Re: Career you wanted at 10 vs what you want to be now - March 10th 2020, 11:03 PM

When I was 10, I wanted to work with animals, specifically dogs. When I was younger than 10, I wanted to be a vet, but as I grew, I learned about the more realistic side of being a vet and realised that I didn't think I could handle it. But I still wanted to work with dogs, though I didn't know what.

I later wanted to be a teacher, but again realised it wasn't something I could handle. Then a counsellor, and similar kind of problems with that. I'm not working at the moment and don't have any career plans as such but I'd like to do something in terms of support/research/advocacy in the realm of mental health and/or autism.

That said, I haven't completely ruled out counselling or working with dogs/animals in some capacity either!
