I'm in my masters program and have only completed 1 class so far...actually two but the first doesn't count. I'm having a hard time finding myself in this education. It's for clinical Counseling and I wanted to be a rehab counselor but balancing school and work and trying to get pregnant is becoming depressing and overwhelming. I'm 32 years old and feel like I am wasting away my days sitting at a chair hours on end reading and writing and reading some more. I have 3 years ahead of me before I'm done and that's not including my internship I have to complete as well. I want a family. I want a life. I have so many ideas too outside of school that I want to accomplish, hobbies of mine, great ideas!. It just feels that being in these classes are kind of wasteful. I feel like I can still have a great career and life without a masters. Have any of you chose family over school/career? I have cried out of frustration more than I have laughed. That's no way to live ! I just want out but I also don't want anyone to think of me as a failure. Need advice
