It's brilliant that you've got a solid friends base to help keep you stable, that's such an important thing to have. Counselors though have taken on that job because they want to. Right now I'm studying psych and plan on doing counseling to begin with and then moving up to clinical psychology and I can't express how much I want to help people with depression and other disorders. My best friend is also studying it and this is all she ever wanted, really, to help people. It really sucks how a lot of counselors seem to give bad impressions....most of my friends with depression hate going to them...

Hence having that strong family/friend base is important...
