Re: not coping

Thanks @Lee82 for your kind words. I would need more qualifications to ibe able teach. That takes money, energy and concentration. Things I'm in short supply of.

I have actually attempted to study post graduate courses in the last few years. I was studying mental health nursing last year but deferred until this year. It was very challenging. I'm hoping I can pick it back up in semester 2.

Re: not coping

Wow 3 years is a long time. You 2 must have a great connection. That is so nice to see. Well thank you for saying that @Sans911 being here right now is helping to distract me a lot because right now I'm not doing so good.

@Lee82

Joethelionis one of our moderators. I saw him 'lurking' and behind the support button.

Sometimes they pop up and say hello. A few years ago the forums were smaller in numbers and the moderators then used to be more involved in forum discussions. But that's changed now. Some forum members know lots of the moderators but I only know a few.

Re: not coping

I think @outlander has been here about 4 years. Is that right outlander?

If you click on someone's profile pic @Lee82 it tells you how long they have been here. The problem is though that some people leave the forums and return with a new user name. I know a few here that have done that but obviously I can't say. Sometimes it's because their privacy is breached. Sometimes it's other reasons. Sometimes people leave and we don't know why.

Re: not coping

I completely understand about needing money, energy and concentration @Sans911 . That's where I was at a few years ago when I was wanting to get back to architecture. Not to mention I had 2 young boys to look after. Sometimes what we want and desire is just not possible to get.
I really do hope you are able to pick up the post grad you were studying next semester. Knowledge is a great power to have.

Re: not coping

@Lee82 it's been super to chat with you but I need to sleep. I think @outlander has nodded off which is good as she's been really struggling today.

I just saw Ant7 and greenpea on Good Morning thread I'm sure they would welcome your company.

If you click on the link below it'll take you there. I posted a link there also to a funny clip. It's in a recent post to greenpea.
