Schools counsel students to reduce stress before exams

Question by Lucifer: What do I do to become a chemical health or mental health counselor?
I want to become a chemical health counselor or a mental health counselor or do therapy with people that are recovering from drug addiction or mental health. I want to do this because I have had a history with drugs and depression, and want to help others and give back I guess. I’m in high school, and am going to be graduating in a couple years. I think about other careers doing things I like, like playing music or fixing electronics, but I couldn’t imagine doing either as a career. The more I think of counseling and therapy, it’s something I am passionate about and I know a lot about chemical health and mental health. I talked with the chemical health counselor at my school, we talk every couple weeks, but I told him that this is what I want to do, which I haven’t told anyone else until then, and he was saying that the way he did it was at a University and went for psychology. But he said for psychology, to be able to do anything you have to get a lot of education for it and a higher degree. He had a friend that didn’t get as high a degree as he did and now he can’t really do anything for it, but he’s had other friends do it through just getting the license for counseling, and when you get that, it gives you way more options, and you can do generals at a community college and then go get a license and save a lot of money. So what’s the way he’s talking about by just getting a license? How do I do that? And if that info was misleading, what’s the best way to go for doing this? And how much will school probably cost?

Question by Bryson: Why do drug addicts think they are better than everyone else when they quit drugs for a few months?
My brother is like 20 and he had been on pretty strong drugs since high school. Now, he has been going to “counseling” and stuff and he has not used drugs (supposedly) in a few months. I think he is jusy playing the game though to get money and stuff from my parents, but that’s another story. Anyway he acts like he is better than everyone now, like he is such a great guy. He talks sh*t about my girlfriend behind my back saying that she is a drunk and all kinds of things. Have you known any people like this and why do they become like this? I honestly think he is still on something but “counseling” has taught him how to lie about it better.
