My pdoc actually asked me this in my intake, as I’m struggling with a lot of things. And I couldn’t answer either. I am not close emotionally to my family, I don’t have many friends (one who lives a few hours away from me), and I feel awful. I don’t really know. I could only guess is that I really want to complete my degree in biomedical engineering and work on medicine creation for mental illness. But I’m empty emotionally, really. I tend to like all the wrong people (ie teachers, staff at uni) who can’t do the things I need/want them to do.
