Tomorrow will be the last day that I work as a doctor.

My flight training is taking longer than anticipated, due to various delays, including mechanical problem with the airplanes, sick instructor, poor visibility, and schedule conflict.

I will be a mental health therapist while I complete my aviation training to help the Asian-American community.

Congrats for your courage!

I have a friend that keeps suggesting me I should take an ATC course. It's quite well paid, but I think I would trade one stressful profession with another.

ATC is definitely stressful. If you don't love it, you shouldn't do it.

Do you want to fly?

I hope you can have your first commercial flight soon. It must be so exciting. I would have liked to get into it too, but with ADD it's a bad idea. But I will try to fly a plane for the first time soon. The local club has a day in August for people who want to try.

How do you think mental health problems affect Asians differently?
