Burnt out at 16
I (16F) am already burnt out.
Been the perfect student for all these years, and now I can’t do it anymore.
I am tired all the time. I live far and have to take a train every day twice a day. Hours of just traveling from a city to another just to go to a shitty high school where the teachers don’t meet my needs.
I spend 12h a day outside of my house, through buses and school.
I get home and all I wanna do is sleep.
I have no time to study.
I consider myself lucky when I manage to sleep 6h.
I can’t do this anymore. I have no time for anything I like.
The weekend never feels like a rest, I try to study what I can for the other days when I won’t have time to.
But every time I get home I can’t do anything. I just wanna stay on my phone in my bed hugging my plushies. I can’t do this anymore. I would prefer being dead. It can’t be more exhausting than this.
Please help me, I don’t know what to do, my grades are dropping and I’m close to failing. What can I do to improve my mental health?
