Academic stress causes a decrease in well-being as well as an increased risk of getting anxiety or depression. 
Furthermore, students who are under academic stress do poorly in school or at university. 
What generates anxiety in the classroom? 
For many students, a mix of factors such as poor study habits, poor performance in the past, and an underlying anxiety disorder can all contribute to test anxiety. 
Now, my question is, how do you deal with academic worry or stress? 
What advice would you give to a sibling, friend, or relative in grade 12 (because we all know how stressful grade 12 can be) who is suffering from or facing academic stress?

Every student has that worry at the back of their minds "DID I STUDY ENOUGH FOR THAT TEST" or "ARE MY RESULTS GOOD ENOUGH TO BE ACCEPTED BY A UNIVERSITY".

And stress is not always a bad thing because stress can push us to do certain things like study for an exam, but when stress is coupled with worry and anxiety that's when it starts to become a problem. That's when we start to neglect ourselves and our well beings.

The advice I would give to anymore in grade 12 and is currently feeling stressed is firstly let all worries about the things that have passed go. Do not continue to stress about the test you wrote yesterday because it is done and out of your hands. All you can do is try and take it one day at a time. study a little everyday so that you do not feel pressured the night before. As silly as it sounds - do breathing exercises, they are a good way to calm you so that you clear you mind and start thinking rationally.

The most important thing is if you feel like this is just too much for you - speak to someone you trust.]]> 2022-04-25 18:45:32 UTC https://padlet.com/shalynntamicamanuel1701/peoov31n7lumejxt/wish/2157161417
