[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone who works in a law school and was a practicing attorney, let me implore you to discourage her from becoming a lawyer.  Anxiety and depression is a huge problem in this population, and for people who are already prone to these issues, law school will certainly trigger a flare up. I can't tell you how many students I've worked with who thought they had their anxiety under control only to suffer a total breakdown after a semester or two.

Law is not a good profession for anxious people, yet oddly they seem drawn to it. People really need to educate themselves better before choosing this career. [/quote]
