Next steps

Something very exciting is going on in my life. After 3+ years of illness and recuperation time, I'm finally well enough to go back to studying. I'm applying to do a PhD in Counselling Psychology. To start this September! (Arrrggghhh!)
Of course I have all the predictable nerves; will I get an interview? If I get that far, will they allow me onto the course? If I make it onto the course, can I cope with the workload? And so on and so on.
It feels like the right thing to do. It's the culmination of my last 10 years in education, training and work. At the moment I'm busy putting my application together, writing my personal statement and scanning loads of documents to prove I meet the entry requirements. 
I'll keep you posted as to how I get on!
