I Finished My First Year Of Grad School With Straight A's

[Sheer Force of Will]

When I started grad school, my PTSD was so bad, and so not dealt with that it created a conversion disorder, causing me to faint when I was stressed. At the end of my first semester, I was not allowed to take my finals because I was too distressed because my brother had tried to kill himself while on the phone with me, the night before the exams. I was constantly being told to take a leave of absence.

Now, I have just finished my final exams of my third semester of graduate school (my school runs year round), and in that time, including the first semester, I have only gotten ONE A minus. The only A- I got was in the class whose final I took, after my brother tried to kill himself, and I never should have taken that final. I should have waited, but alas.

Any way, I am now half way done with grad school and I have straight A's, when no one thought I could even do this. I am really proud of myself.
