Hello Teens & ATLs, I hope you are all being easy on yourself this week. 


Last week we discussed: What were your favorite subjects in high school? How do you plan to continue pursuing these interests in college?  Thank you to all who participated and shared their thoughts for discussion. I enjoyed them. I hope you all did too. If you didn't share yours, please share them here and I look forward to reading and discussing them with you.


This week's prompt: Are you feeling overwhelmed by the stress of high school?


This week I want us to reflect and explore our high school experiences and stress. Stress is a common experience for high school students, but it's important to remember that you're not alone.   I look forward to listening to all your experiences and emotions. Let's get started and all thoughts are welcomed!


Also, you can request a Transitioning Mentor to support and guide you as well!

High school stress can feel like a lot balancing grades, future plans, and everything else life throws at you. Sometimes, the pressure to have everything figured out is overwhelming. Click here, I found that stepping outside of my usual environment and experiencing something different really helped.  It wasn’t just about academics it was about gaining confidence and perspective.

@limeBanana1581 Thank you for sharing with us, Lime. feels like you are navigating some really complex emotions and it takes a lot of strength to deal with that. Please know you are not alone and your every step is counting. If I can ask how can you feel more supported?
