An Out of Control Roller Coaster!

Post Reply New Topic

There is a lot I have to come to terms with, and I haven't been taking it very well. My emotions have been shifting based on the stress I'm experiencing. My school is pushing me toward community college when I'm more than capable of going to a four year university. I already got accepted to one I applied to, and I'm waiting to hear from the others. However, my dad told me there isn't anyway I can go based on the financial situation. I tried taking the initiative, and I did countless research on scholarships. I know I'm not the only person in this situation.

I'm so stressed out about not going that my periods have stopped completely for two months! Maybe I'm stressed for other reasons too...My sister has threatened to commit suicide. My dad gained custody of me from neglect of my mother. My dad currently isn't employed. I had to visit my mom, and she is currently sleeping and not caring. I'm trying very hard to see the positives, but they all lie in an uncertain future. Whenever I cry, my family puts me down. So, I feel the need to cry in secret.

Somtimes even someone with aspergers needs a hug.

Are student loans completely out of the question for you? That is how I'm paying my way through college right now. I don't have to pay a single cent back until after I graduate. There is no way I would be able to afford to go to college without them.

I can take out a very small amount of loans, but it won't nearly be enough to pay for my program. Still, I suppose it is a start. I always wondered if there was a Federal job I could hold in computer science in exchange for tuition for college.

When they put you down for crying, punch them in the face.
