Different people cope in different ways.
Unfortunately your social life is going to go on ice for a while- but do get out and let your hair down the odd time or else you'll go insane.
Best way of seeing yourself through the stressful period is by trying to make sure you are in as good health as possible- eating properly, getting enough sleep, being realistic with what you can and cannot do- and by following a schedule and sticking to it. Some people can pull an all-nighter the day before an assignment is due and hand up something reasonable the next morning- they are the exception. Most people have to put thought and effort into their work, and take commensurate pride in it.

Essentially- eat properly, get enough sleep, make a schedule and stick to it. Its boring, but its tried and trusted. I know April seems a long time away- it isn't. Put in the work now, and think of the fun you'll have over the summer.

It doesn't matter - your life will be fine whatever you do and however well you do. It's cool. Be cool.

Make a plan, structure the work somehow and do your damnest to stick to the plan. Allow a day off every week, and take it, unless you're really under pressure,

when you have lots of work to do, putting a plan in place makes you look at it in a realistic fashion. But make sure to take time off, and above all else, remember that at the end of it all, you'll still be here

You have to cope, really. Every journey begins with a single step. Sit down and start working and stop procrastinating.

So you have three to go. All comments here are spot on. Did four years myself by night and survived to tell the tale. Organise yourself, head down and June will be here before you know it.
