Everyone feels stressed sometimes; it’s part of life. However, if you often feel stressed, you might want
to consider making some changes. Fortunately, there are many ways to fight stress.
First of all, when your homework seems too difficult to do, take a break and get some exercise. Go to
the gym or play a game of football or volleyball with your friends. This will help you forget your problems,
relax and keep healthy at the same time.
Also, when you feel stressed, it’s a good idea to talk to someone. It can be a parent, a teacher, or a
friend; it doesn’t really matter who you talk to. Often, talking about a problem is enough to make you feel
better. When you share your worries, you can get some great advice and support, too.
Finally, when problems start to seem like too much, a good night’s sleep can be just what the doctor
ordered. You are sure to feel better in the morning and you might even wake up and wonder why you were
so worried in the first place.
So, while stress is something we all face, there are plenty of ways to prevent it from getting out of hand.
