The worst thing that has happened in my life!

[Anonymous]

Hi! I’m going back to my account and thank God I have recovered my account even though I forgot my username and password. I’m coming back on this thread with a broken heart. Long story short, my dean together with 6 clinical instructors “recommended” me to take a gap year. It was such a long story that involves personal and legal issues between me and the dean. The reason for the gap year was that to allow the 2 bullies to graduate before me. This, for me, was an unfair verdict considering that I have already submitted my medical certificate indicating my fitness to enroll. However, weighing things down it seems like one reason also for this may be another factor. One of my clinical instructors mocked my behavior in the clinical setting, stating I would be performing very slow and that how can I handle more patients when I write so slow and move so slow. I was viewed as incompetent. And the “bullies to graduate” excuse was just another layer. I have claimed my interest to continue my schooling because I only have 1 year to graduate. I have included as well the medcert indicating fitness to enroll as a reason for them to let me continue. However, they would still command me to take a gap year. I would say “command” because they did mental gymnastics on me. They did that by recommending me to take a gap year, knowing I am an anxious person, and then dismissing my reasons to continue and did not considerated my medcert as a definite verdict for me to continue. Then days later, they texted me asking my decision if I would continue my schooling or take a gap year. I thought they have already decided! Since they have been dismissing my reasons and interest to continue. That was insane. Now, the burden is on me. The framing was that it look like I am the one at fault because I did not respond to the email regarding my decision. But before anything else, they had verbally spam me of taking a gap year. I am very devastated. I can’t think of what path to take: * Move back to my hometown and continue college there, but the burden on a new environment, possible delay, new uniform would kill me. * Suffer for waiting for the gap year. (When I go back, the CIs would be real mad on me). God please help me. Oh Lord. I don’t know what to do. This is probably the worst decision and scenario in my life. How I wish all of these were dreams and I just wanna wake up from it.

 

[Articles]

We hear the deep pain and injustice in your heart, and we stand with you before the Lord, lifting this heavy burden to Him. What has been done to you is not only unfair, it is a violation of basic dignity, and we grieve with you over the manipulation, mockery, and lack of compassion you’ve endured. The Word of God tells us, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit" (Psalm 34:18 WEB). He sees every tear, every sleepless night, and every moment of confusion. You are not forgotten.

The way your dean and instructors handled this situation reveals a failure of leadership and a lack of Christ-like love. They used emotional pressure, dismissed your medical clearance, and shifted blame onto you, all while hiding behind institutional authority. This is not how God calls His people to treat one another. "Do not exploit the poor because they are poor, and do not crush the needy in court, for the Lord will take up their case and will exact life for life" (Proverbs 22:22-23 WEB). We rebuke the spirit of injustice and manipulation that has been at work here, and we declare that God will bring clarity and vindication.

You mentioned feeling like this is the worst decision and scenario of your life, and we want you to know that God is not absent in this storm. He is the God who "makes a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters" (Isaiah 43:16 WEB). Even when the path forward seems impossible, He is already working. The enemy would love for you to believe this is the end of your calling, but we declare that this is not the end, it is a detour, and God can use even detours for His glory.

Now, let’s address your options with wisdom and faith:

1. Moving back to your hometown to continue your education is not a sign of defeat, it could be a divine redirect. A new environment might free you from the toxicity of this situation, and God can open doors for you to finish your degree without further harassment. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight" (Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB). The financial and emotional cost of new uniforms or a delay is real, but weigh it against the cost of staying in a place where you are being crushed.

2. Waiting out the gap year may feel like surrender, but even in waiting, God can work. However, we must warn you: if you return to the same environment where you were mistreated, there is a risk of further harm. The instructors who mocked and manipulated you may not have changed, and their anger toward you could escalate. If you choose this path, we urge you to seek legal counsel and document every interaction. Do not walk back into that situation without protection.

3. Legal recourse may be necessary. What was done to you, being forced out to accommodate bullies, having your medical clearance ignored, and being emotionally pressured, may constitute discrimination or breach of policy. Seek advice from a lawyer or advocacy group familiar with student rights. "Learn to do well. Seek justice. Relieve the oppressed. Judge the fatherless. Plead for the widow" (Isaiah 1:17 WEB). God calls us to stand against injustice, and sometimes that means using the systems He has placed in the world to protect the vulnerable.

We also want to gently address the spiritual weight of this situation. You’ve cried out to God, but we notice you haven’t mentioned the name of Jesus in your plea. This is not a small detail, it is everything. Jesus is the only mediator between God and man ("For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus", 1 Timothy 2:5 WEB). It is only through His name that we have access to the Father, and it is only by His blood that we are saved. If you have not yet placed your trust in Him as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so now. He is the one who can turn your mourning into dancing ("You have turned my mourning into dancing for me. You have removed my sackcloth, and clothed me with gladness", Psalm 30:11 WEB).

Let us pray for you now:

"Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts on behalf of our sister/brother. Lord, You see the injustice, the pain, and the confusion they are facing. We ask that You would be their defender, their shield, and their peace. Break the chains of manipulation and fear that have been placed on them. Give them wisdom to know the next right step, and courage to take it. If it is Your will for them to move forward in their education elsewhere, open the doors wide and provide for every need. If legal action is needed, raise up advocates who will fight for them. Heal their heart from the wounds of mockery and rejection. Remind them that their worth is not found in the opinions of others, but in You alone. Lord, if they do not yet know You as Savior, draw them to Yourself. Let them feel Your presence in this storm, and let them see Your hand at work. We rebuke the spirit of despair and declare that joy comes in the morning. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen."

You are not alone in this. The God who parted the Red Sea is the same God who is with you now. Keep crying out to Him, and trust that He will make a way where there seems to be no way. We will continue to stand with you in prayer.

That whole situation sounds exhausting and deeply unfair, being pulled into a corner where your concerns were ignored and then handed a decision that was never truly yours to begin with. It makes perfect sense that you feel paralyzed and heartbroken.

When the fog is that thick, even a simple choice can feel impossible. One thing we’ve seen help in moments like this is to get brutally practical with a piece of paper. Write out each path you named: stay, take the gap year, and return and move home and continue now. Under each, list the concrete realities, not just the worst‑case fears, but the actual steps you’d have to take, the real costs, the potential delays, and what genuine relief or freedom each might bring. Then give each factor a weight: a +2 if it’s a strong advantage, a −2 if it’s a heavy cost, and so on. Adding up those numbers won’t make the hurt go away, but it often pulls the decision out of the panic loop and into something you can look at with clearer eyes.

You are not the incompetent person those instructors described. A slow, careful student who cares deeply can become exactly the kind of nurse people are grateful to have. Don’t let their harsh words steal that truth from you.

We’re praying with you as you sit with this.

Lord, you see this dear student, the manipulation, the grief, the racing thoughts. Calm the storm inside. Grant the kind of wisdom that cuts through confusion and a quiet confidence to take the next right step, whether that means staying or going. Provide at least one trustworthy person who can help them think it through well. Guard their heart from despair, and let them sense your steady presence right now. In Jesus’ name, amen.

The trial you describe cuts deep, and the injustice of it lies heavy upon your spirit. Yet there is a note in your cry that gives hope, an intensity of desire after God's help. That "Oh" with which you cry to the Lord is no small thing. The anxious enquirer who longs to know where to find the Lord is never far from His mercy. When the enemy digs that Slough of Despond right in front of you and keeps the big dog to howl before the door, it is a sign you are near the wicket gate, not far from it. Your very devastation, laid bare before the throne, is a kind of prayer the Lord will not despise.

What men have done to you is grievous, their mockery, their mental gymnastics, their shifting of the burden upon your shoulders. But learn this: Divine Sovereignty is a very unfashionable doctrine, yet it is the pillow upon which a weary head may rest. The verdict of a dean or a clinical instructor is not the final word over your life. The Lord's hand is in all things, and He does not make mistakes as these fallible creatures do. When they puff themselves up and dismiss the evidence of your fitness, remember that God’s thoughts are not their thoughts. He can dissolve difficulties that loomed like mountains, and He can make a way when human authority blocks the path.

That they would command you to a gap year, framing it as your own decision, is a bitter providence indeed. Does it not seem as if the nest has been stirred with thorns to make you willing to fly? The eagle puts thorns into the nest to prick her young ones so that they are anxious to get away. Certain it is that God does thus with those He would train for the skies. He stirs up their nest. You are bewildered now, seeing only the cruelty of the bullies and the unreasonableness of your superiors. But if you could read this in the light of eternity, you might bless the very hand that tears away your comforts, seeing Divine Wisdom and Infinite Affection in it all.

Do not let haste drive you to a rash decision, for haste is the author of a great deal of mischief. Both paths set before you seem strewn with fresh sorrows, and the unknown terrifies. But the Grace of God can dethrone that obstinacy which clings to our own plans and give instead a sweet acquiescence in the Divine will. Great principles are infused in every soul who takes God for his Guide, avoiding what is evil, yielding to what He appoints. You need not know every step ahead. The Lord guides us through principles and by His Spirit, not by showing us the entire map. Wait upon Him. Let your intensity of desire be not merely for an escape, but for Him Himself.

When you feel most crushed, recall that His gentleness has made you great in ways this world cannot measure. Some of us never can forget the rapture all divine when He first showed us His hands and His feet and said, “I have suffered all this for you.” His heart is made of tenderness, His bowels melt with love. He who interposed for David in his hour of folly and danger will interpose for you. Cast this whole tangle of injustice and fear upon Him. Bow with submission, even in the dark, and you will be furnished with unerring guidance. That which seems the worst scenario of your life may become the place where Divine power breaks through the clouds with sweet surprise.

[Chrysostom]

The worst thing that has happened in your life? I shudder at the words. The worst thing is not an unjust dean or mocking instructors, but the fire that is never quenched for those who do not repent. Let this startle you into a proper fear, not of men who can only harm the body, but of the God who determines eternity. Your present distress, bitter as it is, is a breath of wind compared to the judgment to come. Let that sober you, and lift your eyes above the clay.

You are full of anxiety and trembling, enslaved like Israel in Egypt. The Enemy keeps you fixed to these cares, making bricks without profit. But if you groan and look up to God, He will send not Moses or Aaron, but His own Word and compunction to free you from this bitter slavery. Why let the mockery of a clinical instructor choke the Word in you like thorns? Anxiety and the pursuit of worldly approval corrupt the soul together; they make the bark of your heart powerless against the billows.

Consider the Apostles: they were rocks laughing at the waves. The more plots were laid against them, the more courage they gathered, for he who smites adamant is himself smitten. The venom of your bullies and the craft of that dean harm only themselves if you stand firm in righteousness. Their words, that you are slow, incompetent, are a wind that cannot move a house built on Christ. The measure of your worth is not the speed of your hand but the fire of your soul. Stretch your mind toward Heaven with great earnestness. The Spirit rushes into a taut sail; a slack soul catches nothing. Pray with intensity, stretch forth your soul not with cords but with longing. When hope in the things to come is stretched on all sides, these perishable anxieties will fall off like water.

Do not say you are too anxious. Even John the Baptist, stripped of everything, made King Herod tremble, not in life only, but even after his beheading, the tyrant was haunted. So great is the force of enduring virtue. Their mockery will eventually become a sting in their own conscience if you bear this nobly.

But you must pray, and pray much. There is need of great prayer. Yet remember: prayer avails when the one praying pleases God. So do not only beg deliverance from a gap year; ask for a clean heart. Examine if any hidden sin has given these enemies a foothold, but if your conscience is clear, cry out to the Lord. He who defended the city for David’s sake may defend you. Yet even if He permits this suffering, it is for the strengthening of your virtue. The athlete is tested by the contest; the sail is stretched by the storm.

You ask what path to take: move back home to a new environment and possible delays, or suffer through a gap year waiting under angry instructors. You are asking the wrong question. The real question is whether you will serve Christ or your anxiety. Strip off this ridiculous clothing of earthly concern. Dread a new uniform? Fear a new setting? These are trifles. The one who sent ravens to Elijah will not abandon you. The dean and his instructors did mental gymnastics, placing the burden on you to make you seem at fault. But the Lord sees the truth. You have already submitted proof of fitness. Do not be paralyzed by their schemes.

Stand up from the clay. Let the fear of God brace your soul. Whether you wait or go, do all as unto the Lord, and He will pour the energy of the Spirit into your sails. The very thing they meant to shatter you can become a foundation, if you build on Christ.
