Any students here, who have found an eagerness to study after becoming sober? I am currently studying law with London Uni on their external course as a mature student. Paul

I'm enrolled full-time in college. I walked away from a college education and a scholarship at age 18 because it interfered with my drinking/lifestyle.

Well, I've never been addicted, but I am a recovering codependent...I'm also a "mature" student working toward a Ph.D. in Geology with a Masters in Oceanography. I say rock on to all of us mature students! HG |

I too am a recovering codependent, and adult child of alcoholics. I am working on a Bachelors in Nonfiction Writing. It's so much more fun and fulfilling this time around....I love being the oldest "kid" on campus

I am a recovering alcoholic, sobriety date 10/09/09...28 years old and in college, so I'm rusty cuz it's been awhile snc I've been in school and I'm having to relearn my life without alcohol. I thought I'd automatically be studying, having my head stuck in a book, once I quit drinking, but it's still hard for me to study...something to work on.... Suggestions anyone?  |

I'd like to go back. Finally got my BA last year after being in school for 6 years, failing out twice due to drinking, and not going to half my classes. I'd like to go back and actually learn something. :P
