"2. I have changed my course twice and I’m about to change it the third time, because I can’t seem to understand what studying plus I’m not helping myself and neither is the school helping me (open university and working as waitress did this), I really wanted to be a medical practitioner (a physiotherapist) but I would have been happy with nursing.

"3. I can’t swim, I can’t ride a bicycle, I can’t drive a car. 4. I succk at making and keeping friends, if you don’t constantly impose yourself on me, I will not reach out because I worry I will be a burden.

"5. I genuinely wish I have older sibling/siblings OR at least a stable family like the type that connects with cousins, uncles and aunties, but no every one is a wolf so my mom made us a lone wolf too.

"6. I get inconvenient easily, so I don’t like people in my space, I’m not a clean freak but no one does things the way I will do it myself and that annoys me, what annoys me more is been unable to tell you that I don’t like how you move, touch or use my thing."

Sharing details of her course, she added in the comments:
