No, I had to repeat my second year as I was ill throughout the first attempt. I'm starting to feel old in seminars and lectures compared to everyone else now :rotfl: :rotfl:

Oh well, that is bad luck, but I am sure you will get good marks the second time around and it will all come out just fine. You won't be old an extra year is nothing considering lots of people do gap years and interrnational years.

I can make it to the end and no one can have hated it more than me. I am sure you will achieve good things and you should be really happy when you do.

Try to keep happy as you are doing great and it all come good as things always do somehow in the end.

The most annoying bit is that I love my course, I really do. It's just my health leads to me f*ck it up. I've thought about throwing the towel in so many times.

No, do not throw it in, you are doing so very well and you are 2/3 of the way there and it will feel really great when you finish and you know that you have over come all the odds and all the problems and got there even in the face of all that. I can understand how it is hard when you do not feel well and things are hard to do and don't always go so well. But you just have to keep picking yourself up as in the end when you have your dream of a degree it will feel twice as special

Why are you so stuck in I have to prove myself all the time. No one else has to prove themself all the time to you. I come here for a private place away from the judgements of people in my life. This is a place to talk freely and namelessly about things away from the judgements of your life.

Because you're driving people nuts.

Your behaviour doesn't seem normal to a lot of people, so they question whether you are genuine & become suspicious/questioning.

Budgeting will be something you will have leaned on the dole. Plus, all that achievement you have in putting forward to improve your life.
So it is not all wasted!!

I know I have a negative outlook sometimes and that is bad. I am improving now as life is going up!!

I didn't learn budgeting on the dole. I got more money than I'd ever had. So I spent it on clothes!

Managed to get a pretty decent job, eventually, too.
