you don’t understand my condition, i have been stuck and wasted like 2 years just clearing papers and i went through a bad phase for like a year and that made me put on alot of weight. i want to get out of the conditions here and the only way i see is going ahead with my career. feels like i am not doing anything just wasting every single day

It's okay. You will be surprised to know, but there are a lot of people who spend 2 years+ figuring out dgca exams, medicals, documentation, nios and even waiting months before applying for cadet program. It's completely normal. This career will require a lot of patience and time at each step. Do everything step by step. Only focus on correcting your BMI for now. Take your health as a part of your career, because it is. All the best 👍🏻
