		<description>I am a Respiratory Therapist of 4 years and it does get easier. Before I graduated my teacher told me to my dismay that I would be a &quot;bad&quot; therapist. After a couple of years and after becoming a Registered respiratory therapist and a couple of other advanced certifications I realized that my teacher was just trying to motivate me. In RT school some teachers try to break you down to see how you do under pressure. I used my teachers negative comments as a motiviation to prove him wrong. 
Trust me, Respiratory is a great field, but is not easy or for the weak minded. Whats great about RT is the atonomy, you are not constiantly at the bed side like nursing. Your like a clinical consultant. The secretion thing will get easier in time. The hardest period in my respiratory carrer was while in school. They intentionally make it hard in school because you don&#039;t use half of the information once you get out. Trust me, stick with it, it will get easier once you graduate.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>well  any  of  those feilds  would  be  great for  you.  Personaly  I  would  chose physical thereapy  or  therapeautic massage..  Both are  rewarding  careers and  i  do  know  that   there  is  quite a demand plus  pay  is  really  good 
Any  career  you  chose  I am sure  you  would  be  happy  with  and  best  of  luck&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>I would first go with your gut instinct to not continue in that program if you are uncomfortable with not only the head of the department and instructor, but also with the bodily secretions (as with nursing) that one must deal with as a RT.  A radiation therapist may also need to deal with those that are physically ill from chemo so please keep that in mind.  A physical therapist assistant can be quite a physical as well as emotionally draining job though perhaps it is for you.  One needs to have taken physics as a prereq course among others and to eventually earn an associate&#039;s degree in pta and complete clinical fieldwork with actual patients receiving physical therapy to work as a pta.  Please don&#039;t just go where the money is though :)  They say &#039;if you love what you do, you&#039;ll never have to work a day in your life&#039;.

For career info:  http://www.bls.gov/oco and search &#039;physical therapist assistant&#039; or such.
