I went to college, did a Advanced NVQ in IT, passed that, worked for a year from work experience, got sacked because the boss was a bellend, started uni, failed uni for 5 years or so, worked in a pub, now a postman. Life well lived
If I had the chance again, I'd try and work for a year and save a load of cash while living at home to travel the world, a mate of mine did it and i'm a touch jealous of him. The bastard.

School -> College -> Uni -> Placement Year - > Uni -> Travelling -> Job.
The job thing is a bit dull, so looking to bootstrap a few companies while working and then following any of them that pick up.

You on Citalipram for that?
Out of general curiousity, seeing as you are trained and I am still a lowly student nurse Would they solely use an ssri for bi-polar? As far as i was aware, they can bring about further manic episodes in bi-polar, so would be used alongside something like risperidone? Or is citalopram different? As i said, still learning!

I went into the Army at 16. Joined The Black Watch, a Scottish Infantry regiment. Trained as a machine gunner for my "trade", specialising as a GPMG Gunner, but was trained in .50cal as well. Got pretty badly hurt at 18 and was medically discharged.
Started car valeting when i could work again, was about 19. Hated it and spent the next couple years wondering what to do with my life. Landed on my feet, with a job as a trainee service engineer, earning good money with very good prospects considering my lack of education.
