Last uni experience was crap, why am I doing it again?

I graduated from university in 2019 November just prior to the pandemic in nursing related studies. I have graduated with the diploma level training; enough to be qualified and work but I always told myself I wanted to do more and gain my degree. Last time I had to move for university into a shared house and it was awful and my confidence for one or two things, just completely vanished; and I developed depression.
I’m now married and living with my husband; after working for 2 years during the pandemic included. My circumstances are entirely different now and I have the support of my husband who was my long distance boyfriend at the time i finished my diploma. He is in full support of my finishing what I feel I must but last time I went to university I came home with the worst mental health i have ever had.
This course is classed as a top up and i will be doing it mainly from home but occasionally travelling to the university for lectures or events. I am extremely nervous that my mental health will take a hit again. The anxiety I developed the first time around meant that I didn’t touch assignments till the last possible minute and worked all hours of the day building up extra hours when I didn’t need to. I was required to work 3000 hours across the 2 year period and I racked up 3600.
My mindset is entirely different now and I have a more positive outlook since working and finding my passions. However, I’m very nervous to start and would like to ask if anyone has any supportive advice they could pass on?

This is exactly what happened to me in the first year of my uni course (except I suffered from anxiety not depression) I turned it round the second year by planning to the day when I would work on assignments and making sure this was months in advance to when they were to be due. I would make a rough draft for every assignment at the start of the year no matter when they were due I would work on these every week to ensure even at the first mention of an assignment check I had already done at least 50% of the work. Aside from this I also made sure I took a day off completely every week and if I felt myself slipping (mentally) because I had already done the work necessary I could then take breaks when needed. I hope you have more success with your top up year! I’m sure you will do great!
