I am now 30, married with 2 children and I can't work due to having M.E.
I started uni when I was 18 and it was Criminology as I have always been interested in crime etc.
I left after 3 months as I have always been indecisive, never had a clue what I actually wanted to do and I was afraid of the debt.
Now I wish I had stayed but then I wouldn't have the children I have now (met DH just before I went to uni so probably part of the reason I left.
My brain in turning to mush. I know I could achieve something. I'm not the brainiest person but I'm also not stupid. I feel a bit wasted tbh. The problem is I don't know if I will ever be able to work.
I am very interested in psychology and criminology and there is an OU course for this.
Would I be elligible for a student loan? There is no way we can pay for it on our income.
Would you do it based on the knowledge that you may never actually work if it was something you are just interested in and you actually want to use your brain? I just can't make my mind up. That damned indecisiveness again!!
