I am failing 3 of my most important classes right now, my room is a mess, I just broke up with my boyfriend for a little break who is now suicidale and seems to forget that I am going through the same thing as him, I haven't gotten more than 4 hours of sleep for the past month, and I can barley get through one class period without going on the verge of tears. I take a medication that helps me pay attention, there was a week when I didnt have them and that explains my grades. Someone please help I don't know what to do

Please keep in mind that your are not resposible for your (ex?) boyfriends behaviour or threats of suicide. If you think he is likely to try you should report it to the student councillor/meduical professional they have at the uni. In fact do this anyway that way you know you have done what you can. Also advice him to get help but remember you cannot and should not force him, this is his resposibility not yours. You cannot help people who wont help themselves. For him to dump on you while not taking steps to help himself is unfair and selfish. And the more you feed that behaviour with yout attention the more it will continue. I have had personnal experiance with this. If you truly believe he is in danger then tell a medical professional who is trained and in a better position to help than you are. But do not accept responsability for his actions and do not accept emotional blackmail in any form.
OK, that said now you need to spend some time thinking about and looking after your self. What meds do you take for concentration? Are they stimulant based? Maybe some sort of amphetamine? These. will keep you awake, increase your stress levels and contribute to worry and paranoia. Sure they may help you concentrate in the short term but long term not sleeping is your biggest enemy with concentration and stress. Please take a step back from it all. Take time out and rest. 1 week off uni to rest and recover is better than another 4 weeks of learning nothing because your exhausted and stressed out. Me time is what you need, with some good nights rest. Come of the stimulants (including caffiene after 4pm) and relax. If you cannot sleep don't worry just replaxe with a good book. Keep away from the phone. lablet and laptop at night as well. If you still have trouble speaking go and speak to your gp.
You said you have problems of your own. Besides boyfriend and sleep what of problems do you have? Please let us know so we can help.

I would suggest the first thing is to speak to your doctor. Be honest with them and explain how you are and feel. Is it your schooling or your break up that has brought these feelings on, or are there other issues? They will listen and it maybe that you need some form of medication to help you, even if only for a while. Sleeping will help, so even if you just talk to them about that please do.
Life can be cruel and we do not always get or have the answers, but there are always others that have experienced the same so please do not feel alone. Others on here will always offer you support, be strong and chat here, it can help.
