Academic stress is a common problem at post graduate level. Unfortunately, lockdown has increases stress levels.

For students, it is stress relieving to visit the campus and talk with other students.

The COVID-19 has changed the world in many ways including:

• How we interact with people
• Our traveling routines
• In-person studies
• Communication with professors and colleagues

These are just a few changes for students. Depending on your location, you may be having even more tough time.

In these difficult times, it is easy to lose your focus. Thanks to one of my students who asked recently,

“How to overcome academic stress that could affect my writing or focus?”

How Post Graduate Students Can Manage?

Before I go any further, I would suggest you to watch mental health professionals on YouTube. Talk to your psychologist and take as much help as possible.

Don’t try to isolate yourself.

Talk to your family members as often as possible. Within your safe bubble, you can meet loved ones as well.

Now, the next step is to stay organized. Plan your studies effectively. Start writing ASAP and make a habit of writing every day.

Stay ahead of deadlines. Spend your time wisely and you will experience less academic stress.

Make sure that you plan your writing intelligently. You should have a lot of time to get feedback and review your assignments of thesis to reduce academic stress.
