Stress is a normal part of our lives. The trick comes in dealing with it. Stress occurs instantly whereas anxiety is caused by something that already happened or will happen in the future.
SOLUTION:
Practice self-care. Ask yourself: “What do I like to do?” and “What makes me happy?” If it all starts feeling overwhelming, do that thing.
Here are some more ways of taking care of yourself. E.g.:

- Ensure you sleep adequately. (6-8hrs)
Remember, when you do feel stressed, slow down and take a break. It’s okay.
