Thinking of giving up on doing Masters

LegacyUser

Started a long distance Masters course 2 years ago in a subject I really wanted to do. All was good at the start then went horribly wrong. Was told I'd be losing my job (the course required me to be working in this particular area). Found out my co-worker and supposed mentor had made false accusations about me. Nothing came of it but even to this day the betrayal still hurts very deeply.
Ended up badly depressed, self harming. So I took a year out of Uni to sort myself out.
I had done well in the first module but second one I just got the required mark.
Persuaded myself that if I could motivate myself & work hard I could make up the marks with other modules.
Took ages for me to complete the next module as once again my current job is about to finish shortly & I'm usually too exhausted/not motivated/ not sure how to do assignments anymore.
Got results of the latest module the other day only to find out I've failed it.
It feels like this gaping black hole has suddenly appeared in my chest. I'd been fairly happy, doing better up to this.
I'm seriously wondering if there is any point continuing with the course, jobs are scare in this area, yes it's something I've always wanted to do. But is it worth putting myself financially & emotionally through this only to scrape a pass in the end (if I'm lucky)?
I'd be grateful to hear from anyone who has had a similar exprience & how they dealt with it. I know at the end of the day it's going to be my decision. I just feel like such a failure and want this pain to go away.

Honestly, that sucks. But, it doesn't sound like it's worth that much drama to push through with the Masters if as you say there is little to be gained from the end result, and that doing so is putting you through hell.

Having said that do you really want to throw the effort away? Is this something you can take a break from and return to in a little while when you've had a chance to recollect yourself? Depending on how close you are to completing this it might be worth it to push through.

In reality though, myself, I went to college doing something I thought I would like, had fun for a little while but through a depression, family death, some drama, and realising I had no passion for the work I was doing - I dropped out after the 2nd year, having failed 2 of the classes and scraping a 3rd barely. I haven't yet gone back to college but I have a better idea now of what I want to do than what I did before, in a parallel field. It just didn't make any sense at that point to try and salvage 1.5 years of a 4 year course.

Have you perhaps thought about looking for work now, with the qualifications you already have?

If I really wanted a masters in a subject that I love, I wouldn't let somebody spreading rumors and a bit of hard work get in my my. OP, get your masters, it'll be worth it.
