I'm only doing one class at a time because I feel like doing more than that with a job and a lot of emotional stress and depression would be too overwhelming for me. It might not be overwhelming for some people but it is for me so I'm just doing what I can and not taking on too much and doing what works for me. I'm also seeing a therapist to try to help deal with my issues. It looks like I might start doing some type of therapy that might help with my stress. But anyways I'm not sure if going to college is actually a good idea. Maybe I should just try getting a full time job instead. I only plan on going to the community college that I'm going to right now. So I don't know sometimes I just worry if I'm doing the right path for me in life.

Those are all great questions Exploding Sun. Maybe you can try an exercise. Grab a piece of paper and put your name in the middle of it. Then write down everything you associate with yourself...whatever pops into your mind...positive or negative...write it all down. Then take some time to read what you came up with. What jumps out at you? Does it help you to think about uni versus full-time work? Any links?
You could also make two simple pro/con lists for Uni and full-time work. Which one has more pros? How serious are on the cons?
Therapy sounds like a good idea. I wish you peace and a bright future!
