First year diploma results.

Innerspace · #1 19th July 2005, 17:23

Not often i post on this part of the forum but following on from the impressive results attained by Nemesis, Kev, SM and others, i got my results for the 3 written modules of my counselling diploma year 1.

I got one merit and 2 distinctions :D

so i'm chuffed with that.
That gets me an advanced certificate in counselling skills, which will become a full advanced diploma if/when i get through year 2 successfully.

Well done to everyone else who got good results, and well done for giving it a go to anyone who didn't quite get there this time.

cavycrazy · #3 19th July 2005, 17:38

Well done Dave!!!

I'm so happy for you!!!

Innerspace · #4 19th July 2005, 17:39

Thanks Custard.

I'm now qualified to counsel myself for being depressed at coming back from my holidays.

And a big thank you to you too Amy.

Wow, well done you!

Thanks Julie.

I hope you're doing well at the moment.

pboy · #7 19th July 2005, 22:41

WELL DONE!

That's sooo inspiring to me especialy as I'm gonna do similar courses eventually. It can be done, despite SA eh! Take that SA.

Congrats - it's well deserved, from what you have said it's a hell of a hard slog.

MidWalian · #8 19th July 2005, 23:42

Well done.

And all the best for the second year.

givusabud · #9 20th July 2005, 17:17

Ive never forgotten the helpful pm's you sent me and i have nothing but respect for you for the way you have challenged your anxieties and given me the inspiration to try and do the same
Ive failed miserably so far but you helped me believe one day i will and that meant a hell of a lot to me
Respect mate

RayOfLight · #10 20th July 2005, 17:19

well done inner!!

Innerspace · #11 20th July 2005, 22:32

oops! I forgot i'd posted this thread. :embarass:

Thanks pboy, MidWalian, 'bud and RayOfLight.

pboy, I know you have a strong desire to do these courses too. I really hope you go for it. I'm a fair bit older than you so i can understand how you may wonder if you're ready to do it just yet.
It took me a decade to enrol once i'd decided this career was for me.
Don't give up on your dreams and you'll get there when you are ready. Yes, it can be a slog, and it's not easy for anyone, nevermind the SA, but if i can do it then i'm 100% sure you can too. You know i will always offer any help and support that i can if/when you enrol. Good luck mate.

Bud, Very kind words indeed from you there. Thank you.
If i've helped in any way then the pleasure was all mine.
I think that the hardest person to please is ourselves most of the time. I know that you can crack your problems, and one day it will start fitting into place for you. The only time we stop failing in life is when we give up trying. I fail at loads of things all the time. You keep trying, and that's why one day you will beat this thing. Never stop trying mate. Takecare.

Thanks to everyone that replied to my thread.

Cheers Ray.

ßazzaOld · #13 30th July 2005, 19:08

Bit late as only just read this but WD!

Hope you have continued success as I think your a great listener and writer on these forums and would be great as a counseller.

Once you done it maybe you can help me so I can do something.

Innerspace · #14 1st August 2005, 22:12

I forgot i'd posted this so i've only just spotted your post Bazza.

Thanks for your comments.

Anything i can help you with, feel free to ask.

Cheers.

Scottidog · #15 2nd August 2005, 00:16

Yay...Well done, Innerspace!!!

I've always found your posts tremendously helpful and inspiring, and although I've not managed it myself (so far!), you've shown that with A LOT of hard work and a little self-belief the battle with SA can be won. I think you'll make a superb counsellor, and I wish you many congratulations on your well deserved success.

Innerspace · #16 2nd August 2005, 19:07

Aww, thanks Scottidog.

I appreciate your comments.
To be honest, i lose my self-belief at times even now, but the comments on this thread have boosted me a lot and this is spurring me on to push myself in my final year which starts in 6 weeks or so.

Thanks again for your comments, they mean a lot to me.

Dave.

Thanks to everyone that replied to my thread.

I like your outlook too. And it couldn't be closer to the truth.

Innerspace · #20 2nd August 2005, 23:28

Thanks Dan.
I didn't always have that attitude though, and i used to quit at the first hint of failure but i suppose i realised that this would get me nowhere.

The newer attitude has served me extremely well though, so i'll stick with it. If only i knew in my 20's and 30's what i know now.

Oh well, we live and learn eh?

Even though I'm only 22, I look back at situations, particularly in my teens, and realise if I showed half the attitude and mental toughness, things may have worked out a lot differently.

I guess I have a couple of regrets, but don't we all? Still, I can take a positive out of most things, even a minor one, so I'm learning something!

Live and Learn!

Whoa! Just saw this thread for the first time.

If there's anybody in this world who will be able to help people with life's problems ...

it's ((Inner*Dave))

Of course, his alter ego, Inner the Kinky Klown helps party goers, too.

Good Job Dave!!

We supposed to enrol for year 2 next week. I'm having a low time and a crisis of confidence at the moment too, but these replies help a lot.

Thanks all.
