I'm a sophomore, and I've never done anything like this before. I pride myself on my grades, but this semester has hit me like a truck. I have two midterms, a lab report, and a part-time job, and I'm genuinely drowning. I'm considering going to a website and just... buying a 5-page essay for my easiest class. The guilt is already eating me alive. I keep thinking, 'What if my parents find out? What if I get expelled?' But then I look at my to-do list and I feel physically ill. Has anyone else been through this 'first-time guilt'? How did you justify it to yourself? Or did you decide not to, and how did you survive?
