That must be so stressful!! Have you started studying?
assistant
Question
Yes, I've been studying for weeks now. But some of my professors give the oddest quizzes that seem to not match anything we've worked on! (2)

I remember when i was in school, finals were always so stressful. I used to make sure that i took breaks, it really helped me keep my head on straight.
assistant
Self-disclosure
yeah, I can do that at times. But I also work part-time while I'm in school. I guess I should have planned ahead and taken this week off. (3)

You can even find time to relax without taking a lot of time off, do you have any exercise you like doing?
assistant
Question
not really. I had Covid last month and my dr told me not to do anything more than walking for 3 months while my lungs and body recover. So that's hard (4)

Oh wow, i'm so sorry to hear that! How are you feeling now?
assistant
Question
I'm ok. But extremely tired. The dr said the fatigue could take months to go away. So it's a struggle with work and school. (5)

Have you tried meditating or mindfulness? When i broke my leg and couldn't exercise, it really helped me relax. I'm sure! I'm very impressed that you are still wroking and in school despite being sick. You should feel proud of yourself

I have not. I pray a lot and that does help. Honestly it's the only relief I've gotten lately. I have three more finals and a paper due by Friday.

Praying is helpful! Mindfulness goes very hand in hand with it, if you look online, there are tons of free midnfulness classes and guides. I think it could really help you especially before a test.

Providing Suggestions
I will look into it. I had to go back to work before I was ready because I was out for 3 weeks with Covid. And school is mostly all online so at least I don't have to go in (7)

That's great! Family is the best medicine for being sick and stressed.

That is very true! I would have been so scared had my mom not been here when I had covid.(9)

Do you get to talk to your parents often?
assistant
Question
Yes, I still live at home :) So pretty much every day! If I can just get through this week I'll be able to rest a lot better I think. (10)
