College is definitely a time of stress, but also kind of awesome. Seriously a mixed bag. Hope you find your stride. A lot of colleges have places where you can talk or destress. Try to take advantage if you can.
There's usually a way you can take a quarter off as a break or something. The advisors are there to help you get your degree, and part of that is making sure you get there. Burnout is common. You might also see if there's a study group or a club, or just a central gathering place where you can meet with like minded stressed people. ;) Sometimes that's less daunting. (For instance we have a student lounge, or a math club, or an advisor who is also a student, or a math study room.) There might also be a local Discord for discussing things. (I know out math grads have one.)
Hope it gets you some ideas.
Also, maybe find a park or green outdoor space to sit outside and study for some of it. It can help to get a change of scenery, and outdoor spaces are supposed to help destress.
Often when I'm depressed or stressed, it's hard to look for ways to feel less so, and hard to reach out. Glad you've got some ideas now! Hope something clicks for you.

So far its been okay, but I've been getting burnout and anxiety thinking of 4-5h a day of studying again :')
Do you happen to have suggestions?
Thank you for replying though regardless, it was kind of you.
