This year I've applied for medical school. I've done all the aptitude tests and interviews etc. and got an offer from my 2 backup choices including one medical school with lower grades than my dream school, but waiting for my last offer is like actually plaguing me. Im checking my emails like 5 times a day, and ive had several nightmares about getting rejected, and getting one rejection caused me to enter basically a short depressive episode.
Since medical school is so intensive, Im really worried about not dealing with this like idk what you'd call it. Rejection anxiety?
Honestly im just looking for anyone that can relate or maybe give some tips because none of my friends seem this caught up in their university offers like me.

Hello! I graduated last year in May from my uni! Perhaps I have good advice?
Trust me, I understand how you feel. It's just Fear of Rejection. We all have it when we're too afraid to tell a crush we like them or applying for jobs. People would like a guarantee on anything they signed up or even put themselves out there. What I learned recently is that things are out of my control. If they do not accept you, it's there loss. If they do, then I'm happy for you :). YOU can control how you feel at the present and what you do now matters. You cannot control the future and it took me a long time to accept that. YOU GOT THIS! I'm sure a very educated student, thirsting for knowledge.
Good luck and remember, you can control now. Not the future.
Thank you so much for the advice!! Congrats on graduating too. I really hope I can learn this cause it seems to be what everyone who has been through it is telling me lol
