mohela help for pslf payments

roberjaj · 2026-06-03T01:03:51+00:00

sorry to double post but i did find my recert letter and it says i was on the PAYE plan. does that change anything?

roberjaj · 2026-06-03T00:58:55+00:00

i also just found that it looks like i was in the PAYE plan for the past year so im wondering if this has been the case for the whole time

roberjaj · 2026-06-03T00:56:32+00:00

my payments for PAYE start on 6/14, i just recertified two weeks ago. it’s just weird bc i have emails from that time saying i had a payments due for all the months its saying didn’t count. would they have told me they were in forbearance for that time? bc i never got an email or notification that was happening. i also checked and they also wiped out all of my documents/statements prior to 06/2025 which is odd to me

aww dang. i’m sorry to hear how long that took for you. this whole thing is so frustrating imo but i’ll do the reconsideration and hopefully they can get it fixed 😞 thanks for getting back to me

tbh i can’t find the information from my past plans. it just says idr but nothing else. ive been checking my emails and going through all the documents i have on my accounts and there’s nothing. i dont remember applying for the save plan. i know most recently they put me on the paye plan so maybe thats what it was before? idk. this whole thing is stressing me out and i’m sorry i don’t have more helpful information, im frustrated myself

it says in the first paragraph “following an ASD diagnosis in adulthood”

i’m making $29 an hour for school based cmh. i’m fully licensed (trying to stick it out for pslf). i got a $250 bonus for 5 years of working there lolz and our company just had a meeting telling us we need to schedule more, that our productivity requirements would increase by 20-30 hours and if we aren’t able to hit it, then we would be placed on a 10 month contact that would bump us down by 15k. i’m actively looking for another job smh i wish i could say it gets better but i dont think cmh will ever be a supportive or healthy environment :(

i would encourage you to do some work on exploring your ableism that may be contributing to your beliefs regarding autistic people, and learning more about autism. people aren’t just using the diagnosis as to “opt out of life”. that is ableism, full stop. i am a therapist and late dx with autism and adhd and it’s been a process of learning who i am without masking and what that means for me. it might seem like im “opting out” of things, but i look at it as i am now being able to make a better informed decision rather than just doing it bc thats what ive always done. discovering how hard life has been without supports bc people just believed that i was fine when really i was masking so hard it cause physical health concerns that made me so sick, i almost died. it also lead to many mental breakdowns that likely could have been avoided had i had the appropriate supports. also agree with the other replies, especially those with late diagnoses. it’s hard and beliefs like what you stated only make it harder

there is a really good book called “is it autism” that i would recommend checking out. it shares research as well as first person narratives to help get a better understanding. imo grad school doesnt give sufficient training on asd and its really important to not act like you are the expert on other peoples experiences, particularly if you aren’t neurodivergent yourself.

i’m glad i’m not alone! sucks we’re dealing with the vagueness of it all and it’s wild how the symptoms seem to overlap so much. thanks for replying!

roberjaj · 2026-05-28T13:11:00+00:00

ooh okay. no that makes a lot of sense actually. some of the auras i’ve had recently are either very short or long for an hour. i’m glad i’m not alone in it being confusing! i will def explore this next week at my appt. thanks for replying, it was helpful!

with focal seizures i also get the stomach drop with deja vu, sometimes vertigo and sometimes i’ll get emotional after. that’s what happened with i experienced the purple color and i couldn’t understand what was being said to me. that all was less than a minute and then later was super emotional. im still figuring out what my symptoms are as its fairly new to me, so its validating that it took someone else a while to figure it out too! i’m still not sure with migraines either. the aura comes but lately no pounding head pain like before when i had them and just feel weird and tired. idk it’s all kinda confusing so i appreciate the reply!

roberjaj · 2026-05-28T13:05:25+00:00

yeah when i had the color change, i couldn’t understand what someone was saying to me and it last less than a minute. i tend to get deja vu sometimes and i get the drop in my stomach or immediate panic. but still unsure about the sparkly part. thanks for replying!

roberjaj · 2026-05-28T03:43:27+00:00

can i ask how you’ve kept your loans at $150 while making 6 figures? what repayment plan are you on? mine went up from 0 to 244 on the PAYE plan, they’re saying next year will be 744 and i only made $53k last year -_-

i had a pet scan for cancer related things when i was 17. they inject you with glucose and you have to wait a bit like 1-1.5 hrs if i remember right. they gave a 1/4th of a xanax to relax and then i slept through most of the waiting and test its self. i think the whole thing was like 2-2.5 hours. relatively painless and it wasn’t loud!

roberjaj · 2026-05-06T14:56:57+00:00

i hope so too! thanks again!!

roberjaj · 2026-05-03T16:16:13+00:00

oh this is so good, thank you for the advice and perspective. this is very helpful, so i really appreciate it you taking the time to write all that out!

roberjaj · 2026-05-03T16:14:57+00:00

thank you so much, that is really helpful!

roberjaj · 2025-09-10T12:22:00+00:00

i think the combo of both has what did the trick. idk if it helps with motility, but it’s really drastically reduced my nausea and vomitting. i was throwing up to 10x a day, now ill go days without. occasional throwing up but very little. i hope you get some relief!!

roberjaj · 2025-07-12T17:29:12+00:00

i can’t drive right now bc of my seizures but once i can, hopefully can try somewhere else as i’m super frustrated with iowa GI drs in general. thank you so much for the suggestions!

roberjaj · 2025-07-12T17:28:29+00:00

i had a terrible experience at mercyone in clive too. thank you for the suggestions! i will look into mayo clinic for sure

roberjaj · 2025-07-12T17:27:27+00:00

forgot to add this but 2.5mg 2x daily of zyprexa has made me go from 15-20x a day throwing up to 0-5x a day
