In reply to Are therapists happy persons themselves??, posted by pinkeye on July 3, 2005, at 0:06:23
I think different people become therapists for different reasons.
Some people are on a mission to find out what is wrong with themselves.
Other people want a good job and studied psychology and so therapy is a fairly logical choice.
Other people want to help people with mental illness.
Other people kind of like the idea and it might be something of a power trip.
Who knows. I have known a whole heap of different people to be drawn to it.
And with respect to happiness...
I have known people to be better and worse and much the same.
