Give it the old college try!

Nope, not at all...
Due to under accessions in recent years the boards are more often redesignating individuals to other career fields vice letting individuals "get out of jail free". I've seen what happens when officers fresh from their accession programs DOR from API and the Chain of Command suspects they're doing it just to get out of the Navy... those individuals either went on IA or haze grey for the Navy to get their $$$ worth out of them.
I also know several officers who DOR'd from aviation in their fleet tour- every single one of them ended up getting out (which was what they wanted).
If you don't want to be in aviation that's fine. If you don't want to be in the Navy that's fine to... if you're truely miserable DOR and it may get better. It's going to be a long 10+ years ahead for you and everyone who has to deal with you not wanting to be there along the way.
So what's your issue with the Navy?
That's perhaps fair, but that is my current situation.
I bet it is, but I feel like the further in I get the harder it will be too get it, and I don't see my perspective changing.This.

Can you just tell us what your issue with aviation / the Navy is?
Why are you being so cryptic? What is your issue with "living" the organization? You're in very early training, you aren't really living much.
I'd rather not as I would only get crap from posters about trying to skate my contact or to wait it out, it gets better. I will PM you however.
Not even a little bit.
Your perspective may change when you're 30, 40 or 50 and by then it'll be too late...that's why you should give Navy flying a shot now while you have the opportunity. Regardless, I wish you well in your journey.
This.
@Jermaine the mods can keep the thread civil if you don't want your delicate sensibilities to be tested, but if you're coming here asking for help and then being cryptic with the information, I wouldn't expect much help. A lot of us here have been TRACOM IPs and have dealt with students' issues, so we may be able to give some perspective or advice. But you've got to give us a little more info.
