If you really need a break, see if your university has an "academic leave" policy or a sabbatical policy. Some universities will let you take 12 months away from your classes and then come back without any consequences. You could take a year off, do what you really want with your life, and then come back refreshed to your last year of studies. The greatest danger is that you just won't want to go back.
