I re-enrolled into college (starting later this week) and am worried not about grades (I had a 4.0 when I left) but am worried about the stress it'll cause and worried about handling that stress negatively. Any suggestions?

Get as much rest as you can, don't procrastinate,.and try and remember, while it's important, it's not the end of the world if you get a little overwhelmed. Good luck!

Human services. I want to work as a victim's advocate in cases of sexual abuse.

I'm not the best with that. But am going to try making a schedule for myself.

I would see if the college has a counselor or a learning specialist on hand. The most important thing, imo, is being proactive. Think about your classes and about which ones will be the most stressful. If you know for instance, that science is difficult for you and takes you longer to finish your homework assignments, that can help you plan how you manage your time outside of class. A counselor or learning specialist can be a lot of help even if you don't have a diagnosed LD. I know my school learning specialist is always happy to meet with students to help them plan their afterschool schedules, help break down a large assignment, teach them study techniques, etc. It might be worth a shot to see if there is anyone like that you might be able to be your advocate and help you settle back into the school routine.
