[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 642416, member: 1550"] Seems like a trend. 37 was all signed up for college and went for one semester. To be fair, 37 has had bonafide mental illnesses. In this case he had anxiety and severe Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). He felt as if he had to count every word his professor said, plus count his own breaths and he was frantic, a mess, and unable to learn. Yes, we got him help...he was on Disability for three years with this. He did comply and take his medication. He was not faking. But, all the same, he never did go back, even after he had pretty much licked it. There is always a reason, but college and higher learning, no matter how bright they are, does not seem to agree with them. I am not blaming my son for being mentally ill at a bad time. I am just making an observation. [I]I tend to be a logical realist...drives some people nuts :)[/I] [/QUOTE]
