How to keep the Sunday Scaries away
"Sunday Scaries" is the anxiety that sets in on Sundays with anticipating the return to school or work.
What contributes to Sunday Scaries?
- Holding off on doing homework until the last minute
- Not having adequate relaxation time
- Not having enough time to study
- Not looking forward to a certain class
- Not looking forward to waking up early
How to keep the Sunday Scaries away:
- Create a checklist of assignments that need to be completed before Monday and for the remainder of the week
- Create a relaxing Sunday night routine to take care of yourself before returning to school
- Practice self-care and relaxation techniques
- Find a bedtime that works for your schedule and stick to it consistently
- Set up a Monday treat for yourself. Ex: eating your favorite breakfast food, packing yourself a piece of candy to enjoy at school, listening to your favorite music or podcast
