new to this message board. I'm feeling really bad about school. I'm in college, my fourth year. every semester I say to myself, this semester will be different, I will try harder, but it's so hard. how can I do homework while I'm crying? I can hardly bear to go to class some days... is anyone else struggling with school?
my parents have suggested taking some time off to get well before I try school again, but I've been struggling with it so long, I just want to get school over with as fast as I can. any stories to share about the decision to take a break?

Have you seen a doctor? You could go on some meds and not have to take a break. Talking to a counselor would help too. These are two important things to get you better.

I am sorry that you are having such a hard time. Do you know what is making you so sad? It could be depression rearing it's ugly head and I do advise talking to a professional to get some help. And support.

Taking a break is fine, but you still need to find out what is causing you to feel so sad. It is work, but it is worth it. I hope that you feel better soon. Keep posting and let us know how you are doing.

Hugs, Karen
