Do you have sleeping problems? Is it hard for you to remember or pay attention in class? Do you easily get angry? If your answer is yes, you may be under pressure.

Stress is a normal physical response to things that make people feel worried. In China, about 70 percent of the 2000 students to take the college or high school entrance examination are under high stress, according to a recent survey by Wuhan University of Hubei province.

Sometimes stress is good for people. It pushes people to do their best, like while getting ready before a big competition or exam. However, too much or long-term stress makes people feel much too stressed out, and influences people’s health.

When you feel stressed, there are some ways you can deal with it. Learning to solve small problems in everyday life is helpful. It can help build confidence to move on to life’s bigger ones. Try saying positive things to yourself, like “I will do the best I can,” or “I can do this if I take one step at a time.” That encourages you to work toward your goal. It is also important to relax sometimes, for example by getting a good night’s sleep, doing exercises or taking a bath. But if you are under high stress and can’t handle it by yourself, it is also good to ask parents or friends for help. Everyone has stress. Don’t be too shy to tell them that you are having a hard time. They may comfort you or give you some useful advice. You may feel better just from sharing your problems with them.
