stressor ★ 1

my involvement in Kathak, an after-school activity, is a stressor. My stress is a mix of positive and negative; it can sometimes be productive. On the other hand, there are moments when worrying too much has a detrimental effect on me. My stomach may start hurting or feeling weird. I would rate this stress a 4/10, 10 being the most.

a stressor in my life is school. Specifically tests and studying. I feel like I need breaks continuously, but I don't have the time to take breaks either. I never feel satisfied with myself and I feel I have the need of getting even better then I already am. The type of stress I experience from this is mostly negative stress. Sometimes, if I get really bad grades, my stress becomes positive stress, eustress. It helps me improve drastically. I would rate this stress a 9.5/10, 10 being the most.

my family, a stressor I have in my life. I love my family and they mean everything to me, but sometimes I can see that they put pressure, as there's always going to be.

Overall, this stress is somewhat negative and positive or eustress. I would rate this stress a 4.3/10, 10 being the most.

my hero is a part of a kpop group, blackpink, Rosé. She's a great kpop idol and has a very majestic and unique voice. I look up to her. I also sing so I can relate to her and her struggles. Overall, she's a great role model.

in my community, there are many resources for coping with stress and finding the right help. For instance, if you feel a friend or a loved one of yours is battling depression or is attempting to killing themselves, call 988 for the suicide hotline for help. This is very serious, asking them for permission is not always the right decision, as they're most likely to say no. If you don't stop them or seek help, they'll have passed and that's a very painful outcome.

sleeping or resting is a great way for me to reset and gain more energy. After school, I get very tired and my sleep schedule is very interesting, so sleeping in the afternoon or at a time I usually don't is a very good way to cope with my stress. This is one of my favorite coping mechanisms.

a major stressor I unfortunately have in my life are toxic friends and peer pressure. Most of my friends are genuine and very kind, they're very close, however, a few friends of mine constantly cause drama and unnecessary arguments that solely lead to self deprecation. They talk bad about many people behind their backs and spread rumours. I constantly fear what may be happening behind my back. This is negative stress. I would rate this stress a 9/10, 10 being the most.

whenever I feel stressed, a coping mechanism I use is reading. Reading a good book can make you feel like you're in the world the characters are, very enchanted and enjoyable. This helps me calm down and distracts me from my disruptive thoughts.
