Studying medicine, have perhaps one disadvantage. It shows us perhaps that deep down, however idealistic and cheery of us, there's one part of us, perhaps lying somewhere deep in our basal ganglia. That says, life is futile.

But studying medicine, also teaches us, that although that may be true, that pathway is normally inhibited. Perhaps by the dopaminergic pathway, or perhaps GABA-ergic. But whichever the case, I think i am writing nonsense. and should probably hit the books again.
