Ok, so I come from a very disfunctional family. I am haveing so much trouble with my family and I am haveing trouble getting through college. I only have one more week but then theres three more years to have to get through. I am so scared that my finances or something like that is going to prevent me from finishing college. My grades have dropped to bearly passing. I am so stressed out all of the time and I am just trying to get everything done that I need to. I am tired of fighting with my grandma and I am worried that she is going to leave me to rot. She has threatened to fo this a lot lately. She may not even come to my concert tonight and that hurts me bacause this is my very first quartet concert. I am so nervous and I wanted her there to relieve some of the stress. But really, if I see her before hand then I will get even more stressed because she will probably just yell at me. We were supposed to go comping this weekend but I don't think that that is going to happen. I am just so upset. I am just so stressed. I am out of options. I need someone to help me!

Wow, so right off the bat, I have no idea what it's like to be in your shoes. My parents are together, and my whole family eats dinner together each night. I have no idea and would never try to say that "I understand" because I don't. Just know that there are people out there who care for you and only want the best to happen - you just need to ask for their help.
Hang in there until this semester is over. I would try to move out and move in with a few friends and split rent. If your grandmother is stressing you out that bad then you will contuine to suffer unless you are just going through a rocky patch. If it is just a rocky patch wait that out.
As for school try looking for scholarships, fasfa, and grants or try to see if you can make payments each year. If you don't have a job get a part time one while you are in school to pay for it. That is what I am doing. I wish I could provide better advice.
Best of Luck,
Dani

yeah, do the scholarship thing! go to fastweb and sign up there. They give you scholarshps you can try to go for. Some essays, some contests, some are just applications, anything. Trust me - scholarships come in handy!
