I completely understand that there are no instant fixes...I just need to take the edge off in order to finish this semester. I'm not trying to really solve anything yet, I have too much to do right now. As long as I can talk to someone in person about what's going on inside right now, the symptoms are generally controllable. That's what is incredible to me...I've been able to control the symptoms very easily until this semester. I know why, too. Work and school were going on during my trauma, so the situation is very similar and things are surfacing that I really didn't expect. However, as long as I can pull a "C" out of this class, I'll be ok. That's what I'm making now, and I just have to maintain it. I can do that.

I would love to take a break from school, but I have one more class next semester before I graduate. I'll take a break after that. A nice LOOOOOONG break.

Yeah, these people are pips down here. In high school, the teachers actually cared enough to get a little personal with the students. I'm used to conversing with teachers on a personal level. That is simply not going to happen at this college, and its very hard to get used to.

Thanks for the replys folks.
