    Hi lrs!:hello:
    Thank you Tiff for your lovely kind message. it put a lovely warm smile on my face when i got home from college today :D
    Bless you - thank you.:o

    I told my senior boss what had happened with me and my team manager and she took him in the office and she gave him a good telling off I think :T because he could hardly look at me for the rest of the night :rotfl: The thing that does worry me about trying to claim CCD could it possibly affect the reference that the company gave me? as i'd like to think i parted on good terms as when i left it was all smiles and handshakes.
    I believe that it's actually illegal to give an incorrect reference hun. Might be libellous? I'd check with CAB if I were you lrs. Make sure you write down the things that have happened and when, and take it with you. Another solution is to phone work and ask them for a written reference and arrange a day to collect it in person - that way, you'll know what's in it and hopefully then possible employers won't need to contact them directly.;)

    at college i am mostly concerned about the people, i've always distanced myself from people at college. I think this because all my friends left a year ago and i never really made friends with anyone else. The problem with college is that originally when i first went there after high school in sept 2004 i had bad GCSE'S because i was bullied in my final few years and that had a large impact on my school work as I really just let them 'get' to me. Thus because of my poor GCSE result i have had to do a 3 years at college. Unfortunately i was put in a class with people who were a year younger and immature. I never really gelled with the people in my class as i prefer the company of adults, i think i get on better with my teachers than the students to be honest (teachers pet :o.)
    I know how devastating bullying can be. Thankfully, a lot of schools are getting more serious about it. Actually, I hate the term 'bullying' - let's call it what it really is - physical and/or emotional abuse. I can understand you finding it hard to relate to your classmates, but there again they're only a year older. I think you'll find that a lot of 'adults' attend classes in the evening because of work commitments hun. So could you maybe switch to evening classes?

    However i do have some people that i do talk to quite often and they are nice people but they dont know about my health and I really dont want them to know about it so it was a pain having to make up an excuse for being off for 2weeks but i just said in typical student fashion "i couldnt be !!!!!d coming in."
    So there are people you're friendly with hun.:T I can understand why you don't want to tell them about your health issues hun, although it's nothing to be ashamed of and is very common. Your health is your own private business and you don't have to tell anyone anything until you decide to. When your friendships become more established hun, you may find the confidence to share with good friends. it makes the hard times easier to bear.
    Your support staff at college would keep your health issues a secret and find you extra help if you are having problems.
    Also lrs, how about checking in with the student union - there'd be students of all ages and a whole range of activities to explore.

    I do see my CPN every 3 weeks for an hour and he's very good but in September i am hopefully going to Bristol to study law and i am concerned that if I move to another location then i'll be put on the CBT waiting list in Bristol so it might be another 18 months before i get seen even my CPN is concerned about that.
    You should discuss your concerns on this with your CPN hun. He'll ensure that there's a care or support package wherever you go to, to help you. You won't just be dropped hun. maybe he could confer with his Bristol colleagues and get advice from them and also to let them know you'll probably need help.

    I would really like to get back into some kind of work but at the moment getting the best grades at my A-levels are the priority. I've always fancied working in a prison but that'd probably do more harm than good. However i dont know, i may look at that when i've settled down at UNI and the student loan is drying up ;)
    Well you're obviously a clever young man and I'd just concentrate on your exams right now. Even when you go to uni, do the courses and look at various options there. You can't rule anything out yet hun and your courses may show you alternatives. You can't even say what your health will be like then either, so it's not necessarily going to be bad. You don't have to decide everything all at once hun.;)
    Once again thank you ever so much for your lovely message :j
    You're very welcome hun. Everyone here is amazing!
    I shall, of course, expect free 'lawyering' for the rest of my life, if you go into that field!:D ;) :rotfl: Take care lrs - hope this helped.
    Much Love,
    Tiff xxx
