Psychology vs. Psychiatry? What should I major in?





I heard that psychology involves more with talking with clients directly, and often for non-severe issues like daily stress, teenage angst problems, etc etc
while a job as psychiatrist is prescribing medicine

is that true? dude I don’t want to just prescribe medicine or just talk with people. I want to do both. I heard psychiatrists also hold therapist session but I don’t know. I don’t know the difference between the two, google is not helping me lol

What’s psychologist vs. psychiatrist vs. therapist? Which one is more "competent" and likely to do tasks that all three do? Who gets paid the most (THIS IS IMPORTANT)?

    Sky is the limit of your pay in any sphere if you are in the right place. You are to find your right place based upon your interest and skill. Judge yourself and decide. This only is important, not the money.
