I was on track to becoming a Physician Assistant, I worked the last 2 years completing pre-reqs to apply to the program and I worked my ass off in classes. 

I started working as a medical assistant and I started having panic attacks. I wouldn't be able to sleep the night before work, I would wake up panicking before work, I would cry without being able to stop. 

I eventually quit after a few months and now idk what to do. I am already on meds, and have an appt soon to see a new psychiatrist and will then seek therapy. 

All I know is that I couldn't continue on like that, and if I can't hack a job as an MA, how can I hack the very rigorous schooling followed by a job with lots of stress and big decisions? 

This fucking sucks.
