Please bear with me, I'm trying to figure some things out.

What I'm looking to do is help people with mental health issues, like BPD or Bipolar, with the in between stuff that therapists, psychologists, and Psychiatrists don't cover.

I'm getting confused on which point you need to have a degree or license and at which point you can give "advice" and not get in trouble. I do potentially want to charge money if legal.

This isn't a post about only going to professionals and such. I'm just exploring an idea in my head.

Thanks.
