Last year I gave up one career with the plan of studying for another. I am coming to the end of my first year of study and have decided not to return in September. I have made this decision because of the amount of exams I have had to do - fifteen so far, with the four big end of year exams next week. I have enjoyed the learning, but as each exam approached I felt myself becoming depressed, going from someone who is naturally energetic and hard-working to someone who sat staring at books in despair.
I have worked myself into the ground all year, working until midnight seven nights a week, but since deciding not to continue I have slacked off and have left starting my revision far too late. So once again I am sat here depressed. There is not enough time to even learn the whole syllabus to even a surface level, and the subject material is not such that I can blag my way through.
So, given that I don't want to continue, AIBU to just give it up, and try and get back to being me?
Self-indulgent post I know, but I am going round and round in circles so am throwing it open to the MN jury!
