I recently graduated in July, and let me tell you, it was hell. I have bipolar and it was in remission when I started college so first bit I did well. Got manic, made the deans list. Then crashed. I flunked 2 semesters, was hospitalized and took a medical withdrawal for a year and a half. Went back, did ok fall semester, spring semester went downhill again, hospitalized over spring break, only was able to finish the semester cause my mom moved in with me and took control of my life. Had to make up some credits over summer semester, but finally I was finished! These were not the best years of my life. I had friends pre-hospitalization at my job, but lost them all when I took my time off and moved. I tried to join clubs but I never felt welcome. My degrees in theatre so I was somewhat involved, but not to the degree that everyone else was or that I should have been for successful completion of my program.

If your minds not in it now, I'd suggest taking a break, getting your brain sorted out, and then going back when you feel ready. It may take time.
