<p>Anyone here just super stressed out over college? I just transferred and I'm having such a difficult time trying to balance work-study with an internship: biggest mistake ever. Not to mention a lot of family problems (which I wont bother going into detail) and living on my own, paying for everything. I've had a couple of meltdowns. I just got an email from my professor saying he was concerned about my work lately. In the email, he said I had the best work in class at the beginning and my work has become more "erratic." At the end, he asks me if I'm going through hard times and he would like to see me. I got a C+ on my midterm. Definitely not my best effort, that's for sure. </p>
<p>In truth, I don't know why I didn't do so well. It's a lot of things accumulating and this message just made me realize that I need to take it easy. I want to just scream into a pillow and cry because I'm trying so hard to adjust but it's been so hard. I can't let my grades drop anymore. This can't happen again. I made an appointment to see him soon to talk about getting back on track. I just feel like an utter mess right now. Worthless and stupid. I apologize this became more of a vent than a question, but how many students out there have reached the peak of their stress level?</p>
