So Ive settled on a few things. Ive decided once I have recovered and I can go back to work or some kinda normality I am going to go and study to become a cosmetic chemist, thats pretty much a definate. After that, Im going to do a Master Aromatherapist & Natural Therapist qualification, with electives in Sleep Health and Dreams and the other Rejucenating Skin Care. After that, I want to do a Bachelor of Health Science (Western Herbal Medicine). The aim is to have a Natural Health Practice via which I will also sell my Body, Hair & Home care products. My products will be primarily natural but Im not limiting myself to natural or organic, if I think a synthetic or man made ingredient is worth including then I will but they will be limited, mainly preservatives and actives (things like Salicylic Acid and Retinol) but there are natural alternatives to many of these and I will use those alternatives if it makes a better formula, or Ill do a product with the alternative and one with the synthetic stuff. 

At the moment Im stuck waiting while I get better, but Im studying formulation. Im starting a blog about going from knowing nothing about products and their uses to making my own. I did a soft launch today. Soft launch of a facebook page and I launched a new facebook page under my real name. When I start actually doing the practical side of things Ill make an insta profile too.

Hey, @ClockFace these are amazing goals for your future career and study. I encourage you to continue and dedicate yourself to what you want in life. I get so much out of study personally and it has changed my life.

I am still in recovery so I believe you will be able to work towards your goals with or without MH symptoms. 

Thanks for sharing your story!

Take care
