Hey @Lost_Space_Explorer5
I totally understand your situation. I finished my psych degree last year, and at the end of it I really had no clue what to do. It is a bit of a hard degree because in a way its very broad, but also a bit restricted: i.e. it can be applied, valued and useful in many areas, but also its very limited in the actual 'psychological aspect' since you can't do any counselling/psychology with just an undergrad degree.
2020 was a bit much for me so I decided to take a year off from study before (i hope) I do a masters next year. I think personally it was a really good idea to take a year off from study and gain a bit of experience in related fields. I have learnt a lot more about myself and what I want. However, honestly there is still so much ambiguity in what I actually want to do with my life and career (and honestly that is soooo okay, its okay to be confused and undecided). But especially if you feel you're not in a good place at the moment, its a good idea to take a break and recuperate so you can be more prepared/in the state of mind to go back to study (which for Psych is quite full on)
I am currently doing social work in a mental health residential facility, its great however full on at times. Most importantly, its given me first-hand experience in a psych-related environment which I think provides great experience for me both career and study wise.
Wishing you all the best, and hope you know that you can take time to figure things out 🙂
