A question for research psychologists, clinical psychologists, and psychiatrists...?

I'm a pre-professional psychology major and minoring in human health and wellness. I love psychology and the central nervous system, and I also like studying health and the human body. I'm considering different graduate schools and trying to decide for sure what I want to do as a career. I'm thinking seriously about becoming either a research psychologist, clinical psychologist, or a psychiatrist. I understand the differences between each one and the differences in educational requirements, but I was curious if anyone any of the fields would like to share a little insight about your job. What do you like / hate about your job, what is your daily career life like, etc.





Thanks!

A question for research psychologists, clinical psychologists, and psychiatrists...?
I am a college professor, which involves teaching as well as research. I like it because I get to do a lot of different kinds of things and I have a lot of freedom to decide what and how I'm going to teach and what research subjects I'm going to pursue. I also really like the university atmosphere, where there are lots of interesting people and lot of interesting things happening.





Your interests, by the way, would make health psychology a natural field to study. Also, it is possible to pursue this either as a clinician (e.g., helping people cope with serious illnesses) or as a non-clinical researcher (e.g., studying the factors that make people more or less likely to take their medicine).





Good luck.
