I was also a bio chem major. I had the brains for it but the depression and drugs and alcohol caused me to drop out. After I got clean and sober I did a lot of work on figuring out what I really wanted compared to others expectations were. I tried it again but the depression caused me to drop out again. Somehow at the age of 20 to fifty I have managed to work as a plumber. I just fell into it, I didn't choose it. I have enjoyed it very much though and it is a living. The depression has affected me much worse in recent years and it had affected my ability to work. I still want to get a bio chem degree but who knows. I have to live within the bounds of my limitations I am afraid. It's a *****. You should make your decisions for yourself though. How I became a plumber is after failing in college I decided to get the hell away from my parents and small town and the pressures and make a life of my own. I was very proud of my independence. Damn depression still keeps getting in the way though.
