Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I was a topper in my three semesters. Now, I have a fear that I will lose my topper position in my fourth semester. Due to this fear, I am unable to focus on my studies.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

If you concentrate on your rank, you will not get it. You need to concentrate on your studies and enjoy your journey to build your career. Ranking is not an important factor but skill and knowledge are important. If you are good in skill and knowledge, you will get a good rank automatically. So enjoy learning rather than focusing on ranks. Live a healthy lifestyle. Start doing exercises daily for 30 to 40 minutes. Do meditation daily for 20 minutes which helps to increase your concentration. Spend some quality time with your friends and family. Spend 20 minutes daily for any creative hobbies like reading books, learning music, singing song, and writing journals. Be bold and confident to face any problems. Live your life and do not spend it.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
