I’ve recently decided to take a year off university and I’m incredibly conflicted about it. When I’m feeling good I think I can take on the world, I’ll be successful and I’m making a mistake... however, when I’m upset or numb (which is most of the time) I know that I’m just going to keep getting worse until I get the help I need. Does anyone else have any experience on taking time off to take care of themselves? I’ve been told by my professors since I started at university 3 years ago to take time off for myself but this is the first time I’ve realized that I’m sick enough for it to be an option. Really just looking for some support that I’m making the right decision..
