Okay, so I have been stressing lately because of the pressure to go to college. All my friends and family tell me I should and I was a little put off by it at first, but I figure I have nothing else to do right now. Also, my friend told me to make it out like one big test for myself and it made it somehow more appealing.

So I've been thinking about what I would actually love enough to do it on a daily basis for hours at a time. Therapy. I've always cherished bonding with people and helping them figure out their problems...I really think I have what it takes.

When I think about my other interests and making those into careers, I never feel sure that's what I want, but when I think about helping couples, families, kids, or just people with mental problems through therapy, I feel like I could really help people and appreciate my job.

Anyway, they don't offer a psychology degree at the local community college so I'm a little stumped. I'm dead broke, so I can't exactly just move away to a big college or anything. I haven't even taken SATs because they aren't required for community college.
Does anyone here have any advice they think might help?
