I have been in social work for almost 5 years and I HATE IT! I have done case management in housing, child welfare and now working with senior citizens and I am burned out! I am making less than a McDonald's Manager and I have a MSW! I cannot be in this field another 5 yrs, it is starting to affect my health! I tried to Google topic on what other career options for those with MSW and the only topics online seem to be about how go get in social work. I want to know what other fields I can go into with the MSW other than social work?

If you have found the answer, please come back on here and let me know. Sometimes one wrong turn in social work can totally ruin the field for you. You can try to go the administrative or macro route (but still w/in social work, since that is what your experience is in).
