• Have you ever experienced stress?
• What was the cause of it?
• How did you manage it?
• Can you think any other way by which you could have better managed it?

Answer 1

• Yes. I have felt stressed at times, especially when I had several tasks to complete or an important test coming up.
• The main causes were worrying about my performance, having too little time to prepare and trying to meet high expectations.
• I made a plan, completed one task at a time, took short breaks and spoke with someone I trusted.
• I could have started preparing earlier, followed a regular routine, slept sufficiently and used simple relaxation practices such as slow breathing or meditation.
