I just found out that I have to cover up my numerous self-mutilation scars to avoid discrimination in nursing school.
I don't even know what to do about that.
Do I get mad at the fact that I barely survived my own sanity, only to be punished even further? Do I intentionally keep them uncovered and risk a career, or even being kicked out for being unsound? Is that even legal?
Do I get upset and pick a fight in the name of every other person who's had to wear long sleeves? Do I risk never getting a job by picking a fight no one else is willing to?
Do I sit down and take this in stride? Keep my mouth shut and just keep in mind that I can't piss where I eat, and feel smothered and cowardly?
Well, I know what I want to do.
...But I don't think I can fight it, knowing that I risk the comfort of my family, id est, our future financial security.
