My hard time caught up with me- almost

I've been feeling like I'm sinking in school. Part extreme tiredness, part new scripts messing with my brain- or both. I finally came up with the conclusion, after talking with several friends and my dad that I took on too much at once- the classes were hard ALONE nevermind all together.

So yesterday, thinking it over, going rationally from building to building, making SURE I wasn't manic or depressed, I withdrew completely from classes. This way, I can retake them, not get bad grades OR have them be average with the grades I get when I DO retake them. I will get "W" grades and my GPA will NOT change. Otherwise, I felt like I was headed for E's in all classes- especially since you cannot withdraw forever. I felt really guilty about this, until I realized that I've been taking on a lot with bipolar and my brain really is just letting things roll off of it as if it were covered in a rubber tarp. When I have decided which class I want in the Winter term, I will sign up for it asap.

Today I spent the day with my kids and made some funny captions at that site "I can has cheezburger".

Sounds like you are doing good self-care. Have a break and concentrate on you and then back to it at a later date.

Moose I hope you're doing well.

Hey Moose...I think you did the right thing for yourself at this moment in your life. You sound like you are dealing with it well.

Best wishes to you...
