Any tips for dealing with massive burnout?

As a design uni student I’m seriously struggling since January and it’s deeply affecting my productivity.

Thanks in advance :’3

If it's art related and you can't take a break, I recomend trying a new style or making mindless doodles to try and ease some pressure from your brain. Make something you don't have standards for, just to try and get back into it!
I genuinely would just take a break and do other creative things that doesn't pertain to drawing something for a bit, music, watching films/series, create reference boards etc.

If I'm truly creatively burned out, I'll distract myself with other hobbies like language learning and try not to push it.
