As a 23-year-old man dealing with the stresses of being a student during this pandemic, I’ve found it really challenging to stay motivated and focused. It’s been tough not being able to socialize with friends and feeling isolated while trying to keep up with school work. However, I’ve been trying to find healthy ways to cope, like taking breaks, connecting with others virtually, and seeking support when I need it. I’ve also been reminding myself that it’s okay to feel overwhelmed and that I’m not alone in this struggle. It’s important to remember that this is temporary and there are brighter days ahead. Hang in there, everyone. We’ll get through this together.
