Feeling tired all the time? Feeling fatigued even though you got eight hours of sleep the night before? Feeling stressed 24/7? You may be suffering from College Student Syndrome (CSS).
Symptoms may include (but are not limited to)....
1. Feeling tired all the time
It doesn't matter if you got two hours of sleep or 20 hours of sleep. You will always feel tired. No amount of caffeine will fix the tired feeling. When you are tired, feelings of being slap-happy may occur. When experiencing slap-happiness you can be a very interesting person to be around. Things that come out of your mouth make little to no sense but you don't really care.
2. Feeling stressed 24/7
You've always got something to stress about. Whether it's a paper that's due, vocab that needs to be memorized or a test that needs to be studied for, if it's not one thing, it's another. Having a job or being involved in clubs or extracurriculars will make you forget what sanity looks like.
3. Watching Netflix instead of doing Homework
Because why do homework when you could binge watch an entire season of Gilmore Girls or The Office instead? Oh! Anyone up for a season of Friends or Parks and Recreation? We all know that watching Netflix is the better option anyway.
4. Hanging out with friends instead of doing Homework
Because playing Pool or Apples to Apples is better than homework any day. In fact, being in the presence of your friends socializing is better than homework any day (for those social people). I mean you could theoretically do homework and hang out, but that's not that fun, now is it?
5. Doing ANYTHING except your Homework
Because literally anything in the world sounds more appealing than sitting down and writing that six page research paper you've already put off for way too long.
6. Wanting to go out and do things but also realizing you're broke.
Want to go to the movies? Sadly it costs $12. Want to go out to eat? Sure, if this place has a dollar menu! It is the eternal struggle of college students. Especially when you have to spend $500 on textbooks alone.
Cure?
Wait four years, graduate college, go into the real world and realize you're facing a whole new set of problems.
