I’m currently in highschool. I’m in AP Pre Calculus, and AP Language and Composition. Along with that I’m also trumpet section leader in band. It hasn’t even been two days of school and I’m already stressed. Last year my mental health got so low that I didn’t even try at the end. I don’t want that to happen again this year, but with how tired I’m already feeling, I feel like it’s gonna happen again, but this time, instead of the end of the year, it’s gonna be the beginning of the year.

What is going through your thoughts.... you list all items you are doing.... but how do you feel about it?  

high school or even university as time goes by it can be more then the difficult subject or committing to things like band....... but the feeling of time passing too quickly and what is next or are we ready for the next level in life .. the new things coming our way.   Stress can bring on depression and tired feeling like it is just too much

I feel overwhelmed by everything. I feel like I put too much pressure on myself, and now I’m just expected to be able to do it all.

I think many of us have been through that and although it feels like it most people do NOT expect you to know it all and do it all.... we put that pressure on ourselves.

Hi there,

It sounds like you have a lot on your plate with AP Pre Calculus, AP Language and Composition, and leading the trumpet section in band. It’s completely understandable to feel overwhelmed, especially with such a demanding schedule and the pressure of maintaining your mental health. It’s important to acknowledge how you’re feeling and to find ways to manage your stress before it builds up.

If you ever need someone to talk to or just need a space to express how you’re feeling, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m here to listen and support you. How are you holding up today? Are there any specific aspects of your schedule that are particularly challenging right now?
