Hi! A little more context just because. I have a college degree in psychology from a prestige university actually (took me 8 years to graduate bc I took time off for covid but above a 3.2 gpa!!) I'm actually also in law school. I think the rut I'm feeling is that very little of my decisions have been on my own will. I don't think I'm cut out for law but I pursued it for my parents and they're so unhappy about my law school bc it's not prestige. But in honesty I don't even know what I want to do

If it makes you feel any better, I’m 21 and also have all of that. Leaving physically isn’t the only way to help the situation although it’s the most drastic action you can take, try to set boundaries where it matters and distance yourself when you feel it best. It’s also important to have a way to not let of this abuse and pressure build up inside you, find a way to vent about it and or find ways to put your attention to stuff you can be positive with like reading or anything that can calm you.

To me “ prestigious” just means a whole of debt. You are the one to live your life. If you want to go into law, I have heard great things about Washburn. That building is not too shabby either! But if you are not wanting to work in that field, what might you want to do? Don’t worry about age, it can be an asset. Figure out what your goals are then take the next best step towards it. (Even a small step counts!)
