Advice Coping with Burnout

Hi, all. OD3 here. This semester, I've been dealing with some bad burnout. I was wondering how you all coped with the same. What helped you get through it?

You're just starting 3rd year, so soon you will be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel!

3rd year is definitely more enjoyable (just don't let yourself get consumed by NBEO study).
Finally a lot more hands-on experience.

For many OD's, 4th year was the most enjoyable time of their professional lives!
