Get in contact with student support services, most universities have some sort of mental health “crisis” support system. (Crisis between quotes because what they can handle varies wildly). They can not only help you with your burnout, but also get in contact with your prof and let them know. You could (likelihood depends on the university) get a second chance at a later date without having to retake the full course.
Unfortunately, burnout and similar health issues have skyrocketed between university students since covid, the universities try to keep up, but… funding processes suck, so it really depends on the state/county/specific university.
All the best!
Its not that severe I don't think, though it's good to know that's an option, I think I just need to do what I can on this final and move on for now, I already get an extra hour for my disability, but I would love nothing more than to just take the test and be able to not think for like a week or more, ugh, and not look at converging functions
It could get pretty bad pretty fast if you are not careful. Been in the situation a couple of times, thinking "meh. I will push through it". And then it got ugly. Please take care of yourself and take all the help you can get.
Yeah that's true, I think I need to get better about actually taking breaks every single hour instead of pushing on.
Whats not helping is I'm no longer working and bills are coming hard and fast, so I'm actively trying to think up a way to make money while doing all this
