In my entire life, I have seen so many people and my closet friends completely break – emotionally, physically and mentally – under their stress. I realize that students who are so young and cannot cope with different kinds of problem in school; those are the significant problems of many students. In order to eliminate stress, I have to find its causes first. I have many ways of dealing with stress depending on the causes of stress on case-by-case basis.
