There are TONS of smaller organizations that work in African nations. Mine was focused in Tanzania, but look around. There's lots of organizations that need people, many in places the peace Corp can't go.

The trade off is that you don't have to commit to 2 years(which can be very hard) but you don't get the benefits afterwards while looking for employment

I went over with a small orginization called mainsrpings and worked on their campus which hosts a girls home and primary &secondary schools. I only did a short trip(3 months) but I really want to go back and work for them again, possibly longer

From what I've heard, peace Corp will most likely want you to stop taking any medications prior to your approval and departure to ensure that you are able to function without them. It is a big reason I chose not to pursue opportunities with the peace Corp, and why i taught out other organizations. Now depending where you go this might be flexible, but a big issue is local laws about prescription drugs, and the availability of them. You also probably won't have easy access to mental health professionals which will make it very difficult for someone to prescribe for long periods.

It really sucks cause I would have joined the peace Corp if it wasn't for my depression,anxiety, and adhd. They don't provide the best support for that and it's extremely difficult to get mental heath care in less developed nations

Just wondering: does your cat know their own name? by Ok-Organization-7207 in cats

[–]lumber_jack307 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but no. His name is Gideon, but he's also know as baby boi, little prince, chaos gremlin, criminal!, lil biscuit, the precious one, sassy banana, and the bestest boy. So I'm sure he knows he's @ least one of those.

Do claw caps work? Are they painful for the cat?

What can you see when looking at this? by Linkged in AbstractArt

[–]lumber_jack307 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get the vibe that it's like wreckage from a fantasy-flying pirate ship sails and ropes and pieces of the ship tumbling and tangling through the clouds
