School can be stressful
As we all know or think, high school can be one of the most stressful times in our educational years.
Teachers may not believe that this pressure can also cause physical anxiety, which may lead to health problems. Physical stress that may be caused by too much pressure can lead to irritation and fatigue. These problems can also have a major impact on the brain.
People don’t know how hard students work to have that 4.0 GPA on their report cards. In some cases students get frustrated and even have a mental breakdown, due to the simple fact that they didn’t get the grade they were striving for.
We have all experienced that last-minute assignment that we stayed up hours trying to complete, but by the time we finished it, we barely got any sleep.
If the average amount of sleep a teen needs is 8-10 hours, and many don’t have the time to get half of that, it is certain that they will have health problems.
So it’s for our benefit that we know how to prevent and control academic stress. It can be as simple as taking a little time off to relax your mind just for a little. This can help you relieve the stress and tension that you have going on.
It’s also OK for you to tell your parents if you have too much pressure on you. They might be able to help before it gets worse.
You should also remember to use good time management so you won’t be up late completing something that you had enough time to do.
It can also be useful if you ask your teacher to inform the class about preventing academic stress. That way he or she has an idea of how academic stress can affect you.
I'm a sophomore in the TV Production Academy. I plan on going to college after I graduate. I enjoy learning new things all the time, also I am very open...

I think that this is true because we have to focus on many different things and that’s not always easy to do.

It really is stressful in classes, but we’ll graduate one day… and then start the stress all over with college!

Great job of writing and a topic that needs to be open for discussion. I am one who has always held high expectations for my students and sometimes may not have known when those expectations were causing students stress. It is important to have open communication with your teachers so that they can help you manage your stress. This stress doesn’t end here, there are times when you will feel it in college and in the workforce, so bravo for providing students with strategies to manage stress. I personally enjoy a good workout on my treadmill listening to music, it always takes the tenseness out of my shoulders!

Why get stressed? Pass this message on my dear child! It is what it is! What is could never be what is not, so acceptance is the only sensible response. Don’t stress yourself!

What a great photo to illustrate this story. I see a high angle, I see strong shot composition, I see an effective visual story here. Proud of you.

I never get stressed because I’m too mellow. If I get overwhelmed I just do nothing and play some video games. Because why be stressed about the world crumbling around you when you could be playing Mario kart and watching the world crumble?
