Okay. I have two jobs and I go to college full time. I work 6 days a week and go to classes five days a week. I'm totally stressing out, and I just want to pass out. I don't really have a good group of friends to rely on [I wish I did.], and I just need a break. And that doesn't come till the end of the semester. I also barely ever have any alone time. Which is something I desperately need.
If you're this busy, or if you're not, how do you deal with it?! |

Take a step back and breathe. When I used to be stressed out in college, I just did something else, whether it be watching tv, stepping out for a bit, exercising, going to a local bar
 , or calling up some friends. It's what you make of it. Relax, enjoy, and be happy.

I used to be that busy also... during my freshman year of college.. I had school for 4 days... Monday - Thursday and I had work 4-5 days a week... it was hard... I don't know how I did it.. but now... it's my 2nd year of college.. and I run my own business with the husband.. it's not so bad... we run the business during the day.. and we have school at night... you just gotta learn to balance the two...
 and not stress so much... maybe you shouldn't work that many hours??

Hehe, I wish I didn't have to. But I need the money. As do most people, right?

Take a couple days of work off and give yourself a mental health day
Go shop, or the spa  And go to clubs or something and meet someone. Maybe even a boyfriend if you don't have one already

I just listen to music and write poetry when I need to calm down and relax.
Then I stay up all night and take a long bath around 2 A.M. Hey, it works for me. |
