what are my chances

M-3 had to repeat a year (RED FLAG) due to bad mental health + depression. went straight from undergrad and it just became so much that time was going by and i wasn’t learning. it’s stupid when i go back in time and think about how i just could have been better or done better. i had a great comeback story where i got straight As (graded), 270 step score, and now im trying to apply out to academic IM programs in hope to do cards. i like anesthesia but im sure my red flag of the single mistakes i made three yrs ago are going to be blindingly apparent. im tired of making mistakes and constantly being on go (sry for the rant) but i wanted to see if anyone had ideas of where i should apply given my scores, from the east coast lived here my whole life favorable to anything, but i just need help

i freaking hate my life. i study all day, sleep in a cold bed, and worry about what to eat for dinner. i don’t even know what doctor i wanna be rn. medicine is hard and im grateful to be here. just an ms1 basking in preclinical.
shoutout to the future derm btw
