I am graduating high school next month, and I have been devastated for about 1.5 years now because I can’t walk the stage at my own graduation.

For context, I have been hospitalized on and off throughout high school for my struggles with PTSD, anxiety, and depression, and found out last year, after finally becoming somewhat stable, that I couldn’t graduate on time with my friends.

Then, I find out that my father will be at this year’s ceremony because his stepson is graduating as well.

I can’t even risk going because I know that he will completely ruin it and terrorize my family, but I am so incredibly disappointed.

I just wanted to see if anyone else is going/has gone through this type of situation because I feel very alone right now.

Recently I had to cancel my OSAP application for one school because there were several mistakes on it, one of which was child support.

It says “All foreign income and Canadian non-taxable income your parent received in 2025:”

The issue with this is in 2025 my mother had 3 dependent children to take care of so she was being provided with more money, now she technically only has 1 dependent child (me) so she will be receiving less money even though she is still helping out one of my siblings.

I believe that (and correct me if I’m wrong) because I put in a high amount of child support for only one child I am receiving such a low amount of OSAP.

I guess my question is, is there a way to do something about this because I am now worried I will not receive enough funding to attend my university?

Also, how do I restart an application because I still at least need some funding and I don’t want to receive none at all?
