Excessive reading, especially under intense pressure, can contribute to stress and mental fatigue. It's crucial to maintain a balance in your study routine, including breaks for relaxation and self-care. If you or someone you know is experiencing mental health challenges, it's essential to seek support. A counselor or mental health professional can provide guidance and coping strategies tailored to individual needs.

It depends..
Sometimes some people might conceive it as a stress and that might cause some mental health issues..
Still, the concerned person and the family need to take the necessary steps to overcome this issue personally by themselves..
