I've decided to change my major

Hello all you wonderful blog readers!
As you all have read in my last 2 blogs posts, I have been trying to decide what to do with the information I found out while doing research for my Intro to Health Sciences class about the state of Ohio not accepting any degree in Nutrition I would receive from Kaplan. Well, the decision to stay at Kaplan wasn't easy but with my physical limitations at the moment, I need to stay doing online schooling until I figure something out, so I did some further research and decided to change my major from Bachelor in Science Nutrition Science to Master in Science in Psychology. I plan on specializing in behavioral analysis and hopefully someday working with Vets dealing with PTSD and other issues brought on by their time in the military. I have learned that the degree I will get from Kaplan will be accepted by the state in this instance and therefore I can stay there as a student. I will be finishing out this term in the classes I am taking in the health sciences program and then next term will be in the psychology program and the classes I've already registered for will be counting for my core classes.
I run a Health Anxiety group on Facebook at the moment and have been an Admin on other anxiety centered groups, so this isn't new to me. Plus the fact that I have mental health diagnosis' and this will give me a chance to learn more about them, is a huge plus in my book. 
I hope you all are enjoying my blog so far and if you have any questions about my journey through college, please feel free to ask.
Until next time
-Karen
