Doug:
Again, my heart goes out to you. I am sorry you were and are in so much pain. This message board is stacked full of people in the same situation, maybe even worse.
You should be proud of yourself from graduating from college despite all of your adversity. It proved what tremendous character and inner strength you possess.
Again, my friend, you must realize there are plenty of people in Fortune 500 companies that have emotional issues. Ted Turner, founder of CNN, is bipolar, as is former CNN president Tom Johnson. Jane Pauley is bipolar. Bill Gates didn't graduate from college. I could go on and on and on.
Everyone knows life is what you make of it. Yes, maybe it will be tougher to get a job out of the starting gate. Then again, because your grades aren't as good as you like, it may make you more aggressive in pursuing a job, therefore open different doors, bigger doors.
I've never even known grades to matter in a job interview except for maybe your first job. Most of the time, it all seems about what you can do. I pray that this obstacle you see even makes you more determined. Michael
