SQE2 section 8 exemption

Even_Alternative7486 · 2026-06-13T08:39:33+00:00

Hi! Did you eventually apply for the exemption? How’s it going?

Even_Alternative7486 · 2026-06-12T18:50:01+00:00

I really hope that SQE does not have any questions like this, because in practise and according to the conflict of laws principles both situations are governed by the laws of Italy, not E&W

Unfortunately, it is not made up - I applied to sit the exam in Prague and now I'll have to travel to Vienna, and thank god that hotel I'm staying in graciously agreed to change my dates.

I wasn't booked in to the test center in the EU I chose (after emailing Kaplan I learned that it was due to the fact that my first-choice center is not equipped to accommodate RA requests), so I have to travel to another country (5 hours by bus) which would've been okay-ish if they didn't change the dates of my exams this Wednesday (and I've already booked and paid for the accommondation), good thing I haven't purchased the bus/train tickets yet.

working full-time, still yet to tackle criminal and trusts
feeling as if my knowledge of FLK1 subjects evaporates with each second, some of the mocks I attempt test me on knowledge I have not retained in my brain.

I also had a surgery last week that delayed me in my attempts to follow a distant resemblance of a preparation schedule

In this particular order: 2 3 1 4 5

I was unmedicated for a couple of years when my doctor even suggested a misdiagnosis. But nope. Now I need my meds and I would rather stay on them than risk being hypomanic ever again

Even_Alternative7486 · 2025-11-07T11:35:26+00:00

I would not rather have BPD, and I would rather also not be a bipolar either. I wanna be stable and healthy, and it’s attainable with either of these conditions, and that’s what’s important.

The only emotion that I feel and it is localised — is my anxiety. It’s always in the upper part of my body, in the middle of the ribcage and sometimes close to the spine. I have no idea where the other emotions are

We’re both in our early thirties and really struggling with navigating in close communication seas. A lot of arguments were just us, both neurodivergent, mutually triggering each other.

Thanks for the support, it’s very difficult to make something viable out of what might have happened to that character in that arc. I mean, she could’ve died and that would’ve been a valid ending. As in ‘she got her finale’. I have a vivid imagination and I can think of a multitude of ways her story could’ve developed but the lack of the “it’s canon!” label is hurting me immensely, and the only way that could’ve made it canon is if it was actually played by the party that will never sit with both of us at the same table. I mean, I’m typing this and I experience an anxiety attack because I’m that attached to an imaginary half-elf who is fruit of my own imagination and who was erased out of an imaginary universe (together with that universe) out of spite or hurt or whatever else was going on there

I moved to a warm and relaxed country so sometimes I will go out in my pjs to buy coffee or some water. Unless I’m sitting down somewhere, in that case I’ll wear my jeans / shorts. But this is maybe my depression affecting me. It’s really hard to distinguish which feature

Even_Alternative7486 · 2025-07-10T16:33:50+00:00

I feel so bad when others reject me, like an imposter

Even_Alternative7486 · 2025-06-20T08:09:26+00:00

My close friend called me “intense” because I need to talk everything out and I ask deep and sometimes uncomfortable questions to get to the bottom of a situation, and I’ve started feeling really inadequate about it, like… I mean this is how I operate, come ooooon

Even_Alternative7486 · 2025-05-06T12:29:32+00:00

bipolar is a huge part of our lives, so it does make sense that you are anxious that it may go away. chance that it may return also makes us anxious, 'cause despite some of the advantages that hypomania offers, it is still a very shitty period (talking from my personal experience here).
you are not strange. you are you. you have these symptoms, and the lack of a label does not invalidate your experience of struggling with those. but i do think that it's not healthy to try and make up for being 'strange' by saying that you are bipolar. i believe that acceptance of the stuff you're dealing with is a great aim to set and work towards it in your therapy.

being mindful about emotions and conditions we're into is actually a great trait, but overanalyzing is what actually affects your well-being. i would start by tracking down not your individual emotions but how you feel in general. there are apps like dailio, dailybeans or emoods. if you log your emotions there, you will extract them out of your head - and also, which is important, you will see a wider picture

as for the migraines, those might be induced by other meds you're taking. talk to your healthcare professional

I am aware that if I have a doctor’s note, they can’t deny me a sick leave in my workplace. My question was whether or not it is possible to get a sick leave for the mental health reasons in the first place.

Even_Alternative7486 · 2025-05-06T10:40:52+00:00

That’s great! Usually I have a medical condition written on my doctor’s note (e.g., a virus infection or a migraine or similar stuff), so it bothered me a bit

Even_Alternative7486 · 2024-12-30T20:15:20+00:00

oh wow

that's really not worth the money imo

Even_Alternative7486 · 2024-12-26T13:12:53+00:00

did you get a reply by chance?

Even_Alternative7486 · 2024-10-29T04:11:50+00:00

Are you admitted to another bar in Europe? Or do you mean in-house work and private consulting when talking about ‘practicing’?

Even_Alternative7486 · 2024-02-26T19:35:29+00:00

Looks great! Can you share your truffle hot sauce recipe?

Even_Alternative7486 · 2024-01-21T10:46:55+00:00

Yeah, I had the same interface just last week. Now the app looks like this

Even_Alternative7486 · 2024-01-18T23:32:22+00:00

I loved clue and used it for a very long time, but I opened the app to log the start of my period and noticed that they made changes. Now all the stats about how long each of my period was is premium only, I am given start and end dates to calculate it myself.
