I'm wondering if it's a good idea to enroll in some useful course, night/online, earn a degree in 2 years so I'll be able to say I graduated in 2022 instead of 1997?

I also shaved the first few jobs off my resume and linked in. From what I have seen, not listing your graduation date is pretty standard. Snoop around Linkedin and look at profiles of creatives you respect and admire, especially if they’re not spring chickens.

We used to live in the suburbs so much more quiet and low key. The cars going by, sudden sounds, bikes/scooters are a huge stressor, but more than anything it’s people - if he sees anyone walking or around him he panics and tries to flee. I can’t afford to send him to an expensive dog trainer and don’t know what to do :/
