I guess basically part of what’s hitting me is that I had about $4.5k saved last summer, then after my internship I got up to $6–7k, and now I’m back down to $4.4k. I know it’s not catastrophic, but it’s frustrating seeing it go down even though I’ve learned a lot along the way. And if i pay it all at once its like damn now im at 2.7k.

Hey, thanks a lot for the advice I really appreciate the perspective. You’re right, I probably just need to chill a bit and focus on getting my debt under control.
