I’m tired boss. I’ve had a really rough semester and I can’t look at my calculus without my eyes glazing over. Now that it’s time for the final I’m looking back at all the concepts I had “breakthrough” moments with… And I got nothing. Can’t remember a lick. I don’t have any gusto in me still, I’m already planning to retake the course but fuck me ive never experienced burnout like this.

Is this normal?

    It could get pretty bad pretty fast if you are not careful. Been in the situation a couple of times, thinking “meh. I will push through it”. And then it got ugly. Please take care of yourself and take all the help you can get.

      Yeah that’s true, I think I need to get better about actually taking breaks every single hour instead of pushing on.

      Whats not helping is I’m no longer working and bills are coming hard and fast, so I’m actively trying to think up a way to make money while doing all this
