Im close to just dropping the program

I need urgent advice please. I dont know what to do, i’ve been in cosmetology school for almost 2 years (i started in night time classes so id be able to start slow and work with my learning disabilities) and I am burnt out in every way physically and mentally right now. because of this, I’m now chronically ill. It started with me first transferring to another school after being in cosmetology school A for a year and 8 months. The reason why I made this transfer was because I was getting sexually harassed and stalked by a classmate at school A. school A wasn’t doing anything about it and after multiple reports i transferred to school B. I’ve been school B for almost 4 months now yet they still want me to stay because they need more in-house hours in order for me to graduate. But the thing is I’ve run into recent medical issues that I’ve caused me to become physically crippled by the symptoms and I am not able to properly take care of myself as I normally am when I’m at school because of the long hours forced on me. These long hours were also a contributor to me getting sick. I was told by school B that they would be able to drop my hours from 1500 to 1200 but then they decided to turn around today and tell me that they won’t be able to complete that request because I need more in-house hours even though I’ve already been in school for almost 2 years. I’m so close to just dropping out. I’m so physically exhausted. Should I just give up? Is this my body telling me that this isn’t meant for me maybe I’m just not cut out for this. I don’t know. I’ve lost all of my will to keep going. I’ve faught so long and hard for this and I still need to be there for another three months. I’m just so tired.
