Re: The negative effects of FRC

I really overdid it in high school (to the point that I chose myself to be less involved in FRC my senior year). I really think that helped me with time management, willpower to focus, etc., skills that have served me really well in college and internships. At the time, though, it was hell. FRC was awesome, getting a few hours of sleep a night for several months was not. My advice to the OP is to step back as much as you feel you need. The team will survive without you (as long as you're upfront about your intentions and don't just flake).
