I've never been diagnosed and never seen a therapist. But my mental health isisn good (I don't want to diagnose myself, but have some eating disorders, paranoia and suicidal thoughts) But in the future I would like to study psychology. I'm also afraid that for my mental health it's not a good choicec I'm scared that if I can't help myself, how can I help someone else?

@Yulianapx

Lots of people study psychology in an attempt to understand themselves. Personally I don't think it's as good as therapy.

If you are thinking of working with others then you will need to have your own therapy, really.

Except here! You might do the listener training on here and dip your toe in the water that way.

Co-counselling is another possibility.

@Yulianapx

It's an interesting subject.

Don't dodge the maths. Some courses dodge the maths and it's difficult to get a job in the field afterwards.
