Nobody tells you this part when you start studying, love.
You'll spend years in the theory, the case studies, the clinical hours, and then someone will ask if you "do crystals too." You'll doubt yourself more than you expected to, even with all that study behind you. And strangers online will absolutely argue with you about a profession they've never studied a day of. But then someone comes back and tells you their kid is finally sleeping through the night, or their skin's finally settled, and every bit of the rest becomes worth it.
If you're studying or practicing right now and this hits home, you're not alone in it.
