Any other non-trad going through this?
I'm fine usually, but lately i've been struggling in one of my classes, and the constant studying for it has taken a toll. The feeling that all this studying has no rewards (my grades have not improved) doesn't help. Between work and class and studying, I barely have time for me. And it's taking a huge toll on my relationship too. I get incredibly depressed when I don't have time to work out, cook, etc.
I've had this same professor and TA for two semesters now, and the depression has just gotten so much worse. I know i'm not the only one, there are others in the class that just don't even want to get out of bed in the morning. But I honestly have no time to worry about being down about this stuff. It doesn't help to feel the constant guilt about work if I need to take a day off to study, or the constant personal guilt I feel when I am at work. It's especially hard, bc usually when i work so hard for something, I'm able to accomplish it.
How does everyone else get through it?
