Thinking about Judo

What can I expect? If the going gets too rough, can I take a breather? If there are some rolls I just can't do (full backward roll seems to be the hardest for me) does that pretty much rule Judo out? Should I look at Aikido instead?
I would appreciate any advice. I am presently doing boxing (non-sparring) and some BJJ with a private teacher. Mostly ground work. No flips or throws yet.
