I have bp II. And I have a BA in education, BS in special education, AA in Ed and international business, MS in clinical mental health with several post grad cents. You can do this if you want. While in school I do great. I am constantly attending course work and extending my education. As for student loans, yup. Have them out the ears! I am on the payment plan. Pay ten percent of salary for twenty years and it will be forgiven after that. I was so stressed out thinking about that for some time then I realized, what can they do to me that I have not done to myself already. If you are like me and seems many of us here, you will do fine and the schooling could be good. One day, one thing at a time. There seems to always be an answer to barriers if we look. Give yourself credit, bp does not mean we are not able, we are. Thoughts and best wishes!
