I'm feeling really burnt out at school lately, but I don't want to take time off because I'm worried it will reflect poorly on me. How can I prioritize my mental health without jeopardizing my academic career? I've been working really hard for the past few months, and I'm starting to feel like I'm reaching my breaking point. I know that taking a break would be beneficial for my mental health, but I'm worried that my professors and colleagues will see it as a sign of weakness or a lack of dedication.

I totally get it - burnout is no joke. Something that's helped me in the past is finding a creative outlet outside of school. Whether it's painting, writing, or playing music, having a way to unwind and express myself has really helped me combat burnout and stay motivated.
