Dear all nice to be bk
I went to do teaching in 2011 and left due to having chronic panic attacks which lead to agoraphobia. It's taken me 6 years to get back on my feet and now kids are older time to get back out there! I've got an offer at medical school doing a masters degree at a wonderful university. I decided to return to what I live science and what my initial degree subject was in.... however the time table although part time is a bit much 8-6 1-6 9-3 that equates to 3 days per week and then on top a full time research projects for six months and some additional days randomly placed and exams etc. It's an honour to get a place at a prestigious university but my previous breakdown and juggling the kids with a research degree - leaves me in such a conundrum..... I wish I never got the place because knowing I've secured one and then binning it - will I regret it???? I'm at an age wh re times against me, I'm approaching 40 so want to get on and get out there. I'm Looking at other courses of interest but they aren't at universities as good and some courses are in totally new subjects so I'm scared to jump ship .....I don't want to over do it and it all fail again plus my youngest is only 3 - please help
