Anxiety for me feels like there’s a constant weight on my chest. I find myself worrying about things that haven’t happened, and it’s hard to shake that feeling.
For me, therapy has been a journey of discovering how to handle stress better. My therapist has shown me grounding techniques that have helped me a lot when I feel overwhelmed.
I recommend using social media or school apps to find events or groups that align with your interests. It’s a good way to connect with others who share similar passions.
A supportive friendship is one that accepts you for who you are. I think it’s essential to appreciate each other’s differences and respect each other’s opinions without forcing changes.
I realized a friendship was toxic when I felt drained after spending time with that person. They often made everything about themselves, and I felt invisible. Cutting ties was tough, but necessary.
To avoid peer pressure, I focus on activities and hobbies that reflect who I am. This has helped me find friends who share my interests rather than trying to fit into certain expectations.
Finding a balance is all about being intentional. I set goals for my schoolwork and reward myself with social time once I complete them. It keeps me motivated!
When I feel down about my appearance, I try to remember that beauty isn’t just about looks. I focus on being kind and strong, and it’s helped me see myself in a different light.
Social media makes it easy to forget that everyone has insecurities. I started reminding myself that even those with ‘perfect’ bodies face self-doubt. This mindset shift has helped me focus on my own health and happiness rather than comparing myself.
Last year, I had a falling out with a group of friends because of a rumor. It was a tough situation, but I learned that it’s important not to let gossip dictate your friendships. I confronted them and we worked things out, but it taught me the value of trust and loyalty.
My journey to confidence hasn’t been easy, but I’ve learned that comparing myself to others only brings me down. Now, I focus on my own growth and celebrate my achievements, no matter how small. Confidence is a practice, and it gets stronger the more I work on it.
I created a resume template that’s visually appealing but still professional. Employers are looking for something easy to read but also impressive. I also focus on writing a cover letter that shows my personality while highlighting why I’m the right fit for the job.
I enjoy knitting, and what started as a way to relax has now turned into a business. I started selling scarves and hats at school, and people loved them! Now I’m thinking about starting an Etsy store to reach more people.
I’ve found that social media is a double-edged sword. It’s fun, but it also makes me feel like I’m in constant competition with others. Whether it’s for likes, followers, or attention, it’s exhausting. How do you manage this feeling of competition?
I constantly feel like I’m not doing enough or that I’m not good enough. But I’ve started practicing daily affirmations, and it’s helped me reframe my thoughts. What’s one thing you tell yourself to stay confident when self-doubt hits?
