I am so sorry that you are going through all of this.

But you know what, you are strong and things will improve.

Just look at what you have accomplished so far and on your own!

Is there a student union or similar that can help you? I have found that when you ask for help people are mostly keen to help you. I had to get over my pride and ask - never had to ask for anything before in my life because I had my wonderful memory etc.

The best recoveries or in some case "adaptabilities" have been with the younger ones amongst us.

I am sure that Mark will have some good suggestions for you. I would make it my priority to sort out the legal side within time. You can repeat a year of school which I understand will upset you - but remember - you are young and time is on your side with school.

My life changing head injury was when I was 45, I lost everything including a 23 year marriage and eventually my career.

I did find out who my true friends are and how strong I am. Sounds weird but I believe I am a far nicer person.

You are not alone
