Can your advisor and/or professors help? And/or any school counseling services? There are resources in place to help you balance things. Use them; they do you no good if you don't. You're very far from the only student to feel overwhelmed by your workload.
That said, you may feel more than free to vent at me at any time and in any manner you need to, and I will listen and help as I can. *hugs*
Oh honey. I second Gen's comment; advisor, professors, school counseling? Talk to someone to see if there's anything that can be done to help you manage or to balance out your courseload better. And you're absolutely welcome to talk to me about these things, always.
But if it's really too much - people above are right; advisors, RAs and counselors are there for a reason, and that's to help you with stuff like this when it gets too much.
Gen is wise, and her comment is useful. Universities don't want you to fail out because of too much stress. They usually provide services to people who are experiencing stress. But unless things are very obviously bad, the services won't find you, you have to go to them. Go to your school counselor and your individual professors and explain the situation, and see what they say.
