  • It really depends about the time off. In reality you will have a good inkling of what your degree level will be just after Christmas, also finals ( if you sit exams) will be over in May, so you will be finished quite early and could now start applying for graduate programs. I would also start targetting companies you want to work for and getting the work experience you need, which will give you a good job. That's my opinion as you are so close to it and really it is less than a year..during which you are moving forwards..which i reckon will ultimately help your depression and clear debts.
    Why not post this on the student board?

    It's a big decision NAGH although my gutt reaction would be to say just keep going it depends on soooo many things... and "not all debt is bad debt" remember! if you see this final year as an investment in your future maybe you could keep going but then again if you think that mentally it would help to have time out then then maybe you need to take this break. Just take your time and don't rush your decision. Whatever you decide your cheerleaders will be here to support you. x

  • Good points BOB - thank you.

    I am really concerned about the depression really fcuking up my year, and this year contributes a huge percentage of my final degree classification.

    Thanks skint *hugs*

    Will my cheerleaders be wearing skimpy outfits?

    It isn't all about my debt, my reason for thinking of taking a break, but I know it would be a great opportunity to get on an even keel again. Something I have not been on for sooo long. (Oh, and I could afford new shoes then too)

    of course we will be NAGH, sadly for you we all seem to be female though.;) although as Jinky can back me up - it's bloomin cold up here at the mo! we could have ankle warmers just like Fame though...

    are you seeing anyone to get you through the depression? maybe you prefer to do it on your own but it could help. love the way that despite being down you are still thinking about shoes though - you're such a girl!:p

    I am going back to see the Doc soon - maybe get back on the pills. I am feeling ok right now, but things certainly aren't as they should be really.

    I love thinking about shoes - shoes are such wonderful things :)
