are you studying law full-time or part-time? @Rockdog i reckon its a bit tough when we gotta juggle work, study, our health and other commitments all at once.
i was thinking about the credits towards counselling too... i'm so indecisive about psych at the moment haha i keep feeling a pull towards it but i know it's going to be really tough.
being exhausted really does make it hard to enjoy things you used to 😕 even staying home to unwind after work is perfectly fine! can maybe save the more active stuff for the weekend

Hi @rav3n ,
I am studying law part time. I totally know what you mean. This is only my experience, but I was there as well. I wasted 3 yers saying it was too hard. I considered doing Conveyancing instead. If you are feeling a pull towards psych then that is your heart telling you to do it even though it is tough. Your brain will want to take an easier option. While I am finding it really tough, I feel at peace because I know deep down it was the right choice. I say just go for it. We can all help each other do hard things. It will be worth if in the end.

@Rockdog yeah i do agree with you, i reckon i shouldn't base my decision on the toughness of the course. really glad you feel at peace with your choice to study law! i have heard how difficult it is, but you clearly have a spark and passion for helping others in that area so i have no doubt that you'll do well 😊

Thanks @rav3n ,
it is reasonably hard and a lot of the time I don’t feel up to it. If I get through though I feel good and it is worth it. I do think it will be for you as well. I know you can do it 😊

Hi @tyme,
I had a bad day because I told a friend about my situation. He said the letter would have come from her, and if she cared she would have been upset at the end. She wasn’t, she couldn’t have cared less
