Managing College Anxiety Effectively

Anxiety in college is real, but here's what actually helps. When your chest

tightens during exams, try box breathing: inhale four counts, hold four,

exhale four, hold four. Game changer. Break assignments into tiny tasks

instead of staring at huge deadlines. I learned this after my first semester meltdown.

And listen, reaching out to campus counseling isn't weakness, it's self-awareness.

You're not supposed to handle everything alone. Taking care of your mental health is

the smartest thing you can do for your future.
