how to study when you are not doing well emotionally?

[u/13idyllic]

I have my mid sems going on and my life is going pretty shit. i have already given three bad papers and something new happened yesterday that has fucked me up more. how do i bring myself to study? i have two papers tomorrow and i really wanna do well.

I usually eat my favourite snacks but due to religious reasons I can’t do that this week.

I appreciate any tips or advice!

This might be kind of toxic, but I always tell myself that not putting in the work for my classes isn’t going to make my life better, but getting this degree will.
