What is the best college to go to if you want to become a family therapist?

The best University for you to go to will the be one which meets the most of your needs. You will need to find a University which has a post-grad program in Psychology, because you really can't do much in the profession without at least a Masters, and I recommend you get a PhD if you want to specialize in family therapy.


Do borderlines get better?

People with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) will often show some sign of improvement eventually, however because it is a persobality disosrder (axis II) and not axis I (depression, anxiety) it is often much more difficult to change the bad behavior to better behavior. Many people say that BPD symptoms get better with age, while others have found that survey the format that has been testing this is ill equipped to truly measure this. BPD patients often leave therapy early, usually because it is difficult and they get frustrated - DON'T STOP THERAPY! Hang in there. Dialectical Behavior Therapy is statistically the best therapy for BPD. Patients tend to stay in it longer and it has shown to be more effective for more people.


How does shopping effect your school behavior?

Shopping may distract you from focusing on school work if you spend a lot of time and energy on finding and buying things you don't need. On the other hand, shopping can be a good way to unwind and destress, which might improve your focus and motivation for school. It ultimately depends on how much time and money you dedicate to shopping instead of studying.


How much time does an average human spend shopping?

That would be a difficult statistic to compile. Shopping habits among populations are so vastly different. Even in one household, shopping habits can vary widely. I personally spend the least amount of time shopping as possible, I even hire someone to do my grocery shopping every week. I know people that consider shopping as important as their jobs and spend as much time shopping as time allows them.
