new studyblrs!!
hello! so I’ve been kinda absent on here for a while so I’d love to follow some new studyblrs to jazz up my feed a bit more! please like/reblog this so I can check your blog out - also feel free to @ me in any intro posts (or tag #muststudy)! :)
me: i’m so motivated. i’m gonna do this. i will achieve everything
me, a second later: you know my bed is actually just…. better
honestly my number one piece of advice for students is to like. be pragmatic about studying. because lbr doing your headings in perfect calligraphy with a £5 brush pen isn’t going to improve your grades. re-writing and re-writing your notes until they’re instagram-worthy isn’t going to help you retain the information. planning in a £30 bullet journal which you’ll then feel pressured into making really aesthetic spreads for when a £5 planner would do the same job isn’t going to make you a better student. yes, 100% take pride in your notes and by all means treat yourself to nice stationery every now and again but pls don’t waste your time and money trying to reach some unattainable studyblr goals.

“The best way to create the future is to create it.” -Abraham Lincoln – Exciting planning for the future today by writing graduate school applications! A little nerve-wracking but also wonderful; sometimes it is nice to clearly want something so badly that it makes you worry!
Also SO COZY to be inside when it is awfully rainy and windy outside!!!! 10/100 days of productivity
Part 6 of my Studyblr University Orientation Week.
I see a lot of people on studyblr talking about dealing with stress and anxiety over grades and perfectionism, but not a lot of discussion of being mentally ill and in university/college. So if you’re looking for stress reduction stuff, this post is not for you. This is for my mentally ill peeps.
I just want to preface this with a little disclaimer. This is based on my own experience. I have depression, anxiety, ADD and OCD. I don’t know everything. I still have a lot of trouble coping, particularly with the last two as they were only recently diagnosed. This is just meant to be a few useful tips that might help a little bit.
Go see a therapist. Even if you think you’re doing okay, it’s still good to have that support system there if you need it. Your therapist can also give you coping mechanisms that are tailored to your specific needs. They may also suggest you go on medication or refer you to a doctor who can prescribe it.
If you are taking medication, set a reminder on your phone so that you take it at the same time every day.
Set about sixteen alarms in the morning, starting half an hour before you want to wake up and spread about five to ten minutes apart. If you’re anything like me and have a lot of trouble getting to sleep, you probably have a lot of trouble getting up in the morning. This technique is a lifesaver. Also change up the alarm ~once a month. I find that my body gets used to it after a while and I just sleep right through it.
Register with your school’s disability services. Yes, your mental illness is a disability. They’ll be able to help with accommodations (this could be anything from extra time on exams to extensions on your assignments).
If you think that you might be handing in a paper late because depression is kicking your ass, message your professor at least a week in advance. If you tell them two days before, they’re not going to care. And if you end up not needing the extension, that’s okay. It’s better for it to be there if you need it.
Headphones. Everywhere. People are stupid and loud and it’s overwhelming as fuck. Wear them right up until the prof starts lecturing. Do NOT wear them during the lecture though, your prof will hate you - though you may be able to discuss it with your prof the first week. idk, maybe you have cool profs who get it.
Make a friend in your class that you can get notes from in case you can’t get out of bed. I mean this is good for anyone in case of illness in general, but yeah. Depression. Woohoo.
It’s okay if you need to take a lighter course load because of your mental health. Loads of people do it.
Related: It’s okay if you take 5+ years to complete your degree. You’ll get there.
AD(H)D friends who stim: That’s super great and you totally should. But please do not leg bounce when you’re at a desk that has all the chairs connected to it. You will shake everybody’s seat and distract them. I get the urge to leg bounce (fuck, I’m leg bouncing rn) but please try a different stim if you could. Or bounce gently. Just no earthquakes (no joke, I literally thought it was an earthquake once and was super confused why no one else was panicking. i learned nothing that day, I was so distracted).
Fidget toys are the best things ever and you can use them in lecture (provided they don’t make too much noise because your prof might yell at you for that).
Bathrooms are your new best friend for panic attacks. Hide in a stall and take a few deep breaths to calm down. There’s a lot less noise there and you’re less likely to be disturbed than if you go to a stairwell.
Breathe in for 5, hold for 5, out for 7.
5-4-3-2-1: Find five things in the room that are blue. Four things that are yellow. Three that are pink. Two that are purple. One that is green. You can substitute this with any colours you like. You can also do ones like “think of five things that start with f (and so on)” or “five tv shows that you like, four books, etc.” if you’re somewhere without a lot of colours (or in your handy bathroom stall). Repeat with new criteria or new answers until calm.
If you’ve been crying and don’t want people to know: grab some paper towels, run some cold water on them. Wipe your eyes with them. Pat your cheeks with them. It makes less of a mess than splashing your face will and I find that it helps me a lot more.
Schedule the shit out of your life. You won’t forget important meetings or things like eating dinner (whoops).
Make sure that you give yourself plenty of breaks during the day. Gotta conserve that energy, yo.
Find out when the library’s quietest and grab your books then. Same deal with the bookstore at the beginning of the year and buying your books. Please, the bookstore is scary when it’s busy. Save yourself.
Frozen dinners are cheap, easy to make, and require next to no energy. Same with cereal, ramen, and most pasta. And egg sandwiches (two eggs, hot sauce, and mayonnaise. Best thing ever.).
Great questions to ask the people who sit next to you in class: What’s your name (preface this with “Hi, I’m *blank*”)? What are you studying? Where are you from? How are you liking the class?
If you’re having trouble getting started, try for ten minutes. You may find that it’s easy to keep going after that. Or maybe you’ll need to stop but at least you’ll have gotten ten minutes of work in.
You’re doing great. This is a really hard thing that you’re doing right now, but you’ve got it.
Workload
- start writing your notes from day 1.
- use your frees.
- ask a teacher if you don’t understand something (I know this seems obvious but don’t be afraid).
- use the library/silent study spaces.
- your notes don’t have to be studyblr perfect, it’s the content that counts.
- don’t be afraid to take a day / night off, when you’re stressed.
- USE YOUR FREES.
- re-sit exams that you don’t achieve your desired grade on (if your teacher offers it).
- attend support sessions, they’re worth it.
- “if it’s not done by midnight, it’s not worth doing.”
- if you’re finding it difficult to get motivated, sometimes listening to some music or having your favourite TV programme on in the background, is just what you need to get you going.
Organisation
- if your 6th form/college doesn’t make you start at a certain time, make your own timetable (e.g go in at 8-4, everyday).
- take time out every Sunday night to organise all your folders.
- make checklists, they help with the satisfaction.
- if you don’t get given one, a planner is essential.
- always write down homework because when you tell yourself you’ll remember it, you won’t.
- make sure you’re getting enough sleep.
- turn your phone off, when revising or get forest.
Social
- create a class/table group chat, where you can chat and ask questions when you get stuck.
- join extracurricular groups (it doesn’t always have to be stressful).
- do some volunteering or something for the community (looks good on ucas/CV and makes you feel good).
- take every opportunity you get! (I know, it’s cliche, but I’ve done some amazing things because of college).
me, in school: oooh I will get so much stuff done after school! All my homework, and projects, and also learn ahead, and me, after school: good night
apply for jobs you’re not qualified for! audit upper-level classes! get drunk with your TAs! see that poster advertising that lecture series? go there take notes and ask questions! thank the presenter for talking about this topic you love! if the class is full before you register, email the professor and ask if they can squeeze you in! RAISE YOUR HAND! tell the disability accomodation office to do their goddamn job! ask for help! file complaints! go to class in your pajamas and destroy the reading! you got this! you KNOW you got this! be arrogant enough to learn EVERYTHING! take your meds! punch a velociraptor in the dick! fear is useless and temporary! glory is forever! shed your skin and erupt angel wings! help out! spread your sun!
i had a really good morning! you deserve a really good morning! kill anyone who says you don’t and build a throne from their bones!
Oddly inspiring
I wish all my cells would undergo apoptosis at the same time
