hi! someone who finished their studies here!
So the thing is, you need to see what you are naturally inclined to. I know both careers sound so fun and cool but you need to think of everything about that career.
I have friends in both domains mentioned and i saw what they were like and their traits that helped them.
For example, an actor reads a lot, and usually not easy novels. Would you be ok with that? Would you be ok with being timed on reading a book? (like you have 2 weeks to read and understand this really big book cuz you booked a role). Are you agile, flexible? Can you dance? Or can you learn to dance? (as in, you dont have 2 left legs). Are you funny? Are you if you fuck up in front of like 80 people? etc etc
When it comes to a psychologist, you have 2 paths: therapy or research. Lets say you think to go the therapy route: are you ok to hear a lot of fucked up stuff? Are you patient enough to tell someone the same thing in 4 different ways? Are you ready to read a loooot of books in university? And to do math? (yes, they do statistics).
So my only advice is to do a bit of research and follow your intuition.
Good luck!
Well to answer the actor-related questions : yes i can read pretty complex books, i can also be okay with being timed to read a book (i guess it's the same as being timed to learn a script as i have done in theatre before), i am pretty much agile and flexible in a body way and schedule way, i can learn dances pretty fast (i used to do that a lot), i guess i am funny bcuz My friends laughs a lot to what i say, if i Fuck up infront of a crowd i would keep going and catch myself up
And for psychology: I am pretty much ok hearing 'fucked up' things, i am someone who is patient in required situations, i can get myself to read a lot of books if i motivate myself but i am BAD at maths tho 😓
