26 years old is YOUNG. I'm in my late 40s and believe I will be something in the future. I'm something right now, even as a woman on disability with no kids. You're something right now, too. Please get back to some therapy and/or treatment so that you can realize that more fully.

Could not agree with this more. It was the first thing I thought. That's more credits than even full time, AND 30 hours a week working????!! Yikes! Of COURSE it was a disaster -- it would be for ANYONE(!) I work 36 hours a week and am glad to keep up with the basics, let alone schooling.
And I'll also second that 26 is young.
Don't beat yourself up. Dust off and proceed with a do-able plan. Avail yourself of the re-dos. You are
NOT an idiot or failure!! You just had an overly ambitious plan. It happens.
Breathe. Take it a step at a time. You've got this.
