School presented beneficial stress to me because it was a structure I thrive in. The pandemic has worn me out. At first it was very good to me--not only did I continue working with the developmentally disabled community, I got a second job cleaning hospital-related facilities so both my income and exercise level nearly doubled. I'm an introvert so social distancing comes naturally to me. And I've been able to help others adjust without restricting myself unreasonably. My position requires me to interact with many people daily, and the second job put undue strain on my injured brain until I simply had to leave, and the complications with doctor's appointments and other necessary tasks has meant I simply don't care for myself as well as I should. Hormonal changes just complicate everything. Now that the rest of the northern hemisphere is starting to recover, I'm ready to lock myself away for a month and pretend the world doesn't exist.

hey guys i don't wanna be a bummer or invalidate your stress, but my advice is that if school is the biggest thing you have to worry about, then you have a pretty good life compared to a lot of people.
that's how I comfort myself, by saying that other people have it worse and that i should be able to handle this.
no one else can study or do your homework for you. You have to take responsibility and do it yourself. no more victim mentality. we've all had bad teachers and piles of homework but that passes with time.
if school is the biggest thing you have to worry about, then figure out a way to minimize and manage that stress and make your life easier

My dog died,
Exams are coming up,
The place I work at can't support me in my practical training which I need for those exams,
The place I work at is a general mess (but I can't change because of the training,
I have to do daily reports of my work which I also need for the exams - I didn't write down a single word for this year so far and have to catch up with that until april 2022,
I moved to my first own flat which I have to take care of now,
During summer vacation I couldn't bring myself to do anything for school.
School starts again at monday next week
I really don't want to go

School stressed me out so much. I hated school uniforms. I also hate the fact that some people seek to take advantage of your good nature. I learned that the hard way. Although I was willing to help my classmates out with whatever they needed, it got to the point where they started to take advantage of my good nature, ranging from wanting to copy off my homework to making me buy things for them and I said yes no matter how detrimental it was to my well-being. It got to the point where I started to resent them for not giving me the same support.

I identified the cause for my stress: D is the college itself.
I have to stay one more year just because of a half designed college website that doesn't show all the classes that I had to attend and a professor who denied my exam answers as DOC file (she asked for had writing in order to avoid cheating )
Currently I'm preparing to apply jobs that are based on my passion and college that supposed to help me to get a job became a burden.
Good job education system; you have successfully failed your task.

I just recently dropped out of my honors math class bc I broke down the second week of school. Last year was so stressful, I barely survived through my math class. So I changed classes to a standard math class. Some students made fun of me for it, but at the end of the day I have more time to understand problems and even finish work from other classes. What really helped me was the story of Simone Biles and how she did what was best for her, even if that meant being ridiculed from her home country.

It's a nice video, but what you failed to mention is the difference between Eustress and Distress.
Eustress being the possitive stress which motivates us to continue in order to rip the rewards, and distress being the complete opposite which motivates us to completely stop the stressor by any means necessary.

I skip my homework just to exercise lol and get scolded because teachers think my exams will be hampered lol!
I don't really care about my marks, getting a straight A+ is easy for me but I can't risk my passions and a fit body just for book knowledge!
A typical mistake that everyone make but, I will try not to.

I feel like the reason students are stressed at school was not because of homework and learning, but it's because of exams and grades. Most students feel stressed because if they don't do well in exams and don't get good grades, it'll affect their academic performance and they might think they're a failure

I personally believe that school's should allow students to pick their own subject from earlier that are beneficial to their dream career. Like I want to be a psychiatrist but in Jamaica that seems pointless. The four most common professions are in the education, military or medical fields.

I remember that sometimes I would joke sometimes to my mum about not going to school the next day and then, unexpectedly, I was nearly out of the door on my way to school when I burst into tears because it was giving me too much stress and anxiety

i legit don't stress at all, even if when i deal with extreme frustration or when i'm struggling with school work and have the possibility of failing, i've learnt how to not stress out of fear of getting an aneurysm or something like that.

Honestly, my campus went full on school acting like life was back to normal and completely filled small classrooms, increased the course load, and so much more. I ended up having to drop out my senior year because of all of the stress.

I think school will be more tolerable if you are studying to get to the dream you want, not what parents want you to be. I am stressed out for school and I am also stressed out because I hate what I am stressing about

The key to stress, among many other things, is learning to see it as your body telling you something and learning to understand that language your body uses to communicate with you.
