No motivation
I can't manage school anymore. I only have about six months left until I'm done with high school for good but I dread having to continue with it. I can't get myself to want to. I wish I could just give up but I know that's not an option. I feel hopeless and I don't know what to do. I don't know how to cope with any of it.
The last few months of school can be the hardest. Before the holidays is especially hard.
What kinds of things in general are you doing for yourself to take care of you? That can be a good starting point for getting across the finish line. @XayXay
I guess I haven't really been doing much to take care of myself. I'm not really sure what exactly that would look like?
Well sometimes starting with the basics can be good. Are you eating healthy food and getting enough liquids to drink? What about sleep? Those energy things can help a little.
Are you getting outside and walking at all? Nature has really been known to be a good motivator.
But you have already started to find that motivation by coming here.
Feel free to vent here whenever you want. I always answer in a day or two. @XayXay
How have things been going? I have been thinking about you. @XayXay
not ideal but I'm managing it better! It's finals week and I'm struggling with some if it but I'm getting it done and I'm putting in the effort even if it's sometimes bare minimum. I guess it does kind of help that I know that once I do these assignments, I'm done with this semester. I don't know that I'll be any less burnt out next semester but at least there's a few things I'll have off my plate.

It really does help when you know that the stress pile is going to eventually be done. I am feeling the same way even though I probably have another week of school stuff left. But then I can put it to bed and move forward.
Are you eating okay and getting some rest?@XayXay
eating right and sleeping well is still something I gotta work on. I just need to get myself to go to sleep a little earlier and start actually eating breakfast. Also, good luck with your last few weeks of school! @bestVase7265
Those are the things that give you the survival energy to cope. You could even say no calories=no motivation. Once you realize that trick then it all becomes easier. You have got this! @XayXay
@XayXay I know that last moths of school can be difficult. You have a lot of exams during this time. You are not alone with that. You can always find someone to listen to you without judgment. You are able to finish high school. Have a great day.
