lonegael, thank you so much for your posting. i actually have three years of college under my belt. i had to quit the middle of fall semeter my fourth year. i had about a year and a half left to get my degree. but i couldn't go to classes, or anything. so i'm now six hours away back at home.
the pressure mostly comes from my family. people are so dang curious, it pisses me off. they always have to ask their questions: so what are you doing now, how come you're not in college, what are you doing for work, what do you plan to do, what are your plans for the next year... and my sister, the one who will soon be graduating, is in nursing. so she thinks that she understands me and knows what's best for me. instead, all it does it makes me even more frustrated.
i know people want to help, but when you tell them not to cuz it makes things worse and they don't listen, what the h e l l do you do then???
