Do you have disability services in the form of teaching and learning development services, or something like that? I'd say it would be worth making contact with them and seeing what (if any) assistance they may be able to offer you. Different places offer different things... Have different amounts of funding etc.
I've heard good things (generally) about people getting help with organization / scheduling. Assistance with breaking a big project down into simpler components to make manageable steps. Help with scheduling times to work on components. Accountability meetings to help with motivation.
It really does depend on a whole bunch of things I know nothing about... But my inclination would be to say to only take 2 courses and have the aim (and plan!) to meet all deadlines. The idea being for you to build confidence in your ability. Nobody likes that feeling of fighting a losing battle or swimming upstream against a heavy current all the time... Would be good to get some experience of succeeding... Some emotional reward for all the time and effort you are putting in. Would make the whole process more enjoyable. Might help you find your passion / what line you want to pursue... With having some of the pressure off...
You probably have a couple weeks to finalize enrollment...
I think gg was pretty good at this kind of stuff...
I didn't know you were in school / had been having a break from it.
