I live with just my mum, whose interest only mortgage expires next October. She is unwell and isn't being very proactive with things, and it is likely that my dad will try to take as much money from the house as possible.
Naturally this situation is awful - being uncertain about my housing future - it is causing me so many difficulties with depression etc.
Firstly, do you think I should tell the Uni about this? I feel that this is so hard, as I am just so ashamed about it.
Is there anything they can do to help. At the very least, would them being aware make it likely for them to take into account the inevitable effects of this situation on my academic performance? I'm in second year now so things are just beginning to count.
Is there any other help I can get with this?
This situation is awful and is causing me so much worry, however, I have worked so hard to get to Uni that I am trying to minimise the effects of it on my academic work.
If I had to drop out because of this then I think doing so would break me.
