hey vee ! i don't know much about the us or the uk but i'm from france and here the situation for students is getting so bad... basically, everyone is feeling burned out, there have been sooo many protests all over the country for WEEKS because the suicide rate among students is exploding, many are found dead in their dorms, 1 student our of 6 are dropping out of university, most of us don't even have any money because we lost the part-time jobs that we used to have in order to pay our studies and the government restricted access to the bursaries... yesterday I found myself filling a form to get free meals from an association for poor people who can't afford food, and I had to wait 4 hours in line to get my food because of how many students were in need of it as well... I am studying political sciences and this has always been my passion but honestly, I am so close to dropping out because I can't stand staring at my screen alone in my tiny flat anymore and "getting to bed early" or "seeing the bright side of things" isn't helping. the situation here is so bad nobody knows what to do because our government just doesn't care about us and is sacrificing a whole generation.
Dearest, je ne te connais pas mais je sais que la situation des étudiants et étudiantes est catastrophique en France. (Je suis aussi française et j'étudie pour devenir prof d'anglais ici) franchement ça me fait mal au cœur de me dire que les étudiants/es font la queue pour la soupe populaire. 😭 My dear, je t'envoie énormément de courage, d'amour et de soutien. Je n'ai même pas les mots, déjà que je galère à cause de la charge de travail, et le manque de contact social, et le concours qui approche, je n'imagine même pas devoir galérer pour manger 😭 (lol, quand les larmes coulent toute seule) j'imagine que tu es une fille donc ma soeur, je t'envoie encore une fois GRAVE du soutien (et si tu es un garçon, alors pareil mon frère, tu as tout mon soutien)
Hey... I'm so sorry. I can't possibly think of a solution to what you're going through. All I'll tell you is that for as long as you still have life within you, every good thing is possible. Keep on fighting and studying, take a break when things get too hard. I will be praying for you. things will get better. I am also a student, we're in this together. Stay strong my dear!!!
Bless you all that sounds awful but I know what it’s like to struggle and I have to pay full rent for my council place, I have no other income and I have ill health but I’ve applied for pips and now I’m appealing because I finally got my Mri results. Life is hard, my business has died since covid but I’m still trying to keep my head above water, I’m repeating my second year and I’m fighting to stay at university, don’t give up you’ll get there in the end bless you. My faith keeps me strong 🙏🏻
Everyone in these comments is struggling with burnout at the moment so it's like you read our minds by posting this video. I'm starting to write my 1st of 3 essays due this week and I'm just so tired. So to anyone reading this who's being absolutely flooded with assignments right now, GOOD LUCK!!! YOU'VE GOT THIS
@@MultiOzzyProductions I finished all of my essays on time through some miracle! But I don't know if I have any tips tbh. I just sit down, turn on some white noise, put my phone in another room so I don't get distracted, and just start writing. There's not much planning to my essays cuz I'm more of a go with the flow type of writer lol. Good luck with your work, I believe in you!!!
Really needed to see this today! Burnout is so hard right now when you can’t socialise and the boundaries of work and home have become a bit blurred, but I’m trying to stay optimistic that things are starting to improve here in the UK🥰🥰
I'm an A level student who also works 2 jobs at the moment. I have no clue if I am even moving to uni or if I will have to stay at home and travel in. My dad and I are being kicked out of our house, we still barely know about exams, and everything is just crumbling! I am really hoping things get better soon.
The whole way through this pandemic I have been trying to find even the tiniest positives in everything. And it has not been easy at all but there is no point wishing for something that we can’t have. We need to learn to make the most of what we’ve got. Saying that I really needed this video tonight because honestly one of the hardest things is that I am currently living and studying in a British time zone (also trying to rehearse a play but we do our best and we have found new ways of doing things) but I am working in a US time zone. So I am waking up everyday and doing college from 9am and then working at night and not getting to sleep until realistically around 1am and then waking up again for class. I am absolutely exhausted and I feel like I have no time for myself other than a Sunday but that has to be a day to catch up on assignments and prepare for auditions / self taping and stuff. Thanks Vee for the motivation to keep going! Xx
Everyone is feeling the exact same way atm! University is tiring and this pandemic is impacting everyone! Please keep taking care of yourselves. Your mental health comes first!! Before any degree!!
i have never been burned out or have experienced it before the online classes or pandemic happened, i was early in submissions and up to date with the topics being discussed. now having online classes and a stack of backlogs (ex. topics i haven't learned properly), it then hit me. during the morning i was okay, but in the afternoon i was rushing an assignment and i barely knew anything from the topic it was about, so i panicked and rushed it, managed to pass it on time by 30 seconds. after passing that i just, felt everything- the emotions i've been pushing away just to get by spilled everywhere. i became even more of a procrastinator after that, but i am getting better by being inspired by people, and you are one of them! really thank you for giving us these advices and videos to help us!
Hi Vee! I'm an older student (in my lates 50s) returning to Uni to work on a masters here in the UK. It's been decades since I've studied and your videos have helped me a lot, so thank you.
ahhh thank u sm, first year at Oxford has been honestly so much harder than I could've imagined online and feeling completely as if I'm alone in the struggle but we are all in this together and going to get through this - in spite of what they're throwing at us
First of all, CONGRATS for being at Oxford !!! (Not at Oxford but in a top class University here in France) and same, was not expecting THIS much work, but hey we are alive and juggling everything :)
This is the Sunday motivation I NEED!! I'm doing a masters right now and I only have 7 weeks left but it seems like there's a million things piling up :( Thank you for this!!
I have two 2000 word assignments due tomorrow. I haven't even started or read the questions. I am sick of it. 🥺😟 I want to drop all of this but on the other hand I am ashamed of my failure. I can't cope anymore.
I burned out last year and I failed four topics. Now, I transfer to another university, because I realized that I was not adapt to that university(poor online class arrangement). However, I have to admit my English is poor that I cannot keep up with the online class. Anyway, let's a fresh start at my current university🤪
Burnout is horrible. I had it in January after only taking 3 days of break over the Christmas period due to deadlines. I ended up stressed, and then got a bacterial throat infection which was then followed by a viral infection. It just wasn't worth physically burning out and it affected my ability to complete my deadlines. This video is so helpful. I was freaking out last Wednesday over a grammar lesson I had to teach the next day (TESOL and Japanese student here), but my motivation is still going somehow. Thank god this uni year is over in a few months. Zoom just isn't it.
I live in New Zealand, which gets good press for the COVID response, but every time university starts, we have another outbreak so we go back to our stay at home order which is so draining. The yo-yo of alert levels aren't fun and it has been making me feel burnt out. The government isn't even subsidising or recognising the struggles for Auckland students (the city where the outbreaks always happen), Auckland has 5 universities. I loved this video so much. You reminded me that there are people around the world who are feeling the same way as I am. Although, we aren't allowed to order pizza in a lockdown because that's not an essential service, so instead I lay in bed with Netflix. I'm never going to quit, but when I get my bachelor's degree, there's going to be a unique story and I'm going to show it off to my future grandchildren and say "look at what I got because I never gave up when a pandemic came at the same time of starting uni!" We are all going to be so proud of ourselves when we graduate and we are always going to look back and be grateful we never gave up. Let's keep moving guys. In New Zealand, we say "Be strong, be kind and unite against COVID-19" so let's all do that.
preach!! i’m currently attending my uni in the uk from canada and having classes from midnight to 10am in the morning each day wrecked my mental health and sleeping pattern for a good few months 😭 burnout is so so real so i’m so glad you’re speaking on this!!
2:22 yeah same here in Germany. There is always talk about pupils going to school but no one ever talks about students at university.🙄 Yes it is easier for us with online classes but we are also struggling (financially, being isolated, etc). 😒 And I was so happy to see that there was a video finally addressing this issue of forgetting about students (ARD I think) until the title implied that our only struggle is that the cafeterias are closed and we cannot go to parties anymore. I mean yes this is part of university life in my opinion but really not the problem here.
im really worried about the transition back to normal university and regular exams, i feel like i don't know how to sit an exam that isn't open book anymore makes me stressed just thinking about the high pressure exams again
I feel the same way. Im just doing assignments as fast as possible, not really learning. everything is so much right now. We are suppose to go back to uni in April ,i cant even imagine how i will pass
Oh God! I remember I was just about to start with my final exam, in the month of March, two papers only, and the Govt in India declared lockdown. It was so stressful and horrible! And me being a person with anxiety it was way more horrible. I could see many of my friends thriving during lockdown, or even learning more things and my anxiety was just not allowing me to do anything or learn anything new. I remember my family members saying that you wasted your pandemic doing nothing. It made me feel way more worse. And finally in the month of November 2020, we completed our papers. Even though I saw so people doing so much during lockdown, I still sometimes have a guilt feeling like why didn't I do anything. And then I came to a realization (after the lockdown was lifted) that I survived it. I SURVIVED the lockdown and it was the biggest achievement for me. I realized that everyone has their own journey and it's okay for not doing anything productive or not learning something new. The biggest thing for me is still surviving the surreal Pandamic, so be thankful and trust the process.
@@MultiOzzyProductions I'm well, thank you 😊 well, I've seen so far that getting off my phone till I finish the exams will be better cause I waste alot of time online. So I've disabled it for now so that I can see it as a prize when I see it
i just started my second semester of university, like two days ago. i’m already exhausted. i don’t know how i’ll make it till the rest of the semester, let alone the 4 years i have left. thinking about work makes me feel so overwhelmed (i am easily overwhelmed too) and on top of all that, im having trouble focusing in class and i get distracted so easily now. i don’t live in the uk or the us and the education system in my country sucks.
strangely enough I almost feel like it was easier when I was flooded with assignments and I was on the brink of a burnout. Now all I have to do is write a dissertation but it's become really hard to stay focused even for a couple of hours, I have practically no interaction with my uni and mustering up the courage to even start working is a huge task in and of itself. I find that motivation vanishes in no time if I even so much as to consider doing something not related to my studies; I have to force myself to always be in that "academic" mindset or else it gets really mentally draining to work
Yes! When I was overwhelmed with assignments I was productive. Now that I only have a final exam coming...I feel like I can’t concentrate or even have the motivation to try.
Definitely helping my motivation, I've been through so much with my classes. The storm in Texas didn't help at all! I have assignments due every time I look up.
hi vee! genuinely thank you for this video. I have never wanted to quit something more, Im at imperial and its already overwhelming and I actually enjoyed a levels but I have actually despised every second of uni and I feel like I can't do it anymore. this video makes me feel less alone, still want to drop out but less alone nonetheless
Oh I feel the exact same 😭 only 2 months in my LPC but definitely experiencing the burnout at the moment, postgraduate is just so much more difficult compared to undergraduate. Thank you for your videos🥺♥️
I’m not at Harvard or anything, but I loved your idea of positively framing things as doing them ‘...in a pandemic!’ Everything we’ve achieved in the last year we’ve had to work extra hard for 😊
I really needed to hear this, this made my whole week! This gave me so much motivation and I feel so much better about moving forward in online learning. Thank you so much 💗
Vee, I am not a student anymore, but it has been stressful for most university and high school students with the coronavirus pandemic because the students cannot meet their friends. They have to do all their exams and assignments online and they get much less help from their peers and professors because they cannot meet face to face, so they suffer more difficulties academically, emotionally, and financially.
I think some lecturer's need to stop forcing students to turn their camera on and putting them in breakout rooms, this causes quite a lot of anxiety for some students.
it's tough. i wish i could go study at the library or at a cafe, but that's not possible :/ haven't seen my friends in months and spend basically my whole day in front of my computer or my phone
I’m fighting through Ill health, stress and I’m not giving up, I’ve always felt I could do better but I do struggle with motivation sometimes and bury my head but so far I’ve won an appeal, I’m repeating my second year because I got behind with exams and coursework but I’m not giving up, onwards and upwards:). I left school with no GCSE’s and now I’m at university and I’m proud of that. My university (Hertfordshire) has been really good at helping and supporting me tbh. Take a day off, treat yourself, go for a walk, do exercise, have a takeaway and refresh your brain (I agree)
my university has added a few wellness days but the general consensus between professors and the university is that us students should be used to it by now so they don't understand why we're stressed which is complete crap
Omg yes my eyes are so dry!! Everything is online. My online classes and work. Last Friday I was at shop and my eyes got so dry (i bearly opened them and it looked like I was crying 🤦♀️) I needed to go to car to wait and then go back to shop 😐
Honestly I do agree with a lot of the things Vee has said but I would like to add something else. Ask for help! Keep asking. I know a lot of unis don't answer but it doesn't mean you can't reach out. Have whatsapp or facebook groups or whatever else with people at your uni or in your course. It does NOT have to be your friends. It can just be a group where people can complain or ask for help or things like that. Have zoom dinners together or with your family. This pandemic is severing connection between people and we have to force it! We have to be intentional in our social life and sometimes we have to actually schedule it. And I know this is not easy. I have anxiety and I have the hardest time to ask for help and talking to random people online. But I have reached out as much as I can and when I can. I have told my professors how I feel. I literally had a one-to-one with one of my teachers when I just told him everything that was stressing me out. I don't even know him that well. But once in class he said not to hesitate to reach out, I hesitated for almost two months. But he did listened to me. And he does email me every now and then to check up on me. It's not much but it's more than I've had. I went for calling my parents 1 times a week or every fortnight to almost every day. I talk to my mom like 4-5 times a day. I've never done that. I've always been very independent but I have to recognise it does help. You might feel alone in your room/flat. But you are not. There are people out there that we can talk with and try an connect. Sorry it's a bit long. But I really feel like it was important to say that. It is hard to remember but we don't have to go through life alone.
Guys!! We are doing this all, and still on the water. We are still in school, and doing all this. Keep your heads up, if we can get through this, we can achieve our biggest goals ever in the future
My school is going back on campus. But I want to stay home because I’m not vaccinated and Ik many others aren’t going to be vaccinated because it’s real restricted rn. However I am starting to feel burnout looking at screen. There’s no real motivation to going to classes. It’s hard to get work done in a noisy house and hard to separate the idea of my house= relaxation and school =study, I’ll probably transfer to a university in my city so I can go to class and come back home. Plus I started getting used to refund checks instead of oweing money and I ain’t going back to that 😭😭
....*Make sure u grab a cup of water* ........water in my language = *voda*......so instead of grabbing cup of water I grabbed vodka cuz not big fun of water .... but same effect I guess .....nice video btw.
hey vee ! i don't know much about the us or the uk but i'm from france and here the situation for students is getting so bad... basically, everyone is feeling burned out, there have been sooo many protests all over the country for WEEKS because the suicide rate among students is exploding, many are found dead in their dorms, 1 student our of 6 are dropping out of university, most of us don't even have any money because we lost the part-time jobs that we used to have in order to pay our studies and the government restricted access to the bursaries... yesterday I found myself filling a form to get free meals from an association for poor people who can't afford food, and I had to wait 4 hours in line to get my food because of how many students were in need of it as well... I am studying political sciences and this has always been my passion but honestly, I am so close to dropping out because I can't stand staring at my screen alone in my tiny flat anymore and "getting to bed early" or "seeing the bright side of things" isn't helping. the situation here is so bad nobody knows what to do because our government just doesn't care about us and is sacrificing a whole generation.

Such a relatable video, it helps knowing it's not only me feeling like this :) thank you!
hi vee! genuinely thank you for this video. I have never wanted to quit something more, Im at imperial and its already overwhelming and I actually enjoyed a levels but I have actually despised every second of uni and I feel like I can't do it anymore. this video makes me feel less alone, still want to drop out but less alone nonetheless
I joined this family less then a week and am all ready watching all of your videos.you're amazing❤️❤️
I'm in my third year and i've almost finished!!!
I just gotta make my graduation film now and submit my dissertation
how i needed this video- always love your videos Vee 🤍
Oh I feel the exact same 😭 only 2 months in my LPC but definitely experiencing the burnout at the moment, postgraduate is just so much more difficult compared to undergraduate.
Thank you for your videos🥺♥️
I AM HAVING BURNOUT ENERGY SO SO MUCH nowadays, this is the perfect timing!!! xx
"YOU CANNOT GIVE YOUR BEST, UNLESS YOU ARE AT YOUR BEST" WOW.
Same!!
@@PhoebeJones sending love, support and care sister ❤
I was waiting for this videooo!!
Edit: I hope that you're having a nice day ❤️
I’m not at Harvard or anything, but I loved your idea of positively framing things as doing them ‘...in a pandemic!’ Everything we’ve achieved in the last year we’ve had to work extra hard for 😊
Heya Vee! Just wanted to say thank you. Your videos have helped me through some rough times, and I am so glad you are back!
I really needed to hear this, this made my whole week! This gave me so much motivation and I feel so much better about moving forward in online learning. Thank you so much 💗
Vee, I am not a student anymore, but it has been stressful for most university and high school students with the coronavirus pandemic because the students cannot meet their friends. They have to do all their exams and assignments online and they get much less help from their peers and professors because they cannot meet face to face, so they suffer more difficulties academically, emotionally, and financially.
This video literally came at the perfect time🥲
You just keep glowing every time 🙆🏿♀️I'm lovin it 💕
Yes. I needed this today. Thank you
literally here to procrastinate my uni work oop xx thanks vee
Omg same I'm so behind in my uni work
I'm watching this as a lecturer to learn how I can best support my students in this time. Thanks for sharing, Vee!
I think some lecturer's need to stop forcing students to turn their camera on and putting them in breakout rooms, this causes quite a lot of anxiety for some students.
GOD BLESS YOU! I NEEDED THIS 😫
ILY QUEEN 😚💋
it's tough. i wish i could go study at the library or at a cafe, but that's not possible :/ haven't seen my friends in months and spend basically my whole day in front of my computer or my phone
thank you for this video, it was much needed. i will try my best to pass this semester and i'll come here to say that i made it.
Thank you
This has helped me sooo much.
same, I'm having a lot of anxiety rn I have a project to present on tuesday and I only have tomorrow to finish it, I'm so tired man
how did it go?
@@ariadnaalvarado1409 I finished everything and it actually went really well!
thanks for asking :)
This video came at the perfect time! So exhausted of online uni! You’re so right tho gotta keep positive and we can do this 💪😭😂
I haven’t watched the video yet but honestly the title speaks to my soul

Thanks Vee!!! This video is really helpful😍
I’m fighting through Ill health, stress and I’m not giving up, I’ve always felt I could do better but I do struggle with motivation sometimes and bury my head but so far I’ve won an appeal, I’m repeating my second year because I got behind with exams and coursework but I’m not giving up, onwards and upwards:). I left school with no GCSE’s and now I’m at university and I’m proud of that. My university (Hertfordshire) has been really good at helping and supporting me tbh. Take a day off, treat yourself, go for a walk, do exercise, have a takeaway and refresh your brain (I agree)
my university has added a few wellness days but the general consensus between professors and the university is that us students should be used to it by now so they don't understand why we're stressed which is complete crap
This is helpful sis, love you💘
i really needed this😭😭😭😭
Thank God cuz here’s me almost crying at my desk because of law school😭
God keeps me going 🙏🏻 it’s been a hard few years but I’m not giving up
Thank you so much Vee! Good luck to you
Yessssss late night uploads!
Omg yes my eyes are so dry!! Everything is online. My online classes and work. Last Friday I was at shop and my eyes got so dry (i bearly opened them and it looked like I was crying 🤦♀️) I needed to go to car to wait and then go back to shop 😐
Honestly I do agree with a lot of the things Vee has said but I would like to add something else.
Ask for help! Keep asking. I know a lot of unis don't answer but it doesn't mean you can't reach out. Have whatsapp or facebook groups or whatever else with people at your uni or in your course. It does NOT have to be your friends. It can just be a group where people can complain or ask for help or things like that. Have zoom dinners together or with your family. This pandemic is severing connection between people and we have to force it! We have to be intentional in our social life and sometimes we have to actually schedule it.
And I know this is not easy. I have anxiety and I have the hardest time to ask for help and talking to random people online. But I have reached out as much as I can and when I can. I have told my professors how I feel. I literally had a one-to-one with one of my teachers when I just told him everything that was stressing me out. I don't even know him that well. But once in class he said not to hesitate to reach out, I hesitated for almost two months. But he did listened to me. And he does email me every now and then to check up on me. It's not much but it's more than I've had.
I went for calling my parents 1 times a week or every fortnight to almost every day. I talk to my mom like 4-5 times a day. I've never done that. I've always been very independent but I have to recognise it does help.
You might feel alone in your room/flat. But you are not. There are people out there that we can talk with and try an connect.
Sorry it's a bit long. But I really feel like it was important to say that. It is hard to remember but we don't have to go through life alone.
This is such a helpful mindset ☺️
Here I am, signing myself up for essay crisis by watching this instead of writing the six page literature review that's due in 4 hours lmao
Guys!! We are doing this all, and still on the water. We are still in school, and doing all this. Keep your heads up, if we can get through this, we can achieve our biggest goals ever in the future
I need this rn😭I’ll have finished my degree in just a few more months but it’s so hard to keep on going at the moment
im in the exact same boat
You can do it! I believe in you
I feel your pain, I’ve got so much to do too
omg..... that title I couldn't relate more ...
The pick me up I needed because my imposter syndrome has been kicking in
Just scrolling through the comments makes me feel seen and better
My school is going back on campus. But I want to stay home because I’m not vaccinated and Ik many others aren’t going to be vaccinated because it’s real restricted rn. However I am starting to feel burnout looking at screen. There’s no real motivation to going to classes. It’s hard to get work done in a noisy house and hard to separate the idea of my house= relaxation and school =study, I’ll probably transfer to a university in my city so I can go to class and come back home. Plus I started getting used to refund checks instead of oweing money and I ain’t going back to that 😭😭
thank you for this x
I didn't need the notification bell 😭
The stinging of eyes are real. I look at my laptop for 2 hours doing nothing and I already want to go back to sleep.
Always 👏🏿 at 👏🏿 the 👏🏿 right 👏🏿 time
Post notification squad!
this came in due time oh my god 🙌🏾
thank you for this !
Perfect timing.
😍😍😍😍😍My role model🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
My fiancée just died and it can’t even think about doing assignments or going to class. I’m just gonna get I-grades so I don’t fail this semester
You’re so strong for continuing with your studying in such hard times! I believe you will pass!
Sending love and prayers ❤ sorry for your loss
Talk to you UNI, tell then what happened. Do not push yourself on grades. I struggled with a death of a friend, burned out and failed the year.
im so sorry. you can get through this
Praying for you🌈✨
Our pandemic-aversary 😭😂
Omg, this is for me
Haii
