Totally understand your thoughts on this. When I was in school I was my biggest critic, same as I am now in my paintings and my business; no matter how great I do I always think it's not good enough. Instead of focusing on what might occur next semester, do this; do your best to get through this semester and then you can concern yourself with the next semester as it begins. Don't kill yourself though and try your best to keep the urges at bay. You know the ways I've described on other posts so I won't go into it here but they could be a huge help. If you need to, you're more than welcome to add me and pm me

School is a huge stress for me, too. What I try to do is tell myself that my mental/physical health is more important than my grades...then, if i don't do as well as i want to, i remind myself that I'm dealing with a lot of things. it takes some of the guilt away.
Another thing to consider is that you don't have to face the entire year all at once. just take things one day at a time, and if you mess up, it's okay. it happens to everyone. Good luck and i hope things get better for you *hugs*

Yeah, school can seem like a beginning with no end.

It does come to an end eventually, though. Then you can move on and do something that you WANT to do.
