I'm 21, but I graduated high school today! It's been a long journey, I battled depression and hospitalizations, and navigating living with depression and PTSD. But I stuck it out, found a program that worked for me and I did it! I got my diploma!

I'm still in shock lol

Congrats!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Genuinely happy and excited for you! I'm 44 and still haven't, and I believe my mother was in her late 30s when she did via equivalency stuff so 21 ain't bad at all (especially with completely understandable and valid hurdles en route)!! 😊
