Do y’all ever wake up at random hours of the morning and are overcome with anxiety by the amount of class work that you have due? I hate college 😪

Absolutely. It’s hard, but I have to remind myself that I’ve got this. I am able to do so much and if I fail, that doesn’t mean I’m not good enough or strong enough or smart enough— it means I need a little bit of help. And that’s ok!

Occasionally. One of the ways that I deal with this is to pull out my canvas and look at what it is that I have due TOMORROW ONLY. Not everything that's in my to do list. Typically it isn't that much work (especially for an engineering student), which puts me at ease for the night and I calm down

I once I had dream that I checked my grades and I had a 0% and a 64% (at the time, I was in middle school and we worked at a different graduating scale where a 69 and below was an F). I literally woke up in a panic and hopped on my phone to check my grades. It was like 6am. That was years ago and it’s still one of the worst ways I’ve woken up
