By Jayden, Chester Charter Scholars Academy Healthy Highlights | Sometimes when I am nervous, or experiencing anxiety, I go to God and ask him to take away all my stress. Sometimes I just take a moment to get calm and breathe. When I’m playing hide and seek or when there’s a test day, I take a moment to take a breather or I just go somewhere calm, like my bed or my couch. I’ll just lie down and then I will watch a movie or play Roblox.

When I’m in big, big trouble, I play with my dog or take care of my lizards. I find something to distract me from my problems. Sometimes I build a pillow fort on my bed and watch my favorite show or YouTuber. Sometimes I’ll call my friend and play some games with them. But sometimes when I try to just take a nap or go to sleep, it’s even harder because when I close my eyes to go to sleep, my problems are the only things that I think about.
