Are you drinking coffee or have dark circles under your eyes? Is your posture slightly slumped from exhaustion? Are you close to falling asleep in the library? Well then you just might have it- Tired College Student Syndrome. Careful, it’s contagious.

Signs of Tired College Student Syndrome include:

Unwillingness to get out of bed in the morning, or in the afternoon, after that two hour nap you didn’t mean to take. Oops. But why go outside when your bed is warm and comfy? Of course, besides that pesky going to class thing.

Dark circles under the eyes. You can’t seem to get rid of them, and you swear that every month they get a just a tad darker.

A deep love for coffee. Honestly, anything with caffeine is fine. When someone asks you if you have a caffeine addiction, you hold your head up high and proudly deny it. And then head to the nearest coffee shop.

Drooping eyelids during class or while studying. Watch out, because this one can hit you anytime, any place. It may be tempting, but I highly recommend not giving in during class. Turns out, professors don’t appreciate that.

Trouble putting sentences together, even the most simple ones. This one usually happens around night time, after a full day of classes, studying, and extracurriculars. Somehow you can’t get the words from your brain to your mouth correctly, and usually ends with weird looks from those around you.

A slightly hunched posture- mostly from carrying your backpack around everywhere. Whoever says that the MacBook Air feels like it weighs nothing is a liar. After walking some distance, and walking up three flights of stairs, it feels as though you’re carrying around five textbooks instead of just one.

Daydreaming about the next time you get to be in bed. When the professor is talking about the history of- something (you must’ve been zoning out again), your thoughts can’t help but wander to when you get to climb into bed again. Especially when you think about how late you were up the night before typing an essay.

And the worse of them all- the desire to stay up unnecessarily late almost everyday. It’s eleven at night? Oh good, that means it’s early. There’s still time for easy mac and looking at flashcards while simultaneously watching Netflix on your laptop.

How do you cure Tired College Student Syndrome? Easy, just wait for a break and you’ll most likely lose most symptoms. But beware- once you catch it, it’s way too easy to get it again. And it will probably happen again.

But it’s okay, because you have coffee.
