Why interested? I’m currently taking social psychology and I find the topic fascinating even though right now I’m not the best at it. I’m
interested in counseling because throughout my life it’s helped me, so I want to be able to help others the way I was helped.

Why? I choose this one because drugs and alcohol have had a big impact on my life. While I have not done drugs in my life, I know a lot of
people who have, including family and friends. Most of my friends’ smoke cannabis, and my neighborhood is filled with different people
on cocaine, meth, etc. It’s really sad to watch multiple drug addicts almost die every day, especially when you actually get to know those
people. I want to be able to help those people.
