A member asked:

How do you cope with stress as an a level student?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Drop thoughts: Stress is not just about the situation; but primarily caused by our thoughts about the situation. Perhaps you are worried about maintaining an a average to the point that it stresses you. Exercise your ability to casually drop stressful thoughts and also breath deeply to send a relaxing parasympathetic volley through your system.
