I do and I was a research assistant....in psychiatry.  You can get paid about 20,000 a year for it but you  have to live around a big research institution.  Another option is a psych tech (regular staff)...at a hospital.  I had to go to graduate school to really do much with the degree.

Psychiatrists can prescribe drugs.  So I guess it's a matter of whether or not you need drugs.  See a psychologist first and see what they say.

A psychiatrist is a medical doctor. A psychologist may hold a doctoral degree (Ph.D.) and be called "doctor"; but, is not a medical doctor (M.D.). A psychologist primarily aids his patients by counseling and psychotherapy. A psychiatrist may also perform psychotherapy; but, in addition, can prescribe medications. Cases of serious mental illnes are treated by psychiatrists.

Anything, and I mean ANYTHING, in the nursing field.  There are also medical-related jobs not involving direct patient care, like medical records, which I am going to school for right now.  Medical is definitely a good way to go, but always keep your own interests at heart.

For a clinical psychologist, you would major in psychology in college then go on to your masters and folow that with a doctorate (PhD).  You woul dneed to focus on your core courses for this degree which would be like child development, abnormal psychology, etc.  You would also have your general education requirements which you get at any college where you pursue a bachelor's degree\n\nTo be a Psychiatrist, you MUST go to medical school (4 years).  For undergrad, you should major in a pre-med program or something in the sciences.  You could also major in psychology, but you need certain core courses in order to be able to get into a medical school.  Also, you have to take the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) before you can get into med school.  This test is very science heacy with some reading sections.  It is difficult, but taking the science courses throughout college will help you.  After you finish your medical school education you have to do your internship and residency which for a psychiatrist is I think 4-6 years after medical school. \n\nYou should get online to different medical school websites to check out their admission requirements which will give you a better idea of what you may be interested in. \n\nAs far as who makes more, in general psychiatrists would make more.  But this is heavily dependent on where you work, and how good you are at what you do.  I know psychologists who make more than some psychiatrists, but this isn't the norm.  Psychiatrists usually make more.\n\nHope this helps and good luck to you in your future decisions and career!

Yes, if you have a passion for the field and are good at it. Otherwise, I'd suggest other ways to earn money.\nBe sure to distinguish between a psychiatrist and psychologist. A psychiatrist is a medical doctor first, and is able (and often willing) to prescribe drugs as a part of therapy.\nA psychologist specializes more in cognitive or behavioral treatments, and typically is not able to prescribe drugs.\nMonetarily, psychiatrists are likely to earn significantly more in their careers. As far as happiness, I think you will find that both psychiatrists and psychologists enjoy the challenge of making a difference in people's lives.
