Thanks. I'm just going to focus on my education right now while continuing to volunteer to build references and raise my confidence. I'm also going to try to get over the overwhelming fear that I have of driver's ed. I feel more comfortable around my case manager so I will ask him to help me talk to the driver's ed place and I will likely simply explain my age difference by stating that I had an illness that made it to where I was unable to learn how to drive at the normal age but I'm over it now and set some money aside so I can get started sometime within the month.

I'm actually rather motivated now because I was looking at tiny homes today and I saw a really nice one for under $7000 and the more I think about it, the more I'm strongly considering using leftover FAFSA funds on having a tiny home built and buying a cheap piece of land to have it placed so I can support myself without having to feel overwhelmed with paying rent along with utilities and everything once my housing grant expires. Not to mention these tiny houses look so freaking cool |

I will be planning a tour at my local community college's web development class within the next 2 weeks and filling out a FAFSA. Once I get enrolled, I will see if they have a student therapist and see them if so, otherwise I will continue to hold off until it is more financially fesable for me to do so.
