Worn Out

I don't know if this is the right choice but I m really considering taking a break from school right now.

Everything that has happened (and continues to happen) has just been so overwhelming. I know that without the support I have had since my SA happened, I wouldn't have been able to even come this far. Its all really taking a toll on me though.

I want to take one semester off to focus on myself and heal and try and find a job again but I fear that I wont go back to school if I do that. Its so frustrating because I'm almost done, I almost have my BA. There's so many things stopping me and throwing me off though, I'm already at risk of getting kicked out my major (I have till the end of this semester to get my grades up) and if I do succeed this semester, I don't want everything I'm dealing with to affect my academic performance next semester as well.

I just feel that even if taking a semester off of school may be good for me to get myself together, I may end up disappointing my family and ultimately myself if I don't finish in a timely manner. I feel as though I've wasted their time (and my own) and money. Ugh, Idk what to do _-_
