hey im 19 years old and go to college. ever since my semester at school started ive been so busy studying and trying to do the best i can. I also work too only part time though. But I need to make money so I'm working overtime to buy a car. It seems like every day I have no time for myself and I've noticed I haven't been able to hang out with my friends because I either had too much homework or had to work. It really stresses me out. I haven't had fun in awhile. I don't even have time to write this to you but I really need some help. I never procrastinate for homework it's just when I'm done with 1 assignment I have so much other homework I have to finish in my other classes it's ridiculous. I'm starting to lack in my appearance because I have no time to get ready in the morning and I skip showers because I have to finish my homework. I also stay up really late to finish my homework and study it sucks! My boyfriend wanted to talk to me on the phone tonight but I was so focused on doing a quiz online I didn't have time for him. I also want to do good in school because college is important and I need to make money to buy a new car. It's just hard...I am really stressed and need someone to help I know there's nothing to do really. But I'm getting really tired and have no time to rest, eat, take care of myself or anything and I'm taking a full load of classes. UGH please help if you understand! I can't just take a day off from school or I'll be behind. I could take a few days off work but I need to get a car soon I'm desperate for that. HELP! (link)

Keep in mind that this is only for a short time. You will not be working this hard forever. You say you are saving for a car. How close are you to buying one? Will you be able to ease up on your work schedule once you have it? Things are stressful right now, but summer will be here soon and you'll have the money you need for your car... soon. Think about that when things get crazy. REmember, its only for a season. In due time, things will calm down and you can find some rest. In the meantime, don't be afraid to schedule some 'mini-breaks' in your day. 30min-1hr of relaxation - talking with friends, surfing the net, long baths, whatever you like. And before you say "I just can't spare the time!", think about how much time a complete mental breakdown will take. Find little ways to give your brain a break throughout the day. Your studies will be better for it.
