Pulmonary Embolism Support Group
By far the most common form of pulmonary embolism is a thromboembolism, which occurs when a blood clot, generally a venous thrombus, becomes dislodged from its site of formation and embolizes to the arterial blood supply of one of the lungs. Symptoms may include difficulty breathing, pain during breathing, and more rarely circulatory instability and death.
I'll be graduating college in December with a Bachelor's Degree in criminal justice. My goal was to become a police officer, and later, a federal agent. Obviously, because of my situation, neither of those jobs will happen. I truly don't have any other jobs in mind and the ones I do come up with, I am in the wrong major. It's not really helping with the anxiety I have with all the college loans that will have to be paid back, my wedding that needs paid for, and other expenses. I've been denied two jobs already, one for high blood pressure (failing the physical) and another for having anxiety. Being denied for those things really irritated me. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? I feel like my time in school is now absolutely worthless and I have absolutely no motivation to finish even though I only have one semester left.

Nationalday.com proclaims September 28th as Self Aware Day. I took a few snaps of various core values lists and tried to pick my top five core values (kinda hard to only pick 5). But here are my top picks. Feel free to list a few of yours too:GodLovePeaceStability Compassion

Now that I am not talking to my whatever best friend, I realized that her life is full of drama. I had grown tired of hearing her stories about her boyfriend many months ago. She basically had been monopolizing conversations for that long too. She pretty much stopped asking me questions about me. I passed her in front of her classroom the other day and didn't even look at her. I am...
Is your high blood pressure related to your clots? if so, that hopefully resolve with time.
I know it's stressful, but you have to keep that in check so it doesn't amp up the anxiety.
take care
As for the degree, its important to remember that ANY degree is better than none. The ability to prove to future employers that you have the drive to finish a long-term projects (like a degree) is important and shows a lot about you. And, if at some point, you're in the physical shape to get those jobs you want, you'll be glad then to have the degree. Also, if you wind up in a field that is peripheral to your degree (like the crime scene tech or dispatcher), it'll still be helpful to be able to put that on your resume.
Also, and I know this sounds counter-intuitive, there are tons of folks out there who have degrees that aren't necessarily working in the same field as their degree. Having the degree gets your foots into better doors than not having it, which leads to a lifetime of better pay and better opportunities.
I know you're feeling like doors are slamming in your face right now, but that doesn't mean that they always will. Definitely get in to talk with a college advisor and see what some other options are. Besides, you got something better to do in the next eight months than get a degree?
I went to a liberal arts university where a lot of people majored in art, english and communications who we're going to be artists, writers and teachers. Most of my friends actually now are in management at various companies, some sort of in arts field but most not, such as myself.
I learned a lot in college, a lot of it irrelevant in the real world, but the most important thing I learned was how to think critically. That carries you everywhere you go in any situation you're in. So tap into that. It's not necessarily what you know but how you think.
