Damn dudes, I did it this time.

I've been just in the worst rut lately. I had an injury in the gym that lasted a couple months, and luckily it was temporary, but before I found that out I thought it might be permanent (I thought it was a disc herniation, turned out to be an SI Joint thing) Terrible sciatic pain, ect; I couldn't really do anything for months, even moving around was tough...anyway long story short, I just thought I'd never lift again...I gained some unnecessary fat, all my lifts went down. I was about to hit 5 plate on squat, not I'm almost falling down hitting 3. Just annoying, I felt weak and fat all the time, and It affected everything else in my life and just overall depressed me.

So I'm in grad school, in 3 classes. I literally didn't do anything for the first half of the semester. I showed up, but handed nothing in, nothing; and 2 of the classes are online, so that's all there is to do. I couldn't even open the emails, but after the month I was like shit, and came to a bunch of professors like "you need to drop the class, this is too much" ect. I made a come back though, and caught up on that month of work, and my professors were happy, and told me to just keep up.

I couldn't. I fell behind again. I did nothing after that point, haven't answered anything, and now I'm in the last week or two, I don't even know. All in all I'm behind about 70 online quizzes between 2 classes, each with about 10 questions, and in the other class which is more writing intensive, I'm behind about 50 pages of writing.

I can't not do it, because I paid for the classes, and I'm almost done with grad school...and it would be so fucking stupid to fail them, and at best have to pay again to take them again, and at worst, which is far more likely get kicked from the program and never finish, after finishing 80% of it.

Even if I get it all done, I don't know if they'll accept anything. This is quite the fucking hole I've dug myself into here...I've never failed a class before, and I've done a lot of work in the clutch including about 30 pages of writing in 1 night back in undergrad for a few classes...but this is just the next level definition of getting fucked during finals week.
