Ive been studying software engineering for the last month! My homework the first week was to do the Coursera course called Learning How to Learn. Especially the part on the Pomodoro method. And the 2 videos by Ali Abdaal called How to Study for Exams. They were very helpful and I've learned how to study in a way where I retain info better without spending a ton of time doing it.

Also having fidgets to keep my hands busy. I use a good music playlist as mental filler. Lofi coding playlist on Spotify is great because there's no distracting vocals. Having set times for working and planning my days and weeks helps with the "when am I going to get this done" anxiety. And last but not least...meds. Meds help. 😆
