How difficult is psychology? How did you overcome those difficulties?

In my previous post, I expressed my interest in becoming an art therapist and got some helpful advice. I decided the best option would be to major in psych and minor in art. My only problem is that I have never been the best writer and, after reading some of the posts here, I'm a little spooked about what the future holds. Can anyone who has studied psychology give me their input on the difficulty of this major and how you've deal with/overcame these difficulties? I'd greatly appreciated it! (Any psych resources would also be appreciated)
