Make yourself laugh. Physically laugh. Even if it’s not funny. Laugh.

Get some exercise.

And give it time. You’ll get over it. ‘Moping’ is just activity driven by chemicals jn the brain… your brain should eventually get back to equilibrium. This is the essence of ‘this too shall pass’ … both your highest moments, and your lowest, can only last so long.

I just commented on MPH, but now knowing your major, there is a great connection to public health, especially with looming public health problems that we don't know much about, such as healthy aging, alzheimers, etc. There's a lot of research about how the brain works that can be applied to cooperative agreements on best practices that go out to states.

Check out the Community Guide, just one of many starting points.

Get a Masters in Public Health. The doctor treats the individual, which is great. But working in public health, you can have a much more tremendous impact on health at a population level. There's so many different topics in public health, that you can have an entire career and a half just working in different areas. There's a ton of career paths within the field -- research, practice, academia, state and local, federal, consulting, global, etc, just to name a few.

If you pair it with an MBA or MPP or MPA, you can get into healthcare management, too

Literally this.

Whenever you have someone being a complete and utter idiot, they always justify it by "just being true to their honest selves".
Social correction is a vital tool for existing in a society.
Doing whatever you want and not caring what other people think is not a positive trait.
You should care what others think.
Anything else is narcissism.
