I am taking a correspondence course, and I really like it a lot--partly because there is no time limit and you can go at your own pace. But it is really kicking my butt right now and I feel like it's taking a lot out of me, and I am only taking one class!
My oldest sister--who doesn't know I'm trying to get disability--is pressuring me to go to college full time. I've tried that, and it took a lot out of me, and I was a lot younger at that time. (It was about 20 years ago.) Right now, it takes everything I've got just to do the correspondence course and keep my house semi picked up. But she's got this thing in her head that because I'm younger than her, I'm supposed to be full of energy and get up and go.
What's funny is that I've always struggled with depression, and have always not been physically able to handle a whole lot at one time, and she knows that. I don't know why she thinks it's suddenly going to be different now!
Or am I just a big baby?
