Overcoming College Anxiety

Before exams, I couldn't breathe until I learned a visualization trick that changed everything.

Picture yourself in a safe space, like a quiet beach. Notice five things

you see. Four you touch, three you hear, two you smell, and one you

taste. Real self care is showing up. Morning journaling or walking between classes

instead of scrolling. A friend stopped leaving her dorm for three days. Skipping meals and

constant dread. She walked into health services terrified and walked out with a treatment

plan. Asking for help is brave. Your mental health matters more than

any grade.
