People are giving me different opinions and I dunno which one to choose- whether psychology or social work. What is the wiser choice and why?

Same kind of people do those jobs. Both hippies who feel self righteous. If you want to listen to neurotics all day who think they're hard done by do psychology.

Here is Canada, it is definitely social work because there are very few jobs for psychologists. But I don't know in US or elsewhere. I recommend you looking at the opportunities right now for each subject and you can make a good guess on what could happen in the future.
Wish you all the best!

do some research, I think generally psychology is more higher level and well paid. Depends how into psychology you are. What interests you. Listen to others but take your own advices.
