applying for college for the first time in 6 years

ive flunked out twice already and very nervous about going back to school i tried to pick a program im very interested in and just a certificate program to learn the skills and maybe the teachers will know of some jobs i can do after i complete the program any advice on not having another mental breakdown halfway through the semester and failing again? im afraid my medication may not be enough, ill need coping skills too

Make use of every support service available to you, especially the college's own one. Basically just set up multiple safety nets to ensure that no matter how bad it gets, you never end up flunking.
