>Spent 3 weeks in a psych ward, recovered. Took meds, exercised, never touched drugs/alcohol again

My psychosis happened last year. My Doctors have given me a clean bill of health, although i'm still checking in every other week. I've just been at home working odd jobs and stuff in the mean time. Doctors are happy with me going back to Law School and looking at Law Jobs. I'm obviously a special case, so they can't really comment on what it's like for me to go into that industry.

The type of Law i was looking at was commercial law, which inherently carries a great business/finance element to it, and is 'reasonably' similar to working in financial/professional services. I still follow all the news, read the blogs,follow the markets etc.

I go back to Law School next month, to finish my degree. I'm just wondering if you guys think I should still consider a career in Law, or whether you think I'm not cut out for the industry.

Any questions i'm happy to answer

>tl:dr; glittering law career halted by mental illness. now I've recovered, should I go back ?
