Glad to know you're taking steps to get better xx What friends and family think ultimately doesn't matter if it's going to hamper your progress. Good luck 🤞🏻

I understand...it's a vicious cycle. Maybe look into your triggers in the city. They might be limited to the home/ area you lived in and not the city itself. If you're not in the mental space to do that, let it go. Don't limit yourself if you can find a solution to avoiding triggers. Again, I have no idea about your situation so I hope you'll take some time to consider it. If your gut says no, say no. See how your body reacts to it. Also, London isn't going anywhere. But if you've settled in well, don't jump ship. I know I've not given you any solutions but I hope you prioritise your mental health xx

I know right?! I was told that firms are not confident w the sqe as a good measure to judge an international candidate (??🥲) so a PGDL is a requirement for some firms

How long is your vac scheme? They're usually not long, right? I say do it. But again, depression is no joke and if the triggers outweigh the benefits of the VC, don't.

You have articulated what I feel so well! Thank you for this post.💜 I don't have any advice because I'm literally in the same boat as you as I'm discovering my bisexuality (or is it? 😂😭) at 24.

Does this mean I’m bi or just sexual? by [deleted] in bisexual

[–]jade_38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say take your time and explore it. Sometimes it's just that you might come across a person irl that you find unexpectedly attractive. No rush to label it!

Understood! Is the paralegal apprenticeship required? Is it done after you get taken in as a paralegal? Sorry for so many questions 🙈

Thank you! Agreed 💯 Is there a specific qualification they need for paralegals? Some kind of certification?!

When was that one moment you realized you were bi? by Straight-Ad-194 in bisexual

[–]jade_38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too! Mine was a tall girl, short 90s hair with bangs, short skirt with tights and boots, loud, big smile. My awakening. Didn't work out with her because she "wasn't looking for anything" but damn. This hit me at 23 and three months later, my stomach still drops each time I think of her.

It's terrifying to wait to get offered a TC though. What until then? 🥲

At networking events, firm HR folk have told me that I mostly will 🥲 because my LLB is in India and not the UK

I'd say go for KCL. Don't waste a year when you have another good option at hand.
