Being able to control your stress will make your days easier. In order to manage your time and work, being calm is the most important resource you have. Leaning on friends and family can build you up and encourage you to keep going. Finding something that you love and can freely do, releases stress and anxiety.
Some days life can seem like too much. Whether it’s work, friends, family, I mean it’s definitely family but other stuff could be going on, too. There are a lot of ways people choose to cope with stress. Do the words “Netflix and Chill,” ring any bells?
