Having a lot to handle

Stress

Anxiety

Relationship Issues

I'm a final year student and I'm going through placements. Along with that I have a lot of college assignments, tests, exams etc and I'm falling behind. I'm trying to cope with that but by the end of everyday I feel nothing but hopeless. I also have a boyfriend and we've been dating for 6-7 momths. He is really supportive and helps me out with stuff like studying, or making plans on how to tackle any situation but since I have strict parents I'm not allowed to meet him much and that is creating some problems. I feel like things are breaking apart. And with placements right around the corner I don't know what to do. I can't talk about this yo my friends since they know that he really loves me and since I'm not much of an expressive person, they think I'm just being lazy and not meeting him. They say I have to grow up, be more mature and start handling things. But I can't seem to figure out how. I don't know how to handle these things all at once.

Hey! Thanks for reaching out. I am sure it must be getting difficult for you to handle all of these things. There is surely a lot on your plate right now, and the placement pressure is adding a cherry on the top. See, i understand that it’s a lot. But I think rather than fretting over it why don’t you make an action plan and a priority wise list for yourself. Start working on the solution. Let’s suppose there are assignments and submission, you can take help from youtube for your interview prep and give a little extra time in the night to your assignment. We all have experienced a little extra dark circle by the end of the year. Let’s try to take it as challenge and trust me you will be able to do it with grace. Students have superpowers. Coming to the point of your relationship, if your partner loves you and he has been supportive throughout, he will still understand that it’s a phase of life. Things will be alright. It’s not necessary to put in extra efforts if it’s stressing you out because he would understand. Do talk to him about how you feel and make sure he knows that you love him. It’s just that you can’t devote much time to it right now. Do NOT listen to others, you are handling everything pretty well. You are not suppose to follow someone’s way of handling a relationship, you and your partner have your own chemistry and do what you like. Relationship should be space where you feel safe not stressed.

Thankyou for the advice. I would definitely try it. I just had another question. Like I mentioned i have strict parents and I'm not allowed to go out much which is why j can't meet him. We only meet 2-3 times a month. This had been a major issue in the past few weeks. Can you please suggest some advice for this?

Talk to him in this regard, try to stay in touch via text or calls. At last communication is important.

Thankyou. I'll keep that in mind. This really helped.
