Depressed? Problems? Need Advice?

hello dear meisha.people like different subjects because of different reasons.sometimes there are certain events and experiences which affect the like or dislike for subjects for example i am an anxiety patient for 19 years thats why i have interest in psychology and have read several books on the subject but unfortunately i could not earn a degree in psychology rather i am an economist at this moment further i dont like economics.now a days i am planning to take a certificate in hypnotherapy to start helping people and earning money.i think this is the only way i can self actualise myself.we can surely help each other because we share a common interest in psychology.i can use my experience of mental illness while treating others. you too can use my experience to hhhhhhelp other patients.

I was about to take a psychology class this semester but I dropped it. I think the real way to help someone is not to try and look at things from their perspective but to really listen to them and try to understand them. What I don't understand is how can their be so many people suffering of depression but yet to little actually talk about it.
