Title: Just a hello
Post by ToddTodd on Dec 7^th, 2004, 12:46pm

22 From Chicago. Signed on here almost 2 years ago for the first time. Made a couple of posts but that was it.

Been dealing with this shit for a couple years now, just started another session of attacks a couple weeks ago and got kicked out of school due to absences from them.

Just feeling pretty down about it all. Losing those classes/money has put me in a situation that I don't wanna think about right now. Presiednt of academics doesn't understand what a cluster is, blew me off as if I was telling him I had a sore throat.

Can't afford to retake them and continue paying for my living expenses, but if I don't retake them I won't be able to get my degree and start of a career so that I can cover living expenses in the future. Screwed either way really.

So I came back on here to just read things and try to make myself feel better. Decided to post while I was at it.

Hi :)

i'm sorry your feeling down, and i'm sorry you got kicked out of school because of these 'things'. i go to school as well, but lucky for me, my teachers are great and they all understand.

try and hang in there. and i hope you start to feel better soon. :) ;) :)

Greetings from a Lakeview expat.

Hope you can get your head organized so that a doc can both Dx you and get some help going. If you have clusters, doing nothing will only set you up for more loses.

Find out what the appeal process is and initiate it.

Have a Doctor document your condition.

Check the ADA statutes.

Call a local non profit legal service.

Check to see if your state has a disability discrimination authority.

Nail the President of Academics balls to the wall.
