I am curious how many of us are employed/volunteer in a helping profession. I am a social worker in a level 1 trauma center and notice a lot of other social workers, RN's, medical staff and caregivers on these boards. I feel like I spend so much time helping others, supporting other and empowering others, when I really should be more empowering, helpful and supportive to myself and my needs.

I started my doctorate at 32... you are NOT too old!!

I am 36, and a wife and mother to 3 children. I work for T-Mobile as a sales associate. (I've always wanted to be a nurse, but I consistently hold myself back!)

I'm a clinical psychologist who works with adolescents.

Also, @@skyjones, you are sooo NOT too old! Go for it. I started my doctoral program right after I finished my undergrad. Would you believe that I was the only grad student who entered straight from college? So many of my classmates were in their 30's and my best friend ended up being a 40y.o. woman who had gone back to school in her late 30's! Do you!

@@skyjones I have a friend who went back to school to become a nurse after her kids were grown and out of the house. It only becomes too late after you die. :-). Go for it.
