Hi Mickey,

From what I know of you, as I’ve seen on here, you are an extremely caring person who tirelessly supports others with positivity. I also noticed you post about you having depression.

If your major is languages, that is a good foundation to finish your degree and pursue many different paths.

One of my sons majored in English and Psychology. In the US, this undergraduate degree is just a basic foundation, probably less valuable than Languages. But he enjoyed learning what he took, so we’ll see where it takes him. He got hired right after college for a big company and is doing well, getting promoted.

My other son also pursued his interest and became an engineer, doing very cutting-edge things, now in graduate school. He just expressed to me he is not sure he is enjoying what he ended up doing. But now he has this valuable, specialized skill. So, he’s pretty much stuck doing it.

I also read “What Color is your Parachute?”. You may find it very helpful to direct you in what you are good at and what you like.

I say to think about what you would like your workday to be like. Visualize yourself doing something and what you would like your day to look like.

For me, I never had a career. I married someone who supported me. Is that still an option in this world? Lol. There are many, many options. The most important thing is to be happy!
