What do you do when school works become too much for you to handle? This week is a week before my exams and I'm feeling more stress than ever. I try to calm myself relax a little bit but I just don't have enough time for that anymore. :( What do you do when you have just an ample amount of time to relieve stress from school?

Well about me I never have any exam stress because I don't study one day before the exams and I don't take tension at all as if I don't know anything I just see here and there and write the answer for you I would suggest go for a walk sleep for some time or listen to some soft songs which will reduce your stress and all the best for your exams....

I am currently enrolled in a business course at a local community college and I am finding it hard to handle at times.I am almost none half of the course and I am running into serious burnout right now.I work part times as well go to college so I literally have no days in which I am able to sleep in.I have to wake up at 7 am to get to college and do not leave until after 4:30pm.On top of that i work both Saturday and Sunday in retail and have to wake up at 4:30 am both days.The week I get of between semesters is well due and I cannot wait until it arrives in less than 2 weeks from now.

My usual treatment for stress is to do ordinary day-to-day things with a twist. For example, instead of going to my normal route to school, I would take another route and let myself wander for a little while. This activity leads me to places that either I missed or never seen before which results in taking my mind off the subject I'm currently stressing on. Another activity I regularly do is reading or having a book spree. These activities help me by having a good distraction by way of a good story or an interesting book that I may be tempted to buy.

Yeah, I get stressed out by school a lot also, especially with final exams coming up the week after next. When I get stressed out by school work I'll take a break from it and listen to music, watch a movie, play video games or do something else that relaxes me. Generally that helps, though sadly I have to stop relaxing eventually and get my work done, lol.
