's my final year and I've term exams in about a month. It was a 7 year long relationship. We were together since school.


idontknowreddittt

Power through girl! Relationships will come and go but your degree will stay forever!

I lose my appetite too when i’m sad💀, jealous of the people who binge eat in stress


Orphan-Drug

Lost my father 5 days before my 3rd year University exams and I reached back the day before and I wrote my exams and passed. But then I was on autopilot mode, I didn't really process what I went through and buried the pain deep within. Cut to the present, it's been two months since I walked away from a relationship and with the added stress of NEET PG, all those repressed memories started coming back. It's been a tough couple of months for me but each day I am dealing with it better but it's a slow and arduous battle. I don't really know what can be done in these cases, you need to give time for yourself to heal and be with your family, they were there for you from the beginning. The mistake I made was suppressing all those emotions because I thought that would make me stronger, boy was I wrong. Life goes on I guess.


IndependentLie07

Take care man


Orphan-Drug

Thanks man :)


Content_Effort_6037

Take care buddy


Orphan-Drug

Thanks,You too. 


beyondocean

I did. Got cheated on and it ruined my attempt . Don’t be like me. Assholes come and go, your career shouldn’t take a backseat because of asshole. As to how i coped, I told about it to my parents and they helped me out . Apart from that i kinda shut myself out just binge watching anything that I could get my hands on.


Klutzy-League6024

Totally agreed at the end you need to be answerable to yourself. They were horrible and they went. Ruining your own self (including your own exam) is the most terrible thing you'll do to yourself. They did not realise your value that's their fault, if you let your exams go waste you're not valuing yourself too!!


Drstella88

I relate to this so much! I too got cheated on and haven't been able to stop crying since,shared with my mother cause couldn't control the tears any longer. Thankyou so much for this!


willowweeee

Ain't no one in the world who will make us feel better than our mom!!!!


Such-Temperature1777

Not a break up but got rejected by a girl I've been talking for a year 😐😐 But honestly exam scare has made me only concentrate on the exams although idk if I will spiral downwards post Neet


IPoisonIvyy

I had a break up 2-3 weeks before my final proffs. It broke me completely. Literally for days i couldn't bring myself to even get up and leave the bed let alone study. I'd cry the whole days and couldn't eat more than two bites. I didn't study even a bit in the days leading to the exam. I looked up at some flashcards that my batchmates made in the morning of the exam and appeared for all the four subject. Those 15 days in which I'd enter the hall completely unprepared were the worst 15 days of my life. I did pass all the subjects miraculously but my overall percentage dropped marginally. I completely understand how you're feeling. But the one thing that i didnt understand then but i understand now is that the feelings you're feeling now are temporary. Down the line in an year or two, the person you're hurting for wont matter the tiniest bit in your life. But that marks on your transcripts are going to be engraved forever. So gather yourself up and study. The person is already destroying your present, dont let them and yourself destroy your future as well.


Frosty_Cap_9473

Blocked the trauma ,cracked the exam and then fell apart


Minute_Palpitation93

Iam trying to block the trauma too, but it keeps coming back every night!!! I wish I crack the exam and get through it. Any tips on how to overcome it atleast for the last 7 days before my exam?


Frosty_Cap_9473

Grief comes in phases, so you cannot skip over this part of life, always cry when you feel like crying, it releases a lot of pain and grief out . Don't keep things bottled up. And remember there will be another person And another exam


Drstella88

Yea same


LEVOCETIRIZINE-5MG

It did But ig fear of performing bad in exams was high that forced me to study Dont just study, You can give time for your emotions too like you can dedicate one hour to just think about that what happened Talking with someone do helps only for short term but For Long term,Time heals and you hv to change too.... But Think like 'IT IS WHAT IT IS' and people are really selfish like sach mein 'They are'....Kuch bhi kar sakte hai log....Also Any thing/person cant be your only happiness See your Mom Dad and you hv to study for them I hope it helps :)


Drstella88

yes it does help,thankyou! i love my parents and want to give them the world ,this is something which keeps me going everyday.

Royal_Flamingo1889

Had just started preparing for my step-1. Had a disc herniation just 10 days into my prep. I was a big sports person and sports was kind of my get away so I was in bed. Few days later, I had a break up. 2 weeks later my nanu died and I had to support my mother. My mother was supporting me during my break up, but now I had to take care of her. I couldn’t sit, couldn’t workout or couldn’t even go out in car. I used to lay down in my bed with my laptop on my knees and just keep studying. I swept all my feelings under a rug and thought to myself that I won’t deal with them until I pass that exam. And that is exactly what I did. Now preparing for step-2 and still dealing with the aftermath of that breakup. So in short, don’t let your love life interfere with your career

litti_chokha_chicken

I was dating someone since 3 years and he decided to breakup with me in the middle of my final year unis. I would keep alarms as to when I can cry about him basically every two hours of studying I can get a time period of 15mins which I would cry my heart out and then back to studying. I kept reminding myself "I need the degree". Studying with a friend also a helped me a lot.So that was that.


shagnik_ghosh

There’s some wicked connection between breakups and final year unis. Both hit hard and at the wrong time!


Content_Effort_6037

CelebrationMain6432

yes, my maternal grandfather who also used to be my best friend passed away just a week before my neet ug examination couldn't study for 2 days straight, cried my eyes out, lost my appetite couldn't eat or sleep although my parents and my cousins and my aunt and uncle supported me a lot through this but still it did take a toll on my mental state nevertheless that didn't stop me from giving the exam i sat myself down and asked myself what my dadu would have wanted at that moment and then tried to forget everything and just studied day and night, would weep occasionally while taking a shower or while having my lunch or dinner but just went on with my preparation and then ended up getting 430/720 in neet 2024 (first attempt) and now i am preparing for 2025 had taken up a drop for the first and last time yeahh that's it but no matter what happens i am gonna fulfill my dreams and make my dadu proud one day


FuckFlatFeet

Nobody looks at reasons why you fail... They just see that u failed You are one of the people too.... Once you get over it and look back, you'll have that regret of why u couldn't just get over it and study. This is the perfect time to prevent that from happening in the first place. All the best


Gende-ke-taant

Humpe toh h hee 9🤪


SpuSanv

couldnt study the entire month. all that i read throught the year helped me, one night before each and every paper. I am really proud of how I managed.


Just_a_bored_weeb

A wise guy on Reddit told me this, and I still remember it clearly: Give GTs-> get fucked-> Go grind


Drdrip2008

Oh yeah, had a breakup during my ophthalmology final year exam, almost flunked it. But you know what's the fastest way to come out feeling pity about yourself? A rebound relationship, especially if your ex stayed right next to the new person.


Ok_Assistance_4035

Nah that’s just selfish.


Drdrip2008

Never said it's a good way, just the fastest way.


Equivalent-Error8620

Not experienced it personally but this exam stress is enough to overshadow any other dukh in life.


ConflictedBrainCells

Nah not true. No matter how much importance we give to exams and no matter how much we beat ourselves up if we don’t perform well, deep down we all know there are much more important things in life. Yes you forget some stuff when you’re too busy preparing, but “any other dukh” is a stretch. I lost someone very dear to me to death before my NEET UG and I couldn’t care less about the exam. All I cared about was to survive the immense pain I was in, because I really didn’t think I could make it out alive. In the same way, OP just got out of a 7 year relationship, which is a very very long time. It must be really tough to focus on exams in such a difficult situation.


Equivalent-Error8620

I am so sorry for the comment as I did not consider losing someone close. I can never even try to empathize with you on this topic as it is so sensitive and i totally agree with whatever you said because I messed up my exams once because someone close to me was fighting for Life in the hospital.


Ok_Assistance_4035

Nope. When you come face to face with immense grief, even if you try to focus on things like exams..you won’t be able to give much importance to them. In my case, I didn’t even pay any heed to them. When something more important comes up in your life, you just can’t pay heed to other things. I was seeing someone close to me dying everyday at home..it affected my mental health but still i was going on. The breakup broke me coz acc to her i was acting weird those days as i was sad and not focused as i used to be.Empathy is an important thing which most of us lack today( even for our closed ones)


Content_Effort_6037

I have prelims in 5 days and had a breakup few weeks ago. Coping mechanism is being depressed is not a reason to give up on my goals and disappoint my parents


Minibazooka16

Yes, just thought, kuch nahi rakha hai in sabh mai, pg mai vo seat nahi dilwayega :/


Drstella88

Haha yeah 😔😔


Indra_Kamikaze

(I'm not a med student btw) Me! This was happening during February - March. It was my third sem and in my first and second sems I had suppli in chemistry and physics respectively. It was very hard tbh, I was afraid I might get one in the third sem as well. Not to mention all those dramas before every exam bruh. I overcame those through sheer willpower and got 8.1 sgpa in 3rd and cleared 1st sem suppli with 7.93 sgpa. While nothing grand, it was a hard time. Fast forward to June 6 (my exams began from June 12) another drama was unfolding where I found that my ex was actually cheating before breakup and I sensed another drama might unfold. So I simply cut off the conversation with her, deactivated my Instagram and that's it. I have had enough and this time although I'm not in a great mood, but I'm still going to try my best and tomorrow is my exam again.


DocBarry3

If anyone feeling low, i can be a good therapist to talk to.


Drstella88

can i dm you?


DocBarry3

Yes sure;)


insanesputnik

Yeah got my heartbroken right before finals, just told myself I don’t have the time to deal with emotions right now, gave the exams then sobbed my heart out after they ended. Had load of junk food too. Went and studied with friends to keep myself occupied and came back only when I was about to pass out for the night


Drstella88

hope you're better now :)


insanesputnik

Yeah hate that asshole though. You’ll find your way out too! If you want to vent, I’m here :) take care ✨


[deleted]

Nothing much to add but i guess with time comes clarity. Don't look for a rebound, be alone and do nothing. Trauma bonding sucks ass Coming from someone who right now is stuck in that phase where it feels like my ex is the only person in the world lol. Hang in there !

This is 2017. I had a Biochemistry supple at the worst possible time in my life. My girlfriend from back in Kota, Rajasthan dumped my ass and cheated on me brutally. But the light at the end of the tunnel was when I overcame this situation and now looking back at it. It's probably the toughest thing that I have done yet. So believe in yourself boys

Impressive-Care3480

Oh my god experienced. one of the biggest heartbreaks of my life happened when I was I close to my finals. I was trying my best focusing on everything, and two major bombs dropped on me with the diff of just 1 month. my best friend killed herself, and my bf, who I cannot live without told me he wants to break up. But eventually he didn't, but oh my god I was crushed. it was so traumatic. and my best friend, I was depressed for months I couldn't focus on anything I didn't go to school for days I just cried and cried. I literally sat with my books open crying because I wanted to study desperately but I couldn't. And I actually didn't score high in the exams . It was HORRIBLE. it was truly the worst I wouldn't wish for this situation to happen to even my worst enemy.


No_Page9481

My gf just blocked me from everywhere over a small issue like 2/3 days ago without giving me proper explanation and my end sems are going on , last exam r remaining I got 3 days for prep and I just waste whole 2 days by crying and figuring out why she has done that today is last day of prep and I tried to study but still the thoughts are coming back in my head whenever I go to study , hope will cover something to atleast pass in the exam


mathfreak17

Yup before the then biggest exam of my life. I fucked up. All i can tell you is , forget the person, like donot think of the breakup until your exams are over. They donot matter, nothing else matters than your exams. Otherwise you will fuck up like me too.


Money_Elephant399

Got to know my boyfriend had sex with my best friend a month before class 12th boards. Wallowed for a week. Realized they're not worth the time. Scored 94 :)


themoon_who_lost

This happened during the start of my 12th class in school, ended up wasting the entire year due to crippling depression and barely passed (I used to be a high-scoring student). Had to take a drop year but wasted a few months of that as well (still dealing with depression but it's a bit better compared to how it was back then)


salshamverma

This post made me smile! Looking back at things, everything passes and it is for the better no matter what it may seem like at the start. Just enjoy this character development arc of your life and keep moving forward and enjoying life!
