Greeting to all. I’m a 12th class medical student who chose psychology over maths. Although my parents insisted to take maths because I was good in maths and there is more scope(acc to them :/) in that, but I refused and chose psychology. That decision I felt was the best decision I took. Because when I read the psychology books and attended the classes, it was truly an interesting topic to discuss. This is the only subject that made us know oneself better and recognise our feelings. TBH I never knew how to stand for myself or my loved ones, but now I can feel their emotions and be their support system. This Subject made me realise that IT OK TO BE NOT OKAY, otherwise I usually thought maybe I’m overreacting or over emotional about some things. Therefore, I would love to share that I will choose and pursue psychology in college and be one psychologist one day to help people to accept them as they are and not as others ask you to be. I even made an INSTAGRAM account named @talkktous to give a note of hope daily and to some people who follows me and to spread awareness about Positive Mental Health.So at last I would also suggest you all, if you think you want to pursue the subject of you interest please do it. Because the satisfaction of loving your work is more than the money you earn. all the best!!!
In the end I would like to thank you for reading my article and hopes for your well being.
Elevate your mind
Be Optimistic and Be Safe
THANK YOU🌻

I chose Maths, Psychology, Political Science, and Economics as my subjects in 12th and they somehow worked out well for me. It's thus very important to choose as per your interest and attitude even if it may be inter-disciplinary because in the outside world nobody works with sign boards saying what they studied, we all work together and the one who is skilled is the one who goes ahead, other things are all nonsensical.
Glad to know you are already helping people. Remember you are still studying Psychology so we still are not eligible to diagnose or advise people what to do. We can only spread positive words and I am positive that you are just doing that and not anything more. All the very best!
