I know I’ve been posting a lot about my FND recently and I am sorry but themix is all that I really have but anyway this is to due with my college the college won’t let me come back in because of my FND but they have 3 other students with FND and they are aloud to attend I was aloud to attend for 2 days and then they said I couldn’t come back and I was so upset I hustled started crying as soon as my mum got off the phone I had a feeling in my stomach and as soon as she got off the phone my mum said you can’t go to college and I just bursted into tears and after crying and shouting I just shutdown and I kept saying to myself in my head I just want my life back my auntie was really upset with the college so was most of my family so my auntie emailed them and we feel like the college is discriminating against me as there are 3 other students with FND who are aloud to attend so my mum has got a meeting with the manager tomorrow hopefully the last one and hopefully good news because I should still deserve to have a life even with FND I just want my life back

    aw i am sorry to hear that! sounds like you are having a difficult time and the added stress the college is giving you doesn't seem fair! have they given a reason or tried to explain their reasoning? I hope the meeting goes well and you get some good news! <3

    @Katie12 its sort of good news it’s up to the panel to decided so they either say yes she can come back or no and if they say no they’ll have to find something else but it’s just more waiting and I’m sick of it I want my life back
