I've encountered a good amount of people by now with degrees in very lucrative fields like CS just to see a good amount so down bad mentally that I'm really starting to consider pursuing something I'd actually be interested in: psychology.

I've always been big into mental health as someone whose struggled with it growing up, so having the chance to learn more about not only how we operate but also having the potential to do things like counseling one on one with people sounds lowkey fit for me (even heard the pay is good).

I know there also seems to be a bit of a downer feeling towards this degree it seems though. I'd like to hear your thoughts though..

(also looking forward to finishing Stats rn & never having to do Math again if I pursue this field )

yeah, would not really recommend unless you plan on graduate school

If I don't do this then prolly gon do Econ

Just want to do something I'll make good money in but also not wanna kms over for the next 20-30 years

econ has math. if you don't really like stats, idk if you'll like econ

Everything lucrative requires more math huh

idk how lucrative how a bachelors in econ is tbh but i know a bachelors in psych isnt

Was there any fields you'd recommend to someone who still doesn't know what to do?

nuclear medicine technologist

searching it up rn, but could you offer a brief explanation as to why?

oh s***tt is this the one where all you have to do realistically is scan people

I saw someone on reddit recommend this too lmao

this ones a little bit more involved but CT/MRI tech would be decent too

healthcare is good

were you doing tht field yourself?

and are the classes crazy

Yeah I got a BS in psychology and like homie said it’s not really worth anything. You don’t start practicing actual psychology until you receive at least a masters.

yeah im in healthcare, not that field
classes can be crazy but i dont think it's a long process? from my understanding i think you only need an associates.

in the process of getting one

u wont get anywhere with just a bachelors tho

I’ve never had a problem with a Bachelors in ECON. No one understands the field that’s outside of it so I’ve benefited from it greatly. I’m a financial advisor for a Forbes ranked practice.

yeah everyones got one

A bachelors in Psychology will get you a job in the non-profit sector or government doing human service work.

No I value my time and money

Yeah this

Psych/mental health field is more for personal gratification than a stable income/lifestyle unless you go all the way with it imo (in most cases)

seems like healthcare the move
