Petition Letter: This year I have been having trouble with my mental health, and I have been noticing that it has been affecting me greatly at school. I have been under extreme stress for the first time in my life and was always very vulnerable to my mental health. I would like to drop the selected course as it has only been adding to the stress that I have been under this year. I have appointments booked in the spring with a psychologist and a therapist to ensure that I can take the proper steps in working to get myself better and learn how to cope with my stress better. I am hoping that having my course load lightened for the rest of the semester and seeking this help will put me on the right track to getting better and allowing for me to do better in my courses and for myself.
