Hi Haze,

Shelter is a good place to start for advice about housing, I have heard good reports of them! Good luck

You are welcome What are you thinking of doing at uni? I tried to get in to do nursing, but they were worried how I would cope with the acdemic side of it, coz I"m delexic, & I find reading & writing hard! I might try a better route,by doing an NvQ in health & social care & be a health care assistant! I have done  NVQs before (childcare) & a betc & city & Guilds in elderly care,These are less ademic & I could cope with the workload better! I get extra help, & reader in exams Plus extra time. Good luck with everything! I hope the concil can find you something! Home life gets me down, but I am lucky,My sisters don"t live at home! they infteree a alot!

Well i used to study nursing at uni everyone said i be awesome, but i was a worrier and i never really thought i  get to uni, people said i couldnt even do A levels but i did, went Sheffield Hallam in 2010 but 2nd year mental health illness hit, I was studying adult nursing. Ah dont worry i am also dylexic but at the uni i went too they had excellent support :D

 

I now thinknig about maybe studying occupational therapy or Paramedic :) Thinking more occupational therapy now as my energy levels have dropped so much, when i first was at uni i was 18 and full of energy, 24 and every day at hte mo i am tired, i dont have the energy for nursing at the mo.

I think get some expereience as a  Health care assisant build your confidence then try for nursing maybe? :D
