Hi everyone, I've not been here for awhile. I don't know how long, that whole time conspect. It's still 1986 in my head and will always be.

Well any hoo. the semester is all but done. I have finals next week. I've struggled so much these last few months. The university is now giving me extra time for my test and a room to sit in all alone while I take them. It helps out a lot. I don't have a room full of people to make me so nervous. I was very surprised that the university gave me disability for my DID. It was very upsetting to go to them with documention of the DID. In the letter my T wrote he stated that there was 17 personalities and that we were abused. Was hard to even look at. But my professors don't know what my disability is, they just have a letter from the univerisity saying I get extra time and my own room for exams.

I'm not sure if I'm going back next semester or not. I've had such a hard time these last few months. I've gone into relaps with my anorexia over the last few months. It's taken over everything, all I think about is food and that I can't let myself eat anything. I cycle between purging and fasting, to bingeing and crying. Trying to work on things with my T, but without insurance I can only afford to see him once a month to every 6 weeks. So that's it. My life. what fun!

huh.... i'm in school too and tried to ask for an incomplete today.... my final was due and i can't even track how much time i lost ... don't even know where it went... i never heard back tho (i'm in school online) so i did the best i could and screw it. my final is 17 pages... every one elses final is around 40. that's the breaks.
hope you're doing ok and figure out your school thing.
that's great that you get disability for it. i did for a while in college for ADD. lol - then i dropped out for a bit, too. took me a log time to go back. then i finshed in a burst of energy... and now i am in grad school - and i do sometimes wonder how i got here.

((((((((((((((((((((((Monty_girl))))))))))))))))))))))))) I hope your finals go well. It is good of the university to try and give you an even chance. I guess you have a little time to think about what is best for you right now concerining whether to continue with school at this time. I know you will make the decision that is best for you.

Hi Kiya, yeah I wonder sometimes how I got here and why I'm even in school. I'm getting my masters and I don't even know why. Even with the help of disability services I think I'll still fail 2 classes. I don't know why I always add so much stress to things. So I think maybe I'll just drop out and try maybe working part time somewhere till things get stable again ( might be awhile ).

I've not even studied for my finals. I can't sit and even read just a little bit. I'm thinking about going and staying with my brother. He might need another surgery, if so I'm going to stay with him then to care for him, find out tuesday. That will give me time to figure things out. School doesn't start again until the end of Jan.
