 University can be challenging, but it doesn't have to be impossible. Here are some students hopes to keep you going through your time at uni. When I'm feeling overwhelmed, I write everything down on paper. What this does is it clears my head so that I have space to think about the important things and actually have the energy to study. I find that having social support is so important. Find people around you who can relate to your difficulties, such as other students. From my own experience, I found that study makes it great because often we've struggled with the same things, so I never feel like I'm in it alone. Days at university can often be long and stressful, so it's important to reward yourself after a hard day's work. Find something that you enjoy, have some fun in your day, whether it be watching your favourite TV series, going fishing, or even watching your favourite esports. One thing I found helpful was taking a walk around campus in the first couple of weeks and just finding a nice spot to go to by myself. Because as much as you love your mates, sometimes you need to get away and just have that spot to go, chill out and breathe. I know there's a lot of new experience at the university, but don't hesitate to talk to the people around you. You never know, the solution to your problem may be just sitting next to you. I think when we're feeling under pressure, we can forget about the important things, such as eating, sleeping, and even exercising. So I think it's really important to maintain a healthy routine during the semester, especially during exam times when things can get stressful.
