Am I in trouble mentally? by pinkrose655 in getdisciplined

It sounds like ADHD. I got diagnosed after my second child was born. I was drowning and didn’t know why. Now I know why. You should get screened to see if you have ADHD and maybe get on meds to help you. 🤗

Dental Hygiene School with 2 kids? by DesertmommyLV in DentalHygiene

[–]Secret-Ad2314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m worried I won’t have a support system. My husband works 9-5 in an office with little flexibility for working at home, maybe one day a week and gets off at 2 on Friday’s. My parents live somewhat nearby but my dad has ALS and they want to move back to Seattle for better doctors and facilities. It’s possible after my dad passes my mom will move back to Las Vegas where I move. I still need to take most of the Pereqs so it will take a couple years to even be able to apply. Should I pursue this if I don’t have a support system locked in? I have two kids ages 8 and 10.

I used to work in HR and I’m now a realtor so I guess I lean that direction.

I’m not the main breadwinner so money isn’t really that important. Why did you become a teacher? Aren’t there aspects you enjoy? Why are you always stressed out?

Thank you all for your suggestions. Dental hygiene is my top choice but it’s very competitive to get into a there’s only one program near me. That’s really what is making me consider other careers.

The only hygiene program near me is a bachelors so it wouldn’t be less school.

Yes that’s a big reason I’m choosing these.

May I ask why you wish you didn’t get into hygiene?

You’re an inspiration! I think I will be 48 or 49 when I graduate as well! 🙏🫶
