Title.
I really have had a rough year this year in school, I’ve lost most of my friends and had some pretty bad shit be spread about me, all of which was entirely untrue. It’s messed up my mental health a lot but I’ve finally gotten help and am feeling a lot better now. But with everything that happened, it’s really changed my opinion on college, I don’t know if it’s really for me at this point. I’ve always been interested in joining the police, and I’m wondering if me dropping out would look negatively on me. I’m realizing it’s just not for me and I want to do something to serve my community that I truly feel passionate about. Thanks!

If college messed up your mental health then this career isn’t for you.
Get at least your AA
i agree with you bud, if college took a toll on your MH then policing isn’t right for you. Plenty of other ways to serve the community.
I would get into trade school instead. Hvac welding something
I’ll give a slightly different opinion. I also dropped out of college. Got hired at a small linen company and just started working. Just taking the time to build confidence in myself, interact with people professionally, and generally mature did a lot for me. Law Enforcement had always been in the back of my mind and after a few years of working I applied to a big city and was hired. The job has suited me very well.
Maybe at some point Law Enforcement will be for you. I agree with everyone else in that it isn’t for you right now. Give it some time though. Maybe in a couple of years you’ll be ready. Maybe you won’t. Figure that out yourself
