Should have time to reply before the other half forces me to put the laptop down. It's not so much the experience but more the lack of qualifications. Most of the last year of school was spent in hospital or at home (away from the bullies - I feared school more than anything else in my life). This is one thing that will upset me for the rest of my life. I was a straight A student (with the occasional A*s on my modular assessments) and then things went south towards the end.

Although education was available at the psych wards, it wasn't a very high standard. Plus, typically when you're on a psych ward you're not exactly too happy about the idea of doing exams or studying. I don't know if I could actually stay awake much of the day with the medication I was on, either.

The few jobs I have had have ended prematurely once again to a relapse - which is why I'm taking it slowly going back into employment this time around. Most of the employers I've spoken to want experience. You need a job to get experience and you need experience to get a job. Such a "Catch 22".

Never mind. I know I'll get there eventually. It's just going to take determination.

Thank you for your kind words

Thank you (:
