First of all good for you for hanging in there. You are in a bit of a challenging transition stage going back to school and that is going to understandably feel intimidating. I think you should check with your mental health team that you are fit enough to be going back to school- working 1 let alone 2 jobs.
You have done really amazingly, and I think that as frustrating as things are, you just need to know which direction you want to go- ask for help from family, friends, University, work, health professionals- and give yourself permission to be stressed. Symptoms become more heightened at this stage.
Is it possible to go to University part time and keep your jobs? What do you need to feel good about life- studying and working- paying bills or focusing on a career? Will you miss this job you are going to quit? Are you supported at either of your workplaces?
I had a support worker at university and that made such a difference from remembering to fill my prescriptions to going to exercise to just not being isolated because my classmates did not know anything was wrong with me. Your vocalizations and gestures may make your challenges more visible, but it doesn't make your situation less important.
Ask for help from early. Look for support and accept it. It is available- it may just be a bit of a slog putting it in place. You deserve to feel safe and happy. Hugs
