I live in India and my school is affiliated to the Central Board Of Secondary Education. I’m 15 now, and the next year I have to choose between Science, Commerce and Humanities. Will I have to take up Science to pursue Clinical Psychology as a career ? And what exactly can / does a Clinical Psychologist do ? How much is the pay ?

I will admit that the problem I will list out here is a “first-world problem,” but hear me out please. Some advice would be really helpful.
I went to college, got my bachelors/masters (along with lots of loans that I’ve now started to pay off), and entered a good career field. I like my profession and the versatility and the fact that I can pick up and go almost anywhere with it. At the moment, I am living in the city where I went to college, but have no idea what I’m going to do for my future. I’m not sure if I want to stay here. I have zero family here, and many of the friends that I made in college moved away after graduation. I have a few friends left, or should I say, acquaintances that I sometimes hang out with. I will admit I keep an emotional distance from people and that that’s one of the reasons why I haven’t formed close friendships in this city. Basically, I have nothing really holding me here except my job and my comfort zone. After all, I’ve been here six years in total, and have a good network. But where do I go from here? As it stands, all I have going in my life is my career. My immediate family lives about 4 hours away and I visit sometimes but my step-dad and I do not get along, so I don’t visit as often as I would like. Sometiems, I just feel really alone. All my co-workers have some kind of “base” here – family, significant others, etc. If I had that, I would be more at peace and more stable. I’m at an age where I should be thinking about settling down (I’m 23), but how can I do that if I haven’t found my niche? I feel so alone sometimes. I’m not sure what to do.
Any thoughts on someone going through a “quarter-life crisis”? Not sure if that’s what I’m experiencing but I’m sure as hell at a roadblock right now with regard to where I want my life to go. Lack of family/boyfriend/close friends in my area also makes me more restless.

My husband and I have been together (living together) for 5 years and have been married a bit under a year. We are full partners, love each other deeply, and couldn’t be more happy. Except for one thing. We both want a baby, super badly. But there are layers to this problem, this biggest being the age gap between my us. I am 23. My husband is 39. This does not and has not ever bothered us. We are great together. The thing is, that if I were married to a younger man, I think I would probably put off having a child for a bit longer. I will be graduating in the fall with a BFA in studio art. I wish very much to become an illustrator (children’s books). But my husband already knows that he will be an “old dad”, especially compared to me. To add another layer (!), he was previously married, and had a child…for a few hours. The baby died hours after being born, and if anything, this strengthened the intensity of his desire to be a father. He lost that little boy, and I would do anything to give him a child to love. But I’m afraid. I’ve heard everything from “there’s no right time to have a baby, you just do it” to “if you have a baby, kiss your dreams goodbye!”. Not to mention that I am a feminist, and I feel that I will be seen as stupid for choosing to have a child at a young age before establishing my career. We aren’t rich. He is currently building a small business that is gaining attention in a niche market as well as attempting to enter law school and become a child and youth advocate in the court systems. We both for minimum wage to put ourselves through school. But, again, I’ve heard that if you wait for the “right” time financially to have a child, you’ll never feel safe doing it. But, the pressure is on due to my husband’s age, and I want a family with him very badly. I’m a born researcher. I have looked into birthing plans, expenses, parenting techniques. I am not the sort to go into something wimbly-nimbly.
So I guess I just need opinions from experienced parents. Yes, I would like to have a perfect salary, home, career, etc… before having a child. But I also know that that might take a decade that frankly, my husband does not have to give, to achieve those goals. And we both come from poor family backgrounds, so at least we know it can be done. We will be the first college graduates from our families. We are striving for the lives our parents did not have. So yeah. Opinions?
Bonus: Any considerations of parenthood that you wished you’d known before becoming a parent?

Statement of Interest
I believe I have taken on a new challenge by enrolling at Westminster University . It is my opinion that through this challenge I will gain new skills, skills that I will be able to put into practice in my private and my professional life. In order to be successful in life I will need to know what skills I have, what I am good at and what I need to focus on during this course. I intend to use all my skills from previous educational experiences in addition to this new one in the different field of law in which I wish to pursue a future career.
I am currently a junior law student at the Westminster University. In my Foundation studies course, I have taken classes in business, marketing, communications and public relations and received distinction in all of them. Eager to leverage my classroom learning into real world experience, I have also worked as a manager, later as a general manager for a small retail business. Later I was a participant in the exchange program, where I have worked in the USA for four months as a sales assistant, in “Secrets of Heaven Ltd”. My responsibilities at “Secrets of Heaven”, Inc included all the features of Customer service skills, from greeting customers and finding out their needs as well as recommending, describing and demonstrating use of the product, receiving and processing payments and providing change and receipts.
Now, one of my main ambitions for the close future is to get a scholarship to study for a Master’s degree in International law . Simply learning theory is not sufficient if I wish to enter my preferred University to obtain my degree. So, in order to get an excellent academic background as well as real-life experience, I wish to take an internship. Why in the British Council? I believe that a British Council internship will be by far the best choice as it will not only provide great experience but will also allow me to improve my language and communication skills. I am also optimistic that I will gain many other important career skills upon completion of this internship in its unique bicultural atmosphere.
