Also, I had kind of like hormonal imbalances and physical health issues that
ran deep within me.
And at one point, I was in and out of doctor's offices every two weeks getting my blood drawn because they didn't know what was wrong with me.
So it was exactly that, like what's wrong with me sort of mindset.
I don't know what's wrong with me.
And then I think really, I mean, I went to college as a biology major.
I didn't start out pursuing neuroscience at all.
This was before neuroscience was a popular thing.
I feel like now it's very popular.
But at the time, when I switched my major to it, I didn't even really know what it was.
And so I went as a biology major.
And I kind of was going to be pre-med just because I saw doctors not be able to help the people that I loved and I saw doctors not really be able to help me.
And so I wanted to be able to help people in a way that no one could help me and the people that I loved.
And that's why I initially went pre-med and I hated it.
I absolutely hated biology.
I hated studying like photosynthesis and the Krebs cycle just wasn't my thing.
And I actually went up to someone I knew in the pre-health organization that I was in
I told them my situation and they were like, well, why don't you try neuroscience?
And it sounded cool to me.
Literally, it just sounded cool.
