Going to college can be stressful. Then throw in life. Maybe you're working several jobs to make ends meet.
Maybe your home life is way less than perfect. May be you're struggling with a chronic illness. Maybe you just feel out of place with everyone and everything around you. Then throw in assignments that you feel you don't understand with deadlines that are way too close. Stress, Stress Stress!!!!!!
You are not alone. Right now I have a paper due next week and I have cried over it. I have screamed I can't do it but in the end I am working on it.
