You only have 6 classes left??? Girl, that's un-freaking-believable! I'm 36 and have been going to college off and on all my adult life and I'm nowhere near close to being done. I think you are doing much better than you realize. And there's absolutely nothing wrong with Community College. Usually the classes are smaller and the teacher has more time to help you. I don't know what your major is, but unless you're trying to be some big time lawyer who needs a degree from an Ivy League school or something, where you get your degree doesn't really matter all that much. Especially now days when everyone's taking classes online and everything.
You know, even if you were to take one class a semester, you would be done in a few years and way ahead of alot of other people (including myself). Don't be so hard on yourself! I had no idea you were so close to finishing! I'm so proud of you! No matter what you do for the rest of your life, you have accomplished what many many people won't in a lifetime. Be proud!
And if you need to take some time off, just get you a job at MickyD's for a few months to give your brain a break from school. Working fast food or retail can be very humbling. You may find yourself running back to college!
