Thank you all so much for your time, ideas, and encouragement! I can't convey how much it really means to me!
@sept2016 = You nailed it - it is all of those things. Plus the embarrassment in front of family and friends. Not to mention being unable to pull my weight financially at home. I do thank you for your kind words though - I was prescribed an antidepressant, but really don't want to resort to meds just yet. @jorgeb = I will certainly look into and aim for prelim surgery spots - thank you for that recommendation!! I did hear about the Missouri option, but I thought it was still in the works? Has it been approved for fmg's to start working as a 'PA' there now? I will look into this further as well. Many thanks once again to everyone!!

Getting licensed will be difficult in many states with 8 attempts total.

What you guys are referring to is AP (Assistant Physician), and not Physician Assistant. For PA, you'll have to go to school again. Good luck!

@Sympatetic , about the PA in Missouri I read it in a chat of usmleforum that the law has already passed but you will have to look into that.
About the state requirements for license , you can google "state requirements medical license " and click in the second option. You will find out that is only about half of the states that you will be able to get a license . The statistics for the match results are all in NRMP historical reports and then click in match reports by state specialty and applicant type. @samoo if I were you I would apply to PGY1 surgery preliminary with a personal statement stating that you want to do that year because that experience will help you to improve your CV and get a residency categorical position in FM or OB/gyn or whatever
