1. I don't know why you would want to go into a field of which you have such views.
I think I would be good at it because of my life's experience.
People usually tell me all their problems anyway, I get this on a regular basis, total strangers come up to me and tell me things i did not ask to know because they think they can trust me. I might as well get paid for it.
2. Haven't you previously had issues disagreeing with professors & curriculum? Even if not, think about how it's going to be in that regard.

The only time I have ever had an issue with a teacher was with a psychology teacher who used to down grade my essays because she thought I was plagurizing them from a book. She did not believe a 22 year old could write like that.
3. Maybe it's different there, but in US psyche degrees are a dime/dozen and pretty worthless. Yes, some people make $$$ with them--but some people make $$$ singing & acting too.
I have very little respect for social studies degrees--I refuse to call them "sciences," even though I have a political "science" degree myself. I recognize that there are people who have mental/psychological problems. I just think priests and/or general/family practitioner MDs usually work better than psychologists, and psychiatrists are necessary for severe issues.

I disagree with psychiatrists being of utility but however...
I just don't think it's a good move for you. Why don't you look at a traditional seminary? SSPX or sedevacantist in the US where you probably wouldn't have to learn Spanish?

As people know on this forum, I wanted to live a religious life, but it is denied to me by others on account of my "disability". This is one of two heavy crosses I carry and I see it as an injustice, most religious are hypocrites in my opinion for their stance on this, after all it was said "it is not the healthy who need the physician but the sick" and this should be applied to the spiritual realm. Behavioral problems and trouble with the law affect the spirit, and might be a sign of a corrupted spirit, yet such as these are denied the physician of life and told that their only vocation is to marry. Church elitism I call it. Yet I don't complain about it too often anymore since I got little sympathy from Cathinfo members before.
Or what were you previously studying? Complete that program, quit trying to save the world, settle down, marry & have a family.
I dont want to have a family. You cant imagine how frustrating it is to want to work for the betterment of the church as a religious and be denied it. As one saint said "As soon as I found out there was a God, it was impossible for me to live for anything but him".
