Hi there, I need advice or someones take on my situation (pls help lol). I (f, 21, located in canada) am in my final year of my bsw (only 4 months left) and I feel like im struggling so much in my practice, I think mainly with imposter syndrome, but also the fact that I signed up for a career during a rough patch in my life and feel like now after 4 years later I think I got into the line of work for the wrong reason. Growing up as a kids, I was surrounded by social workers because of personal reasons, I admired some and got enraged by most, because of their inability to help, I think both motivated me to go in this line of work. But now that I am doing the practice (its an office placement, doing intakes, case noting, researching outreach locations etc) I struggling with the idea that I was once a service user and now a soon to be social worker.

side note: I also find the placement so so boring, I knew I'd be doing admin work but holy shit I am so bored, I love talking to people and being face to face with them (i find my retail job more enjoyable then this). But thats a whole other discussion.

I think my personal experience is unique and helps shapes me as a social worker, but on the other hand I think its oppressing me if that makes sense. God I'm so drained I can't imagine a future in this career someone help! what do I do? anyone else experiencing this as a gen z? what other possible career paths do I have?
