Just stop and breath.
Why are you stressed?

@REMsleep
I’m easily overwhelmed and I’m a perfectionist. So most things stress me out. I’m going to call my doctor and see if they can hook me up with a counselor. I can’t take it anymore. School, military, and my job are driving me crazy. I’m thinking about too much at once. I don’t have a need to overachieve I just want to get it done. At the beginning of the semester I was fine. I was doing my work and wasn’t stressed. Not sure what happen from August to now.

You need some r&r.. you can always take a break from school, get a regular job for a bit and then come back later.
