College and stress? Help?

Question

I just started back in june. I started out pretty good, but now that its toward the end of the quarter. Im very irritable. I try to figure out whats bothering me, but nothings unusual seems to come to me. Do you think my schooling is doing this. I also have two lovely kids and I have been trying to get them ready for school, deal with mine and their sicknesses and take care of home. Does anyone have any suggestions. Anything? Help?

Whew! Stressful life, but you CAN handle it. I was married & had one child in my Junior year + odd jobs to feed us. Keep your eyes on your future & your mind & grit can help you bring everything together. Not easy, but it WILL pay off later. (Once every two weeks, my mo-in-law would watch the kid while my wife 'n' me went a block away to sip a coke & watch TV [we didn't even have TV]). I'm a retired physician now... it was all worth it.

Allow at least 30 minutes everyday for yourself & exercise! If you're a church-goer, ask for help. They'll find a way. Just do it! Good luck! :)
