I'm not going to sugarcoat anything for you. I'm going to give you advice that lets you know the reality of the situation. I'll make sure you know everything, the good and the bad. I'm here to target the reality, not the moral. I don't care about the "right" thing to do. I care about the "best" thing to do. Send me a question, and face the reality.

i got accepted into one of the best schools, probably in the state, or even in the country, with many awards and the students and enviornment is really welcoming and friendly, and most of the students get accdepted into really good colleges like Stanford. but the problem is is that i'm taking too many classes, but i don't want to fall behind in my units(college) and in my credits(high school). what can i do if i stress myself out but i don't want to drop any classes?

Personally I think you should go for it.
In 8th grade, I got accepted into Phillips Andover. I rejected them for family issues. I thought that I would EASILY be able to get straight A's for a Public High School.
But It still seems hard.
Why? because I'm not being pressured to do really REALLY well. Just well enough to get straight A's in a public school.
If you can, I think you should take that chance. Even if it's stressful, you'll know that you're really being challenged and that way you'll be able to reach your best. It's like in a race. if you race against someone who's slower than you, you might win, but your time would be worse than if you raced against someone really fast and lost. Because you'd still be faster.
I'm not sure if this answers your question. But if you want ways to relax you can always listen to calming music. Also I find time to just sit and breathe. If you think about it, you always can waste time somehow. Think about how much time you spend commuting to places or just getting settled in. I'm not sure what's best for you, but I'm pretty sure getting really organized would help anyone.
Hope that helped!
