so, let me ask abo about this because this is out of my expertise! :3

What should I do about struggling with online classes?

what about it particularly are you struggling with?

with any online classes, i would create a schedule with corresponding alarms for when you can do each class. i like to use time blocks of 30 minutes in excel and color code them. i schedule everything, including breaks, work, and sleep.

for me, the colors helped me memorize my schedule arrangement and the alarms helped me stay on track.

here’s an example i pulled off of google:


let me know if this helps.

what should i do when everything i eat or drink makes me feel nauseous or sick but the doctors say everything's fine? lol

my friend had this issue, and she kept going to the ER until they finally found a hole in her stomach that caused her stomach acid to interfere with her digestive system.

if you don’t experience this with all foods, i recommend keeping a food journal to keep track of how each food/drink affects your tummy. see if you can make a diet based on what doesn’t irritate your stomach.

either way, doctors are not infallible. your health can’t be replaced. i would also keep a journal( maybe even the same journal as the food one) of your symptoms, complete with times and a list of what is happening, and speak to your doctor again or get a second opinion. also, you may be able to tie your symptoms to certain behaviors or patterns.

same advice as above :3

how can i sleep better at night ?

what’s your current sleeping schedule like?

i’ve read before that sometimes to inform your body that it’s time to go to sleep and decompress, you have to have a night ritual to remind your body to relax.

i noticed while my biorhythms were off, i used to require a completely dark room and mood music, like rain or ocean sounds playing at night. i needed this for a year before my body started fully relaxing enough to sleep again.

i’m curious to know about your sleeping routines. what do you feel like you need for a better nights sleep?

Dear Metal, how can I keep myself awake in the morning without risking a caffeine overdose?

Dear Metal, how can I keep myself awake in the morning without risking a caffeine overdose?

let’s take a look at your schedule and diet. i believe most changes can be as simple as tweaking either one of these things. i quit drinking coffee in late august, and while i miss the flavor, i haven’t looked back.

anyway, my first suggestion would be to trade in caffeine for natural sugars from fruit. it could give you the extra boost you’ve been needing in the morning. (:
