You said you need a degree, what are the reasons, are you doing it for yourself or because you feel forced to/because you just need it? When is your next break from the courses?
Thank you for your response!

I am enrolled in an online university, instead of semesters we have courses that are 7 weeks long. After every completed course we start another one. We can go at our own pace if needed. I might have to call my adviser and see if it is possible for me to take a little break. The reason I'm going after a degree is that I need it. I have seen my family members struggle to make it and I don't want to be a victim of that. I kind of feel pressured because they all expect me to be this person that is capable of great success. Which I can be but I feel so lost, and like I'm doing it for the wrong reasons. I'm unsure of what I should do at this point.
