Trying to find out a little more information about how to qualify and what happens once you're qualified
ie: how long it takes, cost, how to get a job afterwards, how hard to get a job, income prospects etc
+ something about the realities of the job. On the one hand, helping people appeals, but does spending all your days with people who are less than happy with themselves make for a satisfying work life?

Tbh fair, as a psychotherapist, you'll spend most of your time dealing angsty middle class types who really don't have a huge lot of stress or pressure other than generic m/class angst to deal with, and blagging some time off work with some vague "I'm a bit tired and I've gone off shaving type depression"

Psychiatry or Psycholigism are much tougher disciplines, and they are where you get the proper mad folk like me, pumped full of anti psychotis, who'll call you at three am to tell you the fridge is looking at them funny and the carrots taste of washing up liquid.
