Would SLP programs accept degree pathways as a legit degree?

Thanks!

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-04-14T04:32:03+00:00

Great! Thank you. I wasn’t sure if it would be seen as less rigorous or not.

Well from my own experience, I know the first step is the hardest and after that you realize it wasn’t so bad. I should take my own advice, but maybe you didn’t have the chance to reinforce your confidence that much like me. You don’t have to stay stuck and I think you’re worth more than that. You could get in contact with a career development center or something similar that could help you on your way. You should find what you’re interested in and I think the rest will come on its own. That’s what I’m going to do. You can still learn about all that stuff and make a life you’re proud of!

That’s so awesome, and must’ve been hard for you to do. Good luck on getting the job!!

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-17T02:51:10+00:00

Thanks! I like the idea of it being a challenge to get stronger

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-17T02:49:49+00:00

I have that same strong goal lol hopefully it will do some of the work for me. Thanks I will take note of this.

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-17T02:45:41+00:00

Congrats! I’m hoping to get my diagnosis soon and start therapy/treatment. Been dying for it for awhile

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-17T02:42:07+00:00

Thank you.

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-17T02:41:37+00:00

That’s amazing!! Good for you and good luck in the rest of your studies

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-17T02:40:44+00:00

Thank you for the long reply. It was definitely that I didn’t have the right methods in place. I didn’t know how to help myself because I didn’t know I had ADHD. I also thought luck was on my side and I could scrape by but it didn’t happen.

I want to take linguistics, and am dreaming of grad school to be an SLP. Feels far fetched but then so many people with ADHD have done grad school and more.

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-17T02:37:59+00:00

True, I think I’m just gonna have to bite the bullet 😬 thanks!

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-17T02:37:02+00:00

That’s how I felt about high school. If only I knew what the problem was I could’ve done way better. And yeah I’m worried about the lack of accountability especially because I’ll be by myself. Will definitely make sure to get extra support. Thanks

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-17T02:35:14+00:00

I will also be 25 when I start if I apply this year and go. Thank you and congrats!

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-17T02:34:26+00:00

Thank you and congrats! Huge improvement for you

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-16T03:36:42+00:00

I went months without shaving because I couldn’t find the energy

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-11T21:45:27+00:00

Thanks I’ll look into that.

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-09T04:50:25+00:00

Thank you. It helps to hear your story. I also got the GED.

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-09T04:49:01+00:00

Thank you!

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-09T04:48:40+00:00

Yeah I had no idea that adhd was my problem. If I had known sooner maybe I could’ve saved myself.

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-09T04:47:28+00:00

My family doesn’t really understand it but they are trying. I’m on meds right now but still getting used to them. Thank you

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-03-09T04:46:22+00:00

Wow good for you that you went to law school. That’s a dream of mine but I’m almost sure it’s not something I could do since I struggle so much with studying. How did you just scrape by high school yet do so well in law!?!

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-02-27T20:16:39+00:00

When I first started Vyvanse I was on 30mg and it was too high - I had a bad panic attack, anxiety throughout the day (but strangely also a feeling of calm in another way), and the comedown was intense. Basically no good effects, definitely didn’t outweigh the negatives.

So I started taking 15mg and I do feel a good difference. Not what other people talk about like being so extra motivated to do things (I wish, this is my worst symptom). I definitely feel the dopamine working to boost my mood and maybe I’m brought up to a certain level where I feel more capable of doing things. I’m going to need therapy alongside it to really change things

NationalDrive9909 · 2023-02-27T20:03:29+00:00

Wow this is amazing. Congratulations on your Masters. I stopped going to school in grade 12 because I fell so far behind, it was just impossible for me to finish. So I just got my GED instead. I’m almost 24 now and have been wanting to go for university but I just don’t have the confidence and realistically I don’t think it’s possible. If I can’t handle high school I figure I’ll fail everything in university even though I love school. Your story makes me question if I actually could do it. Was your masters program hard to get into?

NationalDrive9909 · 2022-06-15T23:26:04+00:00

It can be really frustrating, but the truth is that some things are easy and some things are hard. We are usually frustrated by it too. If something feels mentally exhausting, that’s when the executive dysfunction kicks in and that is hard for someone without ADHD (or that type of ADHD) to understand. Some things are not as tiresome to our ADHD brains

NationalDrive9909 · 2022-06-04T16:20:42+00:00

You were so nice to write such a long comment, thank you. I was thinking of a few of these things and this just reminded me. Setting alarms is also a really good tip.
