What to do? Currently a senior and it’s come to those last final months and I’ve been having major senioritis, I feel very drained and I just want to know any tips or hacks to keep myself motivated to finish the school year strong please?
Senior, have pretty good grades all 90’s I’m just getting so tired and unmotivated lately.

Jeilyn - ENJOY your final chapter of student life! Of course, get the work done... something that helped me was ensuring I had a good plan in place to spend enough time on the bare bones to ensure I didn't lose / 'throw away' all the hard work I'd put in up until that point... meaning... don't succumb to senioritis so badly that you drop your GPA in the final weeks... BUT past that... have FUN! Cherish every moment. You've earned it, especially with such good grades, and you absolutely deserve a little grace and reprieve to get in some R&R (and celebrating) before your next endeavor. I also find that giving yourself space to enjoy and celebrate can naturally lead to less of the burnout feeling! You've got this! Congratulations!

You have already taken the first step, demonstrating your motivation to do well, by asking this question. Congratulate yourself on how far you have come and try to think about what things might make you happy in the future. Those can be little things like bringing smiles to people you don't know, or making new friends that will last a lifetime.
You probably have many years ahead to decide what you want to do. Some folks find taking a year off to explore their future can be an exciting time in their life. If you're feeling down, talk to someone who is a good listener (family, friend, relative, neighbor, pastor, or search online). Feel free to share your feelings and take the best advice you are given. Many people turn to God or a Higher Power for help on difficult days.
With every good wish and many blessings,
