Getting in too deep...
I'm 19/F, in my third year of university.
I'm starting to really worry. It's about the third week of classes, and I haven't attended nearly enough of them, due to my financial situation (I can't afford to take the bus every day, and the free bus pass I'm supposed to get from the school hasn't arrived yet).
I'm way behind in my studies. I actually ended up skipping class yesterday and missing two labs (both mandatory) due to stress-caused illness. I don't know if I'll be able to get a doctor's note for it.
I've got a bunch of late assignments that I have to do, but it's nearly impossible to do them, because I don't understand any of the course material.
I'm starting to get really worried about all of this. I'm not in a financial position to be in school right now, but I don't have much of an option because my program might be cancelled after this run of it. I have 30 hours of class a week, and a 45 minute long commute to and from school, so I can't get a part-time job.
Any tips on how to deal with being absolutely overwhelmed by everything?

There are counsellors at University who deal with these problems all the time. Go and have a chat with one of them, take a list of your problems and work through them together. That is what they are there for. Good luck.

You need a therapist. Your academic life is falling to pieces, and you are not taking any responsibility for it. Stop making excuses, and face reality; there is something bothering you. You should seek professional help so you can learn to deal with whatever it is.
