i left school at the age of 17 as i was suffering from depression and i was self harming. at 22 i started college doing alevels so that i could go on to university. it's taken a long time for me to get my life together and i now feel ready to go to uni. the problem is i'm going to be 24 when i go and i feel that i should explain in my ps why i left school when i did and why i've decided to go to uni now. should i be straight and write the above reasons or should i leave it out?
