Balancing work and study
Being a full-time student is already demanding, but adding work on top of that can feel overwhelming. I juggle classes, studying, and work hours, and sometimes it feels like I’m never really off the clock.
There are moments where I’m proud of the independence and resilience it builds. But there are also times when exhaustion creeps in, and I wonder how sustainable it is to keep pushing myself at this pace.
For those of you working while studying, how do you find balance? Do you ever feel like one side of your life takes too much from the other?

Yes.
I've been there and it's hard.
It can be exhausting, overwt, downright too much, but what helped me, was carving g time in my day for me, even if it were only half an hour to do something I loved. And reminding myself daily, what the sacrifices were for 💜💕

That’s such a solid approach 💜 I try to sneak in my own little indulgences too, sometimes it’s a quick nap, a coffee break with a show, or just zoning out for a few minutes. Feels almost naughty but oh so necessary!
@LanaAfterDark
Defo necessary, even more fun when it's guilt free 😁
