Today I wanted to give you some tips on getting into study mode and surviving long study sessions:

Have a plan -Knowing what you’re about to study and how much you need to study can take a lot of confusion off your plate. Plus if you’re a bit weird like me and plans excite you, this planning can get you a tad bit more excited to work and be productive.

Good stationery -I’m not saying go and buy a lot of new pens, I’m saying to take your favourite pen. It doesn’t have to be expensive or fancy or pretty. It needs to fit your needs. 

Organise your work space -Be careful not to procrastinate by cleaning your whole house, okay? Just organise the space around you a bit to have a clearer mind.

Have materials and other necessities ready close by -Try to minimize the times when you have to get up and get something. It can snap you out of the zone.

Get rid of distractions -Put your phone away, turn off the TV and get a calm surrounding. This of course isn’t always possible but try your best to get rid off distracting things.

Schedule breaks! -This one is so important. Make sure you take breaks often and make the breaks relaxing. Don’t just scroll on your phone. Go get a snack, work out or just read for 10 minutes.

Water -Always have water nearby. You can also add tea and snacks but water is the main point here.

With friends or alone? -Think about whether you’re better at working alone or with friends. I have found out that each kind of work requiers different approach. For me is better to do homework and projects with friends but studying is something I always do alone.

write letters to your friends

leave nice messages in library books on post its

greet and say thank you to cashiers, bus drivers, or anybody of assistance to you

don’t hesitate to pick up any trash you see (mother earth appreciates this)

see what you can donate to children’s hospitals (like coloring books, crayons, etc.)

take photos of your friends. loads of em.

say hi or wave to classmates in the halls even if you’ve barely spoken or have maybe just had one conversation

when you say hi, say hi [name]. simple name recognition makes people feel seen and appreciated.

compliment strangers (however, do not catcall. don’t do it. just don’t.)

compliment your friends and your family (don’t be afraid to show your love for them. you lose nothing and they gain so much)

give that extra change to the homeless person. look them in the eye because “you have more in common with every homeless person than with any billionaire” (YooperDSA on twitter)

put money (if you have some to spare) in that tip jar!! sometimes people depend on a little extra money to help pay for rent, to buy mom a gift, or maybe a simple bath bomb for self care. tips are always appreciated.

maybe do some chores before being asked. it’ll feel better when you do it out of your own will then when you’re told, and it will be noticed and appreciated

smile! your smile is contagious :)

some nice lil quotes

“never regret being a good person, to the wrong people. your behavior says everything about you, and their behavior says enough about them” unknown

“if someone makes you happy, make them happier” by @latenights

“my wish for you is that you continue. continue to be who and how you are, to astonish a mean world with your acts of kindness. continue to allow humor to lighten the burden of your tender heart.” by maya angelou

“begin your day with an ‘i get to’ mentality instead of a ‘i have to’ thought process...i get to go to work. i get to have a busy day. whatever it may be. we often dress our opportunities as stress, but they are in fact blessings.” unknown

Today I wanted to share some tips on how to make studying easier despite mental illness. I chose to mention anxiety and depression specifically because it’s what I have experience with.

Give yourself time -I know this one is easier said than done, especially when your illness makes you procrastinate. But this will help you fight overwhelm so much I promise. Try to start doing things as soon as you can. Talk yourself into starting. Just starting, nothing more.

Divide tasks into smaller chunks -If you give yourself time, then you can work small piece by piece. Writing 10 page essay is overwhelming as hell but knowing you have to write a few words per day or just do research will help you dial the feelings down a bit.

Just start -Tell yourself you have to do this just for 5 minutes. Just 5 minutes. Nothing bad can happen to you in 5 minutes. This will get you started and once you’re in it and going, you should be able to continue for a lot longer.

Something is better than nothing -You might not be able to memorise all 20 pages or write the entire essay right now, but if you start and learn one page or write half a page, you’re already moving forward.

Done is what we’re going for -Just get it done. Not perfect, not even good. Just done. Because sometimes it’s the best thing you can do for yourself.

It’s never as important as it seems -Things always seem huge and scary but ultimately, it’s never that bad. Hell, if you really zoom out you’ll realise the most important thing is just staying alive and a bad grade isn’t going to kill you.

Priotitize -Sometimes you just won’t have the energy to do everything, so pick the most important ones and leave the rest. You might come back to it later, you might not.

Ask for help if you need it -Ask teachers, ask friends. Know you’re not alone.

Be kind to yourself -Do not beat yourself up over failing things or feeling like you’re not doing as well as others. Just realise that unlike healthy people, you’re dragging this huge boulder. Sometimes lighter, sometimes heavier, but it’s always an extra weight. And yet you’re running the same race and you’re surviving. You should be proud of yourself.

Relax properly -Make time for yourself. Do things that doesn’t involve mindless scrolling. Get all the rest you need.

I was on spring break/study leave for most of April. At the beginning, I wasn’t really doing 10 hours, more 6-8, but as exams drew closer, I was doing about 10. I work best in the morning, so I’d wake up at about 6:30-ish and be ready to study by 7-7:30. I’d study until 12, take a break for lunch, and then study from about 1-6 (or whenever I finished what I’d allocated myself for the day; sometimes I’d have to do a bit after dinner, sometimes I’d finish early).
