Hello Amandalouise, I'm Miri and I'm new here, too. It's great that you are pursuing your education! I see that this is true for a number of people here. I went to university in my forties and eventually achieved a masters degree in education, but my career was derailed by depression, insomnia and therapy for childhood trauma and of course, for DID. I love school - both teaching and learning, so I envy all of you who are taking courses. It isn't easy doing that and dealing with mental health issues. I salute you all! I'm glad you have come here; I'm glad that I've found this place! Thanks to everyone for creating a safe place of belonging.
