About social work..well, you must be very careful. Going into it with mental health issues, you can burn yourself out very fast. Explore ALL areas of social work, and I would highly suggest staying away from the child aid/welfare services (you know..ones that deal with legal domestic, abuse, etc..) because even thought the pay is good, it will burn you to the core! So...take your time and try out some different placements.
Hope that helps. Thanks...
Best,
Jay
