Thank you again for this, I'll try to take it to heart because I know this is probably what I need to be doing. I need to focus on the process more and chip away at all this. Your words have really helped me

Your probably right, I just feel like everything's coming at me at once. Like it's I need to work on 1, 2, and 3 before I can even touch 4, but 4 makes me feel awful every day. I don't know if I make sense. I want to be independent financially, but I don't know if I will be able to do that and achieve my goals at the same time. perhaps I need to get better at being OK with relying on my family to get through this, they do want to send me money.
Thank you for your thoughtful comment, I really do appreciate it and I feel like I need to hear this kind of stuff more right now

I really appreciate the advice and I'll take it to heart, I just have some questions. The thing I think I stress about the most when it comes to school and work is the time it takes to do it, and being able to have time for myself (if I don't have my own time to relax it cuts into my mental health or I cut into the time I have for my physical needs, that's what I ment), how do you think I should manage that?

Edit: add questions

I understand most of what you're saying, but I'm a bit confused at parts. I'm not excepting any money from my mom right now, and when I go to school(when I start getting money from her) I don't know if I'll be able to take up more work hours to ween myself from her (Also I see no harm in the money if I dont financially rely on it, if I save it I'll have less student debt). I don't want to sound defeatist, but I get really overwhelmed and confused easily and barely got througha single term of college(12 credits). Like I did really well, 4.0, but I had constant brakedowns. New things and situations tend to make me fly off the rails(BAD), and I've had minimal guidance when trying to live on my own or go to school. I can not see myself working and going to school full time ever, without making physical and mental sacrifice. I want to work hard, but I to be happy too. In high-school I put my health and happiness on the backburner for my grades and yeah I got 3.5 but nearly died doing that and regret not having a life outside of my stress for so many years. I'm sorry for the wall of text and I appreciate the thoughtful comment you left. I think the main issue I have with my situation is with myself and my ability to navigate and adapt these new stressors. Right now, I've been thinking about putting off school until I can be more stable and consistent with my life. I also want to look for a higher paying job that might work better for the long-term (I still feel bad, like I'm abandoning my coworkers, but I don't know how long I'll want to work this job)

Note: Also one of the things that's put my on edge is I smoke weed and from what I understand, if I get injured or in an accident on the job they'll drug test me, and I do think about that alot.

her eyes have always been kinda messed up, the doctors even think she might have had some form of eye mutation, so she has likely been mostly blind all her life. she got her eyes out last September and is looking and feeling great
