Taking a semester off

I need to take a semester off to focus on some addiction and mental health stuff. I need to know:

  1. Which MRU department to talk to, or if I should just not pay for the semester

  2. How my student loans will be affected. I'll be at the 5th year of my program, and I wonder if taking a "6th" year will make me ineligible for loans

If anyone has any advice or knows who I can talk to, I would greatly appreciate it

Last-year burnout advice?

I'm going into my last year of uni, which will be my 5th. I failed two classes last semester, and one the semester before because I am just losing the energy to finish my degree. I love the material and doing the work, but I procrastinate. Maybe out of a fear of failure. The work is genuinely easy for me, even if I am not giving 100%. So I don't know why I'm afraid to fail.

I do also have mental health issues which I am dealing with using meds and therapy.

Has anyone been in the same boat?
