I went to uni at 18 and studied economics and law. This was ten years ago and since then ive had had a diagnosis of bipolar. My degree didn't go well, I got a poor grade and since my mental breakdown, I want to do something new, and start over. Thing is though, I cant afford to retrain, and I cant get funding. I cant get a govt loan as I had one for that useless degree, im over 26 so most charity grants are out. I applied for an animal course and the uni said they could help me but then as soon as I accepted the place they said they wont help me, and they'll chase me for payment if I don't pay the fees. Its ridiculous.
Even if I were to claim for bankruptcy I would still be in the same position of being unable to retrain.
I worked out that if I were to get a minimum wage job and save up, it would take four years to get enough money but then I wouldn't have anything to live on
It just feels like im being blamed for having a mental health disability.
Have you been in this position? What can be done? I feel like the only option left is to find a bf and have kids straight away.
