So I decided that I would take a leave of absence from school. Just a semester. Was in the hospital for too long and missed too much. At least that’s what I’m telling myself. I think I was also just so overwhelmed by everything at that school that I needed a speedy exit. Some excuse to leave and hide. That it was too hard and I was going to fail and so I needed to bail before that could happen. I don’t know. But anyways I took the leave of absence. All my classes were dropped and now I’m back home. Not doing anything. I said I would try to substitute but I never got around to applying because of one reason or another. I could just do a regular job. I don’t know. It just seems like a pain considering I’m going back in January. Maybe I’m just lazy. That seems like a more likely explanation. I don’t know why I’m writing again. Even writing on here now feels all jumbled. I started reading a self help book. Don’t really know who that’s going to go. I don’t know. I just thought about this place again and thought about writing. It’s been a small bit, so I thought I would.

Thanks for the update! Take however long and whatever steps it takes to recover.
That was a smart thing to do. When dealing with mental health, school can be very tough to get through. Concentrating and trying to get stuff done becomes harder as well. If you have to take another semester off, do it and go back in the fall. I had to step away from school for awhile. I went back when I was ready. A job could be helpful to keep you busy during the day. Also do some hobbies as well. If you’re someone who’s outgoing, I would hang with friends or just do stuff u like to do by yourself if you’re more to yourself. Best of luck to you.
