I didn't become a psychotherapist (what my selfish mother wanted me to be) because I realized that you have two choices with the patient/client bases: the extremely mentally ill (whom, by coincidence, I now represent) and the run-of-the-mill neurotic. I didn't think I had the guts for the extreme mentally ill population and I thought I'd want to kill the boring neurotics going over the same points endlessly.

A friend of mine quit her practice and went back to get her MBA, because she kept on finding herself wanting to yell "get over it" to her clients. She's an investment banker now.
