Need emotional support from nyctophiles: I need to write 10,000 words essays in 7 days

edited March 27 in Work & Study
I need to write 10,000 words essays in 7 days and the uni said that they cannot offer more extensions. I am still going to hand in the EC form if I really cannot do it but I would aim for doing it on time. It is inconvenient to call helplines and sometimes they do not work and may make me feel worse. The waiting time of helplines is also too long and I cannot concentrate with music in the background. The waiting time of Shout is also very long at midnight. I am wondering if there are any nyctophiles on this forum who can be with me when I need to stay up? I will try not to stay up late but it seems unavoidable right now.

    Hi @Kate_20,

    I can understand how difficult this must be for you. I have often needed to turn to helplines with the stress of pressing deadlines. Some resources you might find beneficial include YouTube's StudyTube (particularly live study with me's) as they help you to feel like people are with you and Student Space. You can use Student Space by going to studentspace.org.uk, texting 'STUDENT' to 85258​ or calling them on 808 189 5260 between 4pm and 11pm.

    I believe you have 6 days left now for your 10,000 word essay. I would split this into 2,000 words each day for 5 days and then proofread, edit it and submit it on the 6th day! I hope this helps :)

    @Laura_tigger82 Thank you Laura. Student Space told me that they are the same charity as TheMix and unfortunately I cannot call TheMix again. I would try to write it right now before the ambulance comes.

    @Past User Not good I cannot concentrate not knowing when the ambulance will come. Do you like talking about theories with me? You don't have to know about it but talking to people can make it clearer.

    How are you feeling now @Kate_20? Is there anything I can help with? I appreciate that you must have had a tough week :/ hugs! I would have stayed up with you so you had someone to talk to but I am unfortunately not a night owl unless uni forces me to be!
