Before you go to sleep do something relaxing like have a cup of tea, cuddle an animal, sit outside and listen to music or watch an episode of a tv show that you like

Feeling overwhelmed can be a huge burden and it's not the easiest one to overcome. If you are juggling a lot of different things calendars and alarms have worked for me in the past. Planning out your day can give you a sense of calm. Never forget to plan time for yourself. Find something that makes you calm, that you love to do and plan for that in your day even if it is just 15 minutes.

Try to solve the situation and make sense of it. Try not to overthink because thats just going to make you more stressful. Do something that helps you relax. Like I do shopping when im overwhelmed.

To keep track of everything during hectic times make a schedule with enough time to fit everything without overwhelming yourself. Also getting rid of activities that are not needed or important can help.
