Hi @adzdiaries welcome to Hive. I'm @palomap3 from Lovesniper OCD team.

I admire the self-confidence you convey. I wish I had been like you at your age! Yes, it's hard to work and study at the same time. I did it too, but as you say, every experience teaches us something and creates a better future for us if we learn from them. You have some good mentors, follow their advice and you'll do well. I recommend that you explore the communities I link to below.

Tips and information as a Hive newbie here: newbie guide.

Communities you might like that are part of the OCD Communities Incubation Program. Important: read their rules and post in the one that fits your content.

Have a good day!
