286 QA Reputation0 | Mark said 10 years, 10 months ago: What do you want to do? Research? Counseling? What is it? I personally am interested in doing crisis counseling. I’m interested in working in inpatient units in hospitals (specifically for adolescents) or working/volunteering for suicide hotlines. I think I have a knack for helping people who are contemplating suicide or find themselves in dark places. I have absolutely no interest in research psychology, but I respect those that do. | |

I enjoy a mix of situations. Due to family history alcoholism and mental illness are dear to my heart and I would really like to make a difference volunteering in my community. I have to free up more time to do this successfully though. | |

160 QA Reputation51 | crystal said 10 years, 8 months ago: I really want to be some sort of researcher. Criminal psychology fascinates me too. I don’t want to be a type of therapist or anything medical. I want to know why people do what they do. Is there something that relates to this? Please help, I’m willing to do many years of school. | |
