rough time

Will be looking out for you @Faith-and-Hope

On the positive side @outlander - you have already done it once so a lot of that will be retained a second time around. Do you want to do it again for your own knowledge or for a future job?

It is great to see you getting it out @outlander - and nice that you are comfortable enough with me to do so.

I think you know what to expect from your Pop in the future and as distressing as it will be you are taking steps to move on after your Pop - that is pretty courageous stuff to think about Hon

Maybe look into doing a TAFE Certificate in Mental Health or Aged Care etc. - would be right up your alley and I think you would do very well in those areas - and it is a nationally recognised course(s) that you can use when you do need another job. At least have a look at what is offered in your are and what is offered online - I can help you out a little but not knowing where you live does hamper my search for you - arghh!

@Zoe7❤

It had me thinking abit earlier about it. I realised just how little help i do have. If this is them now when hes ok as can be compared to what a few years might bring when it gets harder well.... we all know whatll happen then. It happened with nan too. When things got hard no one helped until she was in hospital knowing there wasnt anything they could do.

Im not sure about aged care, i am use to age care but i would like to take a different path. Get out of the comfort zone a little.. i dont mind mental health and @Sans911 had said id be good in that area too but i find it can be really triggerring so that might have to wait a little while at least for now. It is an option im not discounting though just abit on the backburner abit.
Theres a few online courses i wanted to do. The finances stop me quite alot but i have saved up enough to do the medical terminology course.

There are heaps of courses around my area for example if i was to to aged care i can do it all online except the work placement, thats the same for a lot of courses. Or they offer part time at tafe and part time online.
Its me thats stopping it (other than finances) im am too nervous and scared to go to a tafe/uni.

Going to TAFE to do a course may be exactly what you need @outlander - you would meet people interested in the same things as you and learn new stuff along the way. My fear for you is that you don't push yourself out of your comfort zone enough and that can be very isolating. you can only meet new people and form bonds if you give it a go Hon.

The great thing about going to a TAFE also is you have support systems in place there that you can access also. Most unis/TAFES have counsellors that can help you with both your studies and help you to access further services for yourself - it could be a great way to both meet people AND get additional support.
