I’m feeling overwhelmed about my graduation.

I’m currently juggling a full-time university course alongside a full-time job, and it’s been overwhelming. For over a month, I’ve been putting in 30-40 hours a week, and the lack of adequate sleep is starting to take a toll on my mental health. Yesterday, I attempted to get to work […]
