After debating with myself I've decided to accept my Liverpool DClin offer and withdraw from Leeds - while I would have liked to have done it my body and brain are just not working today and I'd rather my spot goes to someone on the reserve who would want to give it their all♥️

I think a frustrating part of working in MH while also having MH difficulties yourself is feeling like you're part of the problem when people feel they've been let down by services, I promise you most of us are trying our best. We're just humans trying to help other humans ♥️

8 years since I graduated from undergrad, my first DClin application I got 4 straight no's. Reflected and reframed how I wrote my application, I took risks and let myself be vulnerable. It's paid off. If you've received rejections this year I feel you, please keep going.
