This reply's probably too late to be of use to you. I do philosophy in the UK, so might be completely different anyways (in particular, I've only been doing analytic philosophy). A good intro to philosophy would probably be some thinking about some 'big' questions, like, 'how do we know we're in the matrix?', 'if I get reincarnated into an Isekai, does it prove that what is essential to humans is the soul?', 'are there possible worlds, or even impossible ones (ones in which, say, 1+1=3)?', etc. Not that related to other people at all. So yeah, psychology will prepare you much better for improving others' wellbeing. Speaking for myself, I have gained nothing but depression from my education so far.
The last sentence is a drastic turn around I didn't expect.
Are you thinking of changing majors now, or come to a different conclusion about the nature of life and/or meaning of our existence?
