Hi! I am a high school senior currently very frustrated and confused regarding what I should do after high school. I’m fairly good at school, I get As and Bs without ever really trying, but also I haven’t taken massively difficult classes either only a few APS, i’ve never been forced to really apply myself. I feel conflicted on whether to go into the medical field and go to college, but i know it has its downsides. You can be burnt out, possible debt, etc. I n addition, I don’t want to be in school forever, if anything I only want an associates and to be done, the idea of being stuck in school for a majority of years seems exhausting and not at all appealing, so that’s when trade school interested me. But I know it’s physically demanding, and still emotionally demanding, but i don’t think i’d mind being physically active for a job, i’m willing to work hard. The biggest thing I strive for is independence and freedom from my family. I want to make good money for myself so I can escape my dire situation? What is the best course of action here? Any intel on what your daily routine looks like being in the trades, especially as a woman? Burnout? Is it worth it?
