So I am an undergrad who is en route to apply for Clinical Psych PhD program, and am looking to be mostly clinically oriented. From my reading all these boards, it seems that most if not all people who set out to be mostly clinical find it boring or that it burns them out quickly or that they couldn't do it everyday.
I was wondering if anyone here was that person who set out to be all clinical, found it was not for them and then moved on to something else in psychology: Are you still satisfied with your work or do you wish you had done something different all together?
I love the idea of being the odd duck who does self care perfectly and falls in love with doing clinical work everyday, but a part of me wants to prepare if that ends up not being the case.
