life and "stuff"

 Been struggling for a few weeks now.  Seems my weight has taken a back seat to other life stuff at the moment.  That doesn't mean I haven't been watching what I am eating and drinking etc.  I still eat the protein and make sure I get in enough water and such.
I am completely overwhelmed with life in other areas.  I am in college (at age 41) and struggling  to make it work.  I am almost done set to graduate in May.  But am ready to call it quits.  The vitamins and protein and such has made me sick to the point of throwing up most of the time.  Hence not getting to class or when I am there, having to leave to head to the bathroom.
Also, I am on disability.  SS is having a fit with the debt stuff in Washington and pulled it out of their butts that I was overpayed some 15-17 years ago.  So am trying to figure that out so they don't take my income away so I can pay rent, utlitlies, etc etc.
There is more...but I think you get the idea.  How do I just cope and deal with everything that comes at me all at once?
I see my therapist once a week.  Try to get ideas and set small goals with her.  That seems overwhelming at times too.
suggestions?

Wish i had answers.
One day at a time and keep your eyes on your goal of graduation.
that is a feather in your cap that can't be removed!
I wish I'd graduated years ago as I really see it's hindering me now as I look for work

Julie, keep working on your education, it will serve you good.  What are you taking/studying?

I am glad you are seeing a therapist, they have great suggestions.  Take this one day at a time and do not give up on yourself.  Keep telling yourself positive affirmations.

 My degree will be in Youth, Leisure and Human Services.  My concentration is NonProfit Administration and Youth Leadership.  That is a mouthful.  LOL
I have come to realize that I was angry at everything.  Anger sure takes the joy right out of everything when it comes right down to it.
I am a part of a great Christian group, and am really working on getting some hope back.
I will be seeing an orthopedic doc again today.  same one who keeps telling me nothing is wrong with my leg.  maybe today he will see that there is SOMETHING wrong.  not being able to walk very well should say something.  we'll see.
thanks for your support guys.  I appreciate it.
hugs

That is a mouthful of a degree Julie.  Best of luck.  Keep working on the positive attitude.  You are the only one that can keep it on the bright side.  Being angry at things only harms oneself.  Like they say, the only one we can change is ourself.

Be kind to yourself, do something nice for you every day. Practice positive self talk.  Being positive is a personal choice, and it works!!!    Hugs
