That’s good to hear how u feel. Pandemic has got us closer to our family but we shouldn’t forget that their is life beyond tht and for our families betterment we hve to think of the future. There is nothing wrong in how your feeling but don’t let it overpower your studies snd your career

Hey! Thanks for reaching out. It is a part of your career and think of it as you are going in a very noble profession, i am sure you must be experiencing homesickness already. But at time we have to take difficult decisions. You won’t be detached from your family, you can stay connected to them via phone.

Zoya Ahmad
You won’t be distant, it’s just a matter of time. Try to rationalise this thought. Tell me what do you think will happen?

suicidal ideation come to my mind
Zoya Ahmad
I see, but suicide isn’t an option, do you think your family we be able to survive this? Or do you want to see them happy? Don’t you think you and your family will be happy to see complete your degree with flying colours.

I see, but the first step of management comes with acceptance, you will have to accept that you are not going to loose touch with your family.

You will not see it, until you actually prepare yourself. Think about how managed in the past.
