Damn. Too bad you couldnt sue for discrimination, lying, fraud, and god knows what else…
Impressive story though.
I cant go back to school. But i was always afraid of failing, cant afford it (parents ■■■■■ about paying for it…), worried about getting bad grades, about rehospitalizations, and getting tired, burned out, and then forgetting basic things like paying for a class or dropping it.
I intend to do a masters, I should have enough saved up to be able to do one straight after I finish.
In the UK there are three tiers of grading: 1st class, 2nd and third class.
I’ve researched and found that for each lower grade possible there’s at least one university that’ll accept me, that has given me some motivation recently.
The main goal is to become a lecturer and do part time consulting, or to do a PhD that can help me create a business via networks and specialist product knowledge.
It’s an unbelievably ambitious plan and that is kind of why I see it as impossible bc idk if it’s realism or delusion

Thank you for sharing this. It helps. It’s a reality I want to avoid but Nonetheless a reality I have to accept, not everything goes favourably.
I hope you have not given up doing what you think you can do. You fought.
I can understand this. Part of my stress is actually that if I fail the current year and am asked to retake a year, I don’t have the 10,000 pounds required today to fund it.
That fear has made it even harder to get through. At first I was scared of relapse, but I got I’ve gotten over that. Now I just replay and replay the possibility of having to retake a year.

No, early on in the year I was getting a diagnosis for it but then I switched psychiatrist’ and so I have no diagnosis; much less any access to the meds that could help.
Truth be told. I don’t even know if getting a diagnosis is worth it anymore because I have a bad impression of psychosis causation if using stimulants like Adderal and Ritalin. If I remember right, the numbers are actually minute, but they still count as cases of relapse or psychosis.
It’s put me off the idea of pursuing this Avenue of solution ; which was the main goal of this year. Covid got in the way (and the psyche chnage)
Had I got stimulants I’d probably have improved ability to focus and therefore improved my exams
