We're almost to that point in the semester where papers and finals and group projects are going to start becoming overwhelming. It's important to remember to take care of yourself so your mental health doesn't suffer during this trying time! Maybe you don't have finals to worry about, but you're just stressed about the fact that Donald Trump is still in office. Either way, you deserve to "treat yo self." Here are some simple ways to make yourself feel like a Kween:

1. Kick back and relax.

Yesss girl, you deserve it. Take a load off, sit in your favorite chair and let your hair down.

2. Fake it 'til you make it.

Feeling dead inside? Wondering how you got yourself into this situation? Filled with regret? Put on a smile! You might believe it, eventually.

3. Drink a nightcap.

Water or wine, I don't judge. A fun idea if you want to get really fucked up: click HERE to play the Trump State of the Union Address drinking game.

4. Tell someone how you really feel.

Sometimes you just need to tell the person that you hate that their skin looks like leather, their hair is bad and they should buy a one-way ticket to Mexico.

5. Go for a drive.

Vroom vroom! Windows down, hair back, music up. Drive away from your problems. (They'll still be there when you get back, though.)

6. Log out of everything.

Yes, even Twitter. Sometimes you just need a break from everyone around you -- they might want a break from you, too.

7. Go to the gym.

The tighter your shorts, the better. Get down, get sweaty, and show everyone else how sexy you are, girl.

8. Take a bath.

Ahhh...there's nothing like the feeling of warm bathwater creeping into the spaces between belly rolls.

9. Read a book.

It's important to be educated: it's scary how many people these days lack the basic knowledge of how to be a good person. A book might be able to teach you that stuff, but hopefully you know it already.

10. Get dolled up.

Look good, feel good, am I right, ladies?

11. Sleep.

Everyone likes you better when you're unconscious.

12. Order some comfort food.

Pizza is the ultimate choice here. Some people like to eat it crust-first: they're the ones you need to keep an eye on.

13. Cry.

Same, small infant in blue. Same.

14. Go online shopping.

My life is in shambles and I'm destroying the morale of people worldwide, so let me just log onto Victoria's Secret real quick. A cute new thong may be the solution to all my problems.

15. Have a dance party for one.

YAS KWEEN.

16. Give yourself a pep talk.

I imagine an ideal conversation would go something like this:

"Don't forget how great you are."

"No, you're great. You're the best."

"I am the best! Thank you for noticing."

"Wow, you've got great hands. Not small at all."

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

No Matter How Challenging School Gets, You Have To Put Your Health First — A Degree Won't Mean Anything If You're Dead

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.

Obsessive Thoughts Keep My Brain Stuck On A Loop And Me Stuck On My Couch

Sometimes my brain just starts turning on an idea and it doesn't want to stop.

I don't know if it is related to my anxiety, perfectionism or depression. I don't know why it happens. It's frustrating, it's painful and it stops me from functioning.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.
