I'll just say, from a psychology standpoint, youtube/videogames aren't that helpful for mental health breaks (at least in larger quantities). Cuz mindless screens and such tend to just be easy distractions from processing emotions and such. Honestly taking a break from screens for several hours can help a lot, and doing stuff like reading/journalling/going for a walk/playing with pets can be more restorative, and just taking time to sit and process things
And ofc sleep is great
Hi bored in spanish, I'm Will!
Watch your profanity (but also *hugs*
Maybe eat breakfast tmrw then xD
I'm in Developmental Psychology and I'm also bored lol
Yep AGREED. I cannot wait for spring break but it's still a month away...
Yep I don't miss that from HS xD Or my parents coming in my room and being like "Hmm why are you on the shard or playing video games when you have homework due"
@DAVEY Just a heads up, the Entertainment Discussion subforum is more for discussing music and other media, whereas stuff like singing lyrics is better off in the Forum Games subforum. (So I have moved it there)
My mom can't see my grades so I have nothing stopping me but my own self control xD The dangers of college lol. I've only gone to 5 microbiology lectures so far this semester cuz attendance isn't required lol (and I have to skip or leave early if I wanna eat lunch on Wednesdays)
Skipping is valid, tho second floor would hurt, so don't do that
The urge to skip my 8 am class was soooooo strong this morning, but it's my Chem class, and that's the one I have to go to the most, and has graded attendance
Drink some water!
Nah I'm better about it now, since I started lifting. But I've been there before, not fun. When I had mono I had to get IV fluids cuz I was so dehydrated
TPBM has been to the ER
Yep agreed And one thing I've learned with mental health struggles is that once you get through them, you're then better equipped to help others with the same problem. I've had 3 instances where I've talked someone out of killing themselves, and I wouldn't have been able to do so nearly as well if I hadn't gone through the same thing, and knew how they felt. So I think that God does use trials to strengthen our faith, but also so that we can be equipped to help others later on
Glad you're still with us
I have a C in microbiology, tho not for long xD I'll get to replace my lowest exam grade with the optional final exam, which should fix it
Normally they're good tho I might end up with a B in Chem II tho
Gonna be annoying tho... Cuz of my scholarship, if I have a C in a class halfway thru the semester, I get to have a meeting with an advisor and discuss improvement strategies
