okay i think it’s clear that ur mental health is declining, and it’s totally understandable why. i really recommend getting outside most days, even for a few minutes (weather permitting), and having a goal/something you want to have done by the end of the day. sometimes you won’t complete it, and that’s okay! i like to tell my parents (or u could tell u bf) that “today i want to do xyz” bc for me that like generates some accountability for it. engage in any hobbies u have (i need to do that)! ❤️❤️

My semester ended a month ago and I still feel just as if not more exhausted. And it feels so stupid because I’m not even doing that much compared to my active college life.-
