Not Coping

Hey @Former-Member

How would you answer back to this? It's like it's a quiz, and I have an assessability plan, so I get extra time. How do I know if I will need longer than 60 minutes before I sit for the quiz?

No probs. I have worked it out to be an 60 mins based on your AP but if you further time is required please let me know.

ohh you are not wrong @Birdofparadise8

but my husband is 64 now , so back then they would say he has ADHD or Bipolar or depression and anxiety or OCD over the years

they think it is high functioning autism which means they can be very clever in somethings but are bad in other parts of life

hopes this helps , i am still learning

my 3 stepsons all have ADHD but now i believe S2 has ASD as he is a chef but unable to copy with life

@Blackbird11 , @Former-Member , @Tilz

Ah okay, that makes sense @Shaz51

I hope everything gets sorted out for the two of you.

how was the easter egg hunt @Birdofparadise8 ? xx 🙂

It was alright, I guess.

I'm just struggling so much right now. I'm really not okay @Former-Member

Sorry to hear youre not great at the moment.. anything that might help that I can hold space for?

@Birdofparadise8

I have health stuff dragging the chain with fatigue lately.. oxygen concentrator coming soon! 🙂

@Shaz51 hows the ASD research coming along? I havent heard back about the types and access of assessments from the people I know who are living with ASD diagnoses (sometimes I dont hear back for a while 🙂 )

I'm not sure. Just being here with me is helpful in helping me feel less alone.

Did you see the post about me feeling like I'm swimming in a pool of my tears? Because that's how I'm feeling. It's like I'm drowning, and I can't get out. I have this hollow feeling in my chest that won't go away. @Former-Member

oh, the usual is about 15mins per hour of quiz, as extra time @Birdofparadise8 , from what I have experienced in the past?

However each uni usually has the 'reasonable adjustments' in their policy documents online based on the Disability Standards for Education 2005 UNE reasonable adjustments page from my uni shows it and other documentation that might be helpful - there will be equivalent on your uni's web site 🙂

Yeah, I've got 20min. It's just weird that he asked if I need extra on top of that. @Former-Member

sorry to hear Mr Shaz has been a man of many labels over the years @Shaz51 xx

I hope they can do something for him to feel more comfortable in his own skin 🙂
