I gave up university 4 times. 1st when I was bashed and when I was ill and due to money not affording books and the stress to my health. I got into a nursing degree and didn't take it up I knocked it back. I didn't feel I had enough intelligence to do science based courses, I didn't think I could cope with the stresses of the job. I gave up law because everytime I sat in policing or legal classes or court cases while studying it just upset me witth my own child abuse and rape traumas. I had no friends the whole time. study was lonely. life has been lonely. I gave a lot of courses in pathology in 2006 due to illnesss, I gave up a mediation and arbitation diploma when I got cancer. I gave up a few other courses. I tried to do dental 3 times and just couldn't financially afford it and medical bills and their bullshit at the colleges.
