MENTAL HEALTH

Counseling

If there is anyone out there I can offer some counseling or encouragement to, I would like to do that.  My heart has always been to help people.  I have heard it said that one of the requirements of a good counselor is that they need to have gone through some very hard things in order to really understand and give empathy and advice to another person.  If this is true, then I am probably the most qualified person on Earth :-)  I have truly "been there" in more ways than I wish to remember.  If there is any way I can help someone avoid some of the mistakes I've made, or to help glue them back together after they've made them,  or to help someone who is on the receiving end of suffering in any way, I would love to do that.

College Funding for Mentallly Ill/Bipolar Individual/Woman

I am seeking information about funding the junior/senior year of online education in Healthcare Management/Administration. I have $5,500 to pay for the completion. Presently, I would also like to seek further education after completion of my BS with a Masters' in Social Work/Psychology/Health Administration.

 

Presently, I live in North Carolina and am attending Kennedy-Western University online. I need to locate assistance about how to pay for the completion of my college education.

 

I write an article on my bipolar disorder and its debilitating effects/moments of hope through AOL daily journals.

 

I am 51, single, divorced, low-income, high I.Q (110), have completed an associates degree in Microcomputer Systems systems and worked for 35 years before having to turn to SS disability to pay for my living expenses.

I have accessed the database from CFNC and learned a great deal. I intend to pursue my search further.

Any assistance on your part is greatly appreciated.

My major area of concentration is mentally ill/geriatric populations in the Healthcare professions field.

Money to complete Ph. D in Psychology

I am in need of financial aid to complete my Ph. D. in Educational Psychology.  I am in the process of obtaining my LPC in counseling (test in Oct 05), and would love to complege my Ph. D. to be able to teach courses in Psychology to help other students like myself who may have started out late to earn a degree.  After raising three children while working a full time and a part time job, I graduated in 2003 with a Master's Degree at the age of 48 with a GPA of 3.8. 

My drive and motivate comes from my father, who recently died at the age of 85.  He instilled in me that education is very important, and he expects me to go all the way to the top.  Before my father died I had plans to I had plans to get my Ph. D. after complete a second masters degree.  Now that my father has passed (Feb 05), I do not feels as if I have the time to complete the second masters, but am currently enrolled in Ph. D. program in the Harold Abel School of Psychology.  I would love to be able to complete my education with getting a second job to help pay for it, and so, I will fulfill my father's hopes and dreams for me, which would also be my hopes and dreams too.

My father had to drop out of school in the second grade to help his older brothers take care of the family farm to provide for their mother after the death of my grandfather.  I am 50 years old, and have worked two jobs most of my adult life, I am still not able to meet all of my bills in a timely manner.  I have worked for the federal government for 20 years, and have been an American Red Cross volunteer for 20 years too.  Nothing in my life has come easy, so I am praying that this would be one time that I would be able to receive help with my financial needs without losing my home.

We have been foster parents since 11/1994, and a Group Foster Home since 5/2002.  My wonderful husband and I have 2 birth children (ages 20 & 8), 6 adopted children (ages 13, 12, 11, 11, 9 & 8), and 1 current foster daughter (age 18). Over the past 12 years we've fostered 43 children, not including those who have been with us more than once, or respite placements.  Our family was named "Foster Family of the Year" in September, 2002 for our Region (19 counties in and around Dallas/Fort Worth).

I am a foster/adopt PRIDE trainer (for potential new foster & adoptive parents), I train foster & adoptive parents in topics such as Community Resources for Children, PMAB (Principles & Management of Aggressive Behavior), Free & Inexpensive Family Activities, Adoption Subsidy Negotiation, and others.  I am currently moderator of a foster/adoptive parents' email support group, and former Secretary of the Tarrant County Foster Parent Association.  I have been a Girl Scout Leader for 12 years, and a soccer coach on and off for the past 4 years.

In meeting the special needs of my former and current children (both foster & adopted), I have found that therapists who have direct experience in dealing with the needs of foster and adopted children are few and far between.  I feel with my unique experiences as a foster and adoptive parent, together with the hours and hours of training (substiantially more than the 20 hours currently required by the State of Texas), I am going back to college to continue to help foster and adoptive children and their families as a mental health professional.

I am currently enrolled at Tarrant County College in the Mental Health - Clinical and Psychological Counseling Program.  My current GPA is 3.6.  I am searching for financial assistance to help me through college, together with information and assistance in locating and transferring to a four-year college once I earn my Associate's Degree at TCC.  I have applied and will be receiving a Pell Grant.  I have also applied to several scholarship programs through the college, but competition is fierce and thus far I have received nothing.

Additionally, I am trying to raise enough funds to maintain a vehicle for my 18yr old foster daughter. She will be attending a Christian college in the fall, so all money will go toward her college expenses.  Her busy schedule prevents her from finding a job, so I put aside about $240 per month (almost 1/2 of the foster care reimbursement I receive for her).  Unfortunately, the funds she will receive to help pay for school doesn't come close to the tuition, room and board, and expenses (books, etc.) needed for this college, so it's up to us or no one.

I am also available to answer questions and provide whatever assistance I can offer in connection with fostering and adopting in Texas (I'm in the Arlington Region).

Being on a military salary makes going to school even harder, which is why I am here. I hope to obtain my BA in Psychology here in Charleston, SC and then move on to grad school later.

I found out at 27 that due to my 3 month premature birth I am in need of a lung transplant. It took me 2 yrs to want to care about myself enough to do something about it. I became inspired by someone who I met online who encouraged me not to give up. I met someone later online in Pittsburgh who I saw myself in when I had no hope; I tried to encourage this person but to not avail- however this inspired myself to go even farther.

I am currently being watched by the UPMC transplant team, but not on the list. This has made my bi polar diagnosis worse, however.

To keep myself busy and because I love law, I am in college for a 2 yr associates degree in paralegal studies of which I am in my 2 of 4 semesters. An atty friend lets me come into his office for something to do, but cannot afford to pay me but peanuts.

I am desperately trying to find money to pay for college and to pay for my ongoing yearly evaluations which come out of my pocket.

To anyone wanting to know more about me, to anyone wanting to make a substantial donation- please email me directly at hoover.paralegal @ yahoo.com. If anyone is a God send to make a substantial donation to either I will provide you with bonafide documentation of my condition/s.

Feel free to email me with any advice, help or donations- thank you kindly! Becca

HI, I'M ANGEL, I'VE BEENNBLESSED BY GOD, BECAUSE I HAD SEVERAL "NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCES". ONE OF MANY GIFTS, I'VE RECIEVED SINCE 1989, IS THAT I CAN EVEN HEAL PEOPLE WITH "MENTAL ILLNESS", INSTANTLY! IT'S SIMPLE. FIRST OF ALL, IF YOU CHECK OUT THE NEW TESTIMENT (I PERFER THE KING JAMES VERSION), YOU'LL NOTICE THAT "THERE IS NO ONE AFFLICTED WITH MENTAL ILLNESS", IT'S "DEMOND POSSESION"! TEACH PEOPLE TO "LET GO" OF THEIR NEED FOR "POSSESSION", THEN HELP THEM TO "LET GO", NOW! IT'S AWSOME! DIPRESSION IS AN EASY ONE. FIRST OF ALL, A PERSON'S IMMUINE SYSTEM HAS WORN OUT A PERSON, IN ATTEMPTING TO "RIDE" THE BODY, MIND, AND SOUL OF SOME "FOREIGN ENITY". FIND, LOCATE, AND NAME THE ENITY, THEN CAST IT OUT BY THE GIFTS, POWERS AND BLESSINGS OF JESUS CHRIST...ZIP! GONE! NOW, NO NEED TO TAKE DRUGS, THERAPHY, ETC. EVER. BUT BECAUSE OF THE "FDA" THING, I CAN'T RECOMMEND IT. IT HAS TO BE YOUR CHOICE. EMAIL ME, WE'LL EXCHANGE PHONE NUMBERS, AND WE'LL GO FROM THERE.

Im not even sure what this site is for other than just having people out there who know what im going through. I have spent the last few years wondering if im going to be able to hang on. Im an adult survivor of child abuse and sexual abuse. For most of my life I have been able to maintain, but recently I feel like im comming apart. Im sure most of it is related to the fact that my life latley is so out of control. The economy is so bad right now that the stress level's have reached an all time high. I know im not the only one out here suffering, I just feel like I am.  I was diagnosed with Post Tramatic Stress Syndrome, re-occuring depression, Severe Panic and Anxiety. So with all this going on the lack of money isn't helping. I know what I need to do, and I want to be able to do it, I just cant. And I know what your thinking not with that attitude, but I used to have a great attitude, I just lost it somewhere down the road. My husband is Disabled with a bad Back and Knee, It makes it hard because we are trying to maintain a house and raise 3 kids on his disability pay and it just doesnt work.. I've tried everything. I have tried to work and tried to go to school but I just cant finish anything. I start out great and then fizzle. It gets so bad I get so over whelmed I cant continue I start getting panic attacks and then im done. If anyone can offer suggestions Im open. Anything.

until then Im still hanging in there.
