Up till today I was studying a diploma and two degrees all at the same time.This was great for a while but became too much work. As of today I quit my diploma (counselling). I thought this was tho only option (unless you count failing all three!) as there just wasn't enough time for them all.

However, this has caused major problems! Some of the others agree with me but as usual there are those that disagree! They think I should have continued as they think because of the subject it helped us and it was a place where some of the younger ones could come out and feel truly safe and still others think I should have continued because as much as I say I will they dont think ill start it again later when ive more time!

This has caused major problems for the two weeks ive been thinking about it but even more problems now Ive actually done it. No one seems willing to listen to anyone else's views! Any ideas on how to resolve this or is it just gonna have to blow over?

For us we would say, give them a timeline and a plan for how you'll actually go back, and stick to it (unless it's really impossible in which case you have to sit back down and renegotiate, not just renege). Unless you really /don't/ plan to, in which case, yes, you'll just be fighting it out. :)

Sounds like you are all burnt out. I'd suggest
that you all take some time off if you can to
sort it out.

..Then talk to your academic advisor and see if he/she
has any suggestions. If they are not helpfull try the
dean's office.

Students get overwealmed all the time. I hate incompletes
but i have resorted to taking an incomplete more than once
only to finish well later.

Well i hope lightening the load a bit will help. I do know a bit
of what you are going through. I had a terrible time in college and
recently had to bow out of massage school for health reasons - ear
infections that would not go away...
