This is hella important and a very real fear. I& #39;m 31 and graduating next year.
Granted, I& #39;ve been taking courses and switching degrees and dealing with medical stuff and constantly restarting since I was 18 but I& #39;ve felt like I was too old for school since 22. https://twitter.com/Laurenaaah_/status/1293814644512038913">https://twitter.com/Laurenaaa...

The debt is hella bad. Somehow manic episodes seemed to coincide with enrollment periods. I& #39;m going to go ahead and blame that.
On that note, deep depression often coincided with midterms.

Also worth remembering is that it& #39;s okay if you don& #39;t want to or can& #39;t go to a university for whatever reason. It& #39;s shitty that the United States makes higher education both important and impossible for a lot of people.
Just don& #39;t let age be the determining factor if possible.

I receive tuition reduction because my wife works at a college. If she didn& #39;t, my chances of graduating would be gone at this point.
I definitely recognize my privilege in this regard. I want to be clear on that. And I, again, recognize that the gatekeeping sucks suuuper bad.
