What a year to be a student.  But look at you making it through - one day at a time.  I've often compared the challenges of this year to how overwhelmed & stressed I felt during exams at Western.  It all just feels like so much (*too much, even*) all at once.  What always helped me tread through was seeing the finish line - seeing myself hand in that last paper, that last exam & picturing how relieved I would feel after that last hard thing.  Try to keep seeing the light at the end of your challenging academic tunnel.  And in the mean time, drink lots of water, REST, go for a walk, connect with people who understand your struggles & take deep breaths & breaks.  There IS another side to this that will feel lighter - nothing will feel this hard.  Keep going, keep dreaming & take good care of YOU.
