College students have bad habits that they need to break. Here's a list of the habits and how to break them.
Students often don’t get enough sleep because they go to sleep late and wake up early and sometimes have a hard time falling asleep. 60 percent of college students report that they are dragging, tired and sleepy because they’re sleep deprived, according to a study by nature and science of sleep. Experts suggest that college students need at least 8 hours of sleep every night.
College students drink a lot of coffee for writing papers, preparing for exams and reading textbooks. However, too much coffee can cause more harm than good. Too much coffee can cause irritability, dehydration and headaches. It’s important to drink coffee moderately and know your limits.
Binge drinking is defined as drinking five or more drinks for men and four or more drinks for women in about two hours. Almost 40 percent of college men and women binge drink. You should know your limits and plan what you’re going to do before the night starts.
Procrastination can affect a student’s mental health and well-being. According to a study by the association for psychological science, at the beginning of the semester students who procrastinate have lower stress and are less prone to mental illnesses than non-procrastinators. However, later in the semester they have higher stress levels and are more prone to mental illnesses. You should prepare yourself for an assignment and get it done in a timely manner and give yourself an incentive to finish early.
Because college students are always in class and on the go, skipping meals happens a lot. Many college students don’t know that skipping meals is bad for their health. Skipping meals causes you to be irritable, confused and weak. It can also cause a slowing of your metabolism which makes it hard to lose weight. To fix this you should eat protein snacks like granola bars that you can keep in your backpack. This helps make things easier to eat on the go.
