Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
So i have crammed 4 years of school into three and i am realizing why a bachlor's degree is meant to take 4 years! i have bitten off way more than i can chew (which i usually tend to do--becuase i like leading a busy life--prevents me from sitting around and thinking about how depressed i feel), but this time i am afraid that it is just too much and that i am in way over my head. i have to take the LSAT for law school is less than a month and i haven't started studying yet--i moved the test date to get extra parctice out of the Kaplan's prgram i am using to study, beacuse i didn't use it when i first got it and it was about to expire--it allowed me to retake the online couse--and i just checked it and they said they reenacted it, but it says that it expired---GRRR--frusterating--then i have a senior honors project due--haven't made much progress on that becuase i have been focused on the here and now school work--which is lots and lots--i am neglacting (they get done--just not in a timely fashion) my officer duties for an organization i am in--due to being overwhelmed--have yet to apply to law schools--my academic avisor left--and she saif i was set to graduate with what i was taking this semester + my internship next semester--then she left and i come to find out i am 2 credits shy of graduation--and the only solution is to do extra work with my honor's project, not to mention my parents breathing down my back about all of it---sry just had to vent--overwhelmed and don't know what to do...i am just afraid of failing--and disapointing people--myself included--if i don't suceed at all of the above...

oh sweetie you sound so overwelmed. Take a deep breath and remind yourself why you are doing what you are doing. Do it to please and better yourself, not for anyone else.

You are keeping yourself WAY too busy. You wont be disappointing anyone if you take some courses later. Do it in the 4 years that is called for. You are going to be somebody...just dont push yourself to the limits.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
