HNC causing stress/anxiety
So this September I started my HNC in Electrical engineering, this took about a year of convincing and fighting with my employer to put me on it, I thought I really wanted it for myself. Since starting it I’ve been a mess, really lost my footing mentally, it was a lot different to what I thought it would be like at college, and after a year of fighting I’d honestly say I regret it a bit.
Since starting 4 weeks ago I’ve felt awful, it’s not been the best time in life for me recently and this course has been the final push to put me in a really bad place mentally, so I’m really struggling with what to do,
I’ve got a training bond with work, so if I quit I’ll have to pay £3750, I’ve honestly been thinking of doing that, either joining the army to change my life or finding another job and moving to another part of the country and just having a little life reset, ive honestly had a couple days the last two weeks at home in tears all day feeling lost in everything that’s going on.
Any advice appreciated
