This is my Newbattle College in Dalkeith the best College ever for students who have experienced difficulties. Look at the old history dated look it was quite a privilege getting to study here. The teachers were great for psychology, history, politics and Sociology the four teachers who tutored me the most. Study is possible with Chronic Fatigue I had recovered by now but the pain and misery was far from over. I had insomnia all year this was first time staying in halls away from home. I missed my mum a lot and would cry on the phone everyday. I came home once a week to start with or every weekend. We had breakfast lunch and dinner served daily. My social anxiety was so bad I lost my voice every night at the table. I suddenly had the most hoarse voice and my mental health was awful. I would feel nervous all the time around people then stay in my room unsure what to do then having to do my homework whilst living away from home was an odd experience. I didn't feel independent I don't know why. I did my first washes as well and had one good friend and 2 other girls who became good friends as well. We got fed very well and I would recommend this place if you have had M.E or have it. They will help you a lot if you ask for it. I would struggle to speak to people except my friends. It was a very hard experience. Some would drink every night but I didn't want to do that. I didn't sleep one wink all year I guess maybe a few hours here and there but I could never switch off constantly thinking I had to study all the time and the guilt when chilling out. I never understand why I have to be studying all the time. I only skivved once or twice but that was cause of anxiety as well. I worked part time when here to afford it and was good for me but the worse anxiety I have experienced in my life constantly worrying if I have enough time and whos talking about me and loads of stuff.
