Depending on its reason, a crisis can last a time and needs patience and persistence to be solved. First, you feel the shot and realize what is happening. Then, you will probably remain shocked for some time, and you will need time to manage the crisis and get back on your feet. Moreover, you must consider, that after the end of the acute crisis, that a recovery period will be necessary to adapt yourself to the new environment and stand up again. During that time frame, it could be extremely hard to go ahead with your clinical and scientific career (e.g., learning new skills or carrying on new research), and you can feel scared. Because we humans are programmed to be skeptical when it comes to change-although it is an eternal constant. Also do not be afraid of wasting or losing time: even if it will take months to solve the issue, this time will not be wasted. You will have found a new balance, and, more importantly, you will have learned important skills how to manage a difficult situation and be ready for the next one. The term "crisis" means originally "separation". This can reflect both the need of a choice and the fact that, after a crisis, you will not be the same. Despite being unpleasant, a crisis can be an opportunity for your life and your career-it can make you understand what you really want, depending on your ideas and your ambitions. A re-establishment of your environment can be fruitful for your career and your motivation-so do not hesitate to embrace change and learn from it.
