Hankster - I honestly can't say. The past year and a half has been bad, I basically set myself up for failure (quitting my job and moving back home all to focus on finishing Uni by myself) and dissociated the entire year away. But before I did that I had a very active life and lot's of outside triggers to keep me grounded and active. Life was good then. T thinks me taking this job will put me back in that more stable place again. The only reason I think it might not is because back then I wasn't aware of how problematic my mental health issues can become and what all they entail. This awareness from the past 3 months of therapy has made me think on my life a lot, bringing with it all sorts of stress. But I know I used to be pretty good at just ignoring it. I'm thinking I can do it again for a year.

Then when I get back I'll have the good experience of being usefull for a year so my self esteem will be better, I'll be financially independent and I'll be refreshed from some adventure. I'm sure it's a better place to start therapy from.

Oh well. Rambling. So many things to consider. I'm taking the job. And I'm crossing my fingers that I'll be fine I guess. Haha.
