I think life here is getting better. I just registered myself at the Disability Student Services department.
They are giving me so much support not paralleled probably by any other institution I've been to. And I found out there were alot of similar people experiencing problems like me too (albeit much severe).
I get to stay on campus for all three years and decide on accommodation type.
My counselor threw a small fit at some of the staff because I wasn't phoned or mail despite having stated in the application form that I had a learning disability ( and some other issues I will not reveal).
I have to meet the counselor at least once a week as she needs to check if I have been taking my pills and how things have been going along for me. She even referred me to a regular psychiatrist that most of her students see which is alot, alot cheaper ( I cannot emphasize this enough). Cost has been a major factor in why I have not been regularly following up or taking medication, so I really can't be thankful enough.
To all students and prospect students who share similar circumstances with me, I strongly advise you DO REGISTER there because they dispense infallible support. For people like us, there is nothing to be frightened about the usual stigma affiliated with mental health issues such as learning disabilities or mental disorders because very, very few of them equates to being psychotic. Students like us get certain assistance that will prove invaluable in terms of academic performance.
I feel very happy today
