I have a huge huge huge life altering decision to make.

I currently work 18 hrs a week and get disability. I have two very good things going for me, possibly.

I can either continue to work part time and start school part time. I was accepted in the human services program at the school I chose and got more than enough financial aid to cover it all.

OR

I talked to my boss about potentially going to work fulltime. There is one problem. I would need a huge raise and I went ahead and explained it to her. I am a peer support specialist so they already KNOW I have a mental disorder. Ive even had to be hospitalized before while working this job. My boss is a therapist and very, very understanding. I talked to her for supervision today and whoa! She said they are discussing the job and I may just be able to get that raise and job. Id be going from 18hr to 40 a week. Its a huge change. And a lot more stress to be added on to my load.

I LOVE my job and I WANT to go to school. But this is the sort of job I want. I can always go back to school later. I cant do both at the same time. that's way too much.

Im so lost! My t and pdoc support me working fulltime. My family doesn't.
