Master Psychologie abbrechen?

Liebe Community,

ich bin aktuell Psychologie Master-Studentin (BSc Psychologie abgeschlossen) und habe etwa die Hälfte des Masters nun hinter mir. Dennoch stehen noch einige sehr anspruchsvolle Prüfungen an. Ich finde das Fach grundsätzlich nicht uninteressant, jedoch ist die Vorstellung, die nächsten mindestens 30 Jahre in diesem Bereich zu arbeiten für mich irgendwie eine sehr mühsame. Ich bin ein sehr sensibler Mensch und finde es spannend mich mit der Theorie zu beschäftigen, aber ich glaube die Praxis mit Menschen wäre für mich auf Dauer sehr belastend.

Seit 4 Jahren male ich nebenbei leidenschaftlich (abstrakte Malerei) und teile meine Bilder regelmäßig in den sozialen Medien. Ich hatte bereits Angebote erhalten, bei einer Galerie (Wien) auszustellen, auch ein bekanntes Restaurant in Wien kam auf mich zwecks Zusammenarbeit zu. Ich bin letztlich aber zurück gewichen, da ich mich zu der Zeit emotional nicht bereit fühlte, mich von meinen Bildern zu trennen. 

Soll ich den Master abbrechen und mich nun nur noch aufs Malen konzentrieren (auch in Anbetracht dessen, dass ich ja zumindest den abgeschlossenen Bachelor habe)?

Bitte nur ernst gemeinte Antworten.

Vielen lieben Dank! LG 😊

I would rather recommend that you put the master behind you to finish and then give yourself a drink. So I mean with a Master in Psychology, you’re always guaranteed if it doesn’t work with painting, you’re breaking your hand, etc.

If you’re ready, take it behind you and then you’ll always have a backup if what doesn’t work and can always find a job and don’t land on the street if what happens

You should definitely complete your studies! With a master you can work in countless different areas – the therapeutic professions only make part of the field of activity for psychologists.

For example, you could do a doctorate and work in research, or you go towards work and organizational psychology or to administration or to HR.

In summary: Many ways are open to you, so it certainly does not get boring. This way you can finance your hobby and stay independent of any gallerists.

You’re welcome, dear NaKi! I’m more often on the go as a coach and mentor, I’ve also studied psychology. You chose a really exciting and diverse subject!

But painting is going well? This is a wonderful hobby and you don’t have to attack it professionally if you don’t like it. However, you can fund another degree or transition to another job. You clearly don’t have a bock on your area, then you’ll take advantage of it, you’ll get the chance to change and finance yourself through something that will make you enjoy.

This is a very emotional and illogical decision. You can always change life paths. You can also stop studies.

But after having 3/4 behind you? I’m sorry, I see waste. You can also paint with a master’s degree in a study subject.

Finish the Master and if you do a doctorate afterwards. The title improves the paragraph of the images! In addition, you can look for a butter and bread job and are not forced to live from painting.

Painter with Dr-Titel better sell?

Abstract paintings from a doctoral psychologist! But surely! That’s the combination. Then the ones who interpret the images and speak to them a particular metaphysical meaning are beaten.

Then is that so to speak art with psychological vision?

Maybe she paints a kitchen and then calls the picture kitchen psychology?
