Hello list friends,
My DHR vocational rehabilitation (A counselor that is supposed to help
me find work) suggested to me that I apply to be a peer counselor for
other people in my condition. My first thought was great. Because I
have always had to rely on other people so much in my life. I wanted
and still want to give something back.
But for some strange reason I always get down on myself during the
summer months (mostly August) because my Spring semester at college ends
in early May. The Fall semester does not start until August. I live on
a mountain with no public transportation so I rely on my parents for
transportation. My parents both work. So I guess you could say I'm
stuck.
After giving it some thought I figure its best for me to get my own
problems solved. I mean don't get me wrong I want to help others with
problems. I just figure its best for me to get myself straitened out.
What good am I to others if I myself am having problems? But I plan to
be a peer counselor in the future
Jan
