First you have to separate the urgent work from the not so urgent . When you have your priorities clear then organise your time . I would advise doing a time table or a plan for the week and try achieving the objetives each day. And always always have a plan B and complete everything with time , not in the last minute.

Talk to your peers, and talk to your supervisor or leader. This is a major concern and the company can help cope with these stressors. Also take time to go through the Time Management activities, these are helpful tools that will allow you to accept higher workloads and mitigate burnout.

Make a To do list but that list should consist of have Do's, Should do's and must Do's in that order, have do's Is the section of priorities section and it is the most important one, or break down the task into chunks you can manage

Work load is equally stressful than any other stresses of life, or may be even more. But to begin with we must remember that this sort of a stress tends to take you away from your life in general. Your true happiness, your family, your inner peace, your hobbies, everything. Eventually you fail to even handle the work load in the way you initially did. So the first solution is to focus on your priorities in both work and life. Balance it out as per priority. Don't forget to take out some time for yourself and your family in a daily basis and just relax. Or may be do yoga/take a walk. You will feel more productive at work as well as be happy from within. And try to bring as less of work to home as possible. Think twice before making any commitments both at personal and professional life. And finally, don't forget to smile every now and then 😊

Make a list of things you need to do first and then go down the list. I would also take a 15 minute break and sit down drink tea or any thing that would be good soothing then go on with your day

One possible way to cope can be to work with people. Through extensive experience I can say this worked wonders for me. Working with other people can allow you to ask questions if you have any and also gives you the opportunity to talk with others to have some external stimulus. This is coming from an academic standpoint which I am making the assumption is similar to yours. Always leave a little bit of time for yourself as well. Perhaps set aside 20-30 minutes to read a book, or even take a run. Keeping a healthy body and mind is integral to performing well in day to day life. I wish you nothing but the best in the future. Never be afraid to reach out for help!

The best way to decrease work load is by eliminating distractions, they really wipe your energy out and the out come is nothing but a failure. Try to make a mind map of your plan you need to accomplish in the very next day. Stay focused towards your goal and ambitions and also prioritize your things that are most important. The things that matters comes first, the rest of the things can wait and in some scenarios can be ignored too. It is always good to take care of your mind by giving yourself a break from all the hectic routine, pamper yourself, love yourself because at the end of the day it is you for yourself. Do not worry much - you managed to come here, you will manage to go further too - ALWAYS!
