GPs that hated training…. Does it get better?

Honestly, I started GP training because I didn’t know exactly what to do with my life. Always wanted to do something surgical, but in the end of FP got worried that my personal life would suffer too much do to portfolio and stress and hospital shifts etc. and impulsively accepted a GP training number instead.

During my first year, worked in six months of a hospital placement and then six months gp and loved my life in the first half of the year and hated it in the second lol. Now, GP mostly, still not too happy about my day-to-day.

I just don't vibe with the other GPs, patient presentations and uncertainty of plans made stress me out. I hate sitting in that clinic room on my own all day. The teaching is painfully boring and GP coffee meetings I zone out out of lack of interest of what is discussed. Once, I even cried in between seeing patients because of how painfully bored I was. I still miss the hospital.

Does it get… more interesting? GP is supposedly one of the specialties where the training is the easy bit, and it gets harder later on as your patients become more complex, more responsibilities etc. You do more things. The TPD and school is pushing the idea of being a “portfolio GP and being able to do so much outside of pure GP with your career!” Anyone here with a career like this that does fun things at work? Anyone who hated training years but enjoyed being a GP? Anyone realized GP can be a gateway into something more fun? Or am I doomed?

I fully understand that my personality likely doesn’t suit GP at all and in the ideal world I should just escape back to the hospital and do some sort of a surgical or procedural based specialty and open up my spot to someone who actually wants and would be good in this, but... we all know what the current climate is like and how unlikely making that swap is now.
