How am I going to handle all of the stress in college if I can’t even handle the stress from 8th grade?

I have so much homework all of the time and have dance everyday of the week so I can barely get it done. I am terrible at science but I want to become a doctor which includes a lot of scientific knowledge in it.

Thank you for your question. I am sorry to hear that you have so much stress. I believe some time management skills may help. Firstly, you identify a time management that suits you, E.g your phone calendar, Google Calendar, MS Outlook, etc.
Below are my suggestion :
1. Put down the time need to attend school and dancing lesson
2. Assign some time everyday for assignment, projects and revision. Make sure you review the material covered in the class on the same day especially science. If you have any question, ask the teacher on the next school day.
3. Make sure you have sufficient time to sleep everyday and do some exercise.
4. Allocate some time for your leisure and friends & family gathering
5. Assign more time before the exam and assessment. You can consider to form study groups with your classmates especially on science.
You don't need to fill up your schedule completely. Leave some 'me' time for reflection and relax.
Hope this helps! Good Luck!

Tricia’s Answer

First, know that what you are going through and feeling are very normal. When you are growing up you will go through growth curves that can feel overwhelming. But what you’ll find is that over time you’ll adjust to the learning curve and the overwhelming feeling will subside. It will normalize until you experience that next big learning curve. It can be academics — going from elementary to middle to high school and college or trade. It can be in life moving to a new place, or your living situation changing (being with a family, roommate, significant other, or on your own). It can be moving from dependence (family) to independence (striking out on your own). To help lessen the overwhelming feelings ask yourself what do you need to know to help with any discomfort or anxiety you’re feeling — do you need knowledge, tools, support, etc.? Talk to a trusted adult (teacher, coach, mentor) to help you. Stay in the moment of where you are and don’t think too far ahead. My son got good advice on this when he was younger. Think of life like a video game. If you’re in the 8th grade you’re on Level 8 in the game. Working on mastering Level 8 for the rest of the school year, then prepare yourself for the next level over the summer break. You’ll still need work getting better at each new level but it’s allowing yourself the time and experience to adjust that’s important. You’ve got this!

Hi Olivia,

How do you plan to develop an unbeatable stress management strategy? The answer lies in simple, natural nourishment, not drugs or medication. You've arrived at a place where you'll find empowering solutions. It's true that humans have created complex organic chemistry labs to produce drugs like amphetamines. However, nature has already provided us with the nutrients our bodies need. The goal is not just to function like an old car, but to operate like a high-performance Ferrari Dino, capable of ~10,000 revs per minute.

You're already aware of the advanced nutritional principles that top athletes and sportspeople use to shatter records. These are well-established methods, almost second nature to a dietitian-nutritionist with 35 years of experience!

I started my journey by educating health workers about nutrition 42 years ago. I collaborated with natural health practitioners and medical doctors, and then I ventured into software programming for nutritional education, starting in 1972. So, how can you naturally enhance your performance? The most widespread deficiency globally is water, even though we live on a water-rich planet!

The primary source of calories should come from low glycemic index carbohydrates like lentils, starchy beans, and chickpeas, not from sugar, honey, or coffee. Avoiding alcohol is crucial for optimal performance. Opt for breads, pasta, and cereals that are unsweetened, unrefined, and packed with fiber. Choose less sweet fruits like strawberries over bananas. Dilute fruit juices with water, and enjoy freshly diluted lemon juice. Incorporate plenty of peas in your diet instead of spaghetti, potato, or white rice. Choose brown rice and freshly sprouted sprouts.

The best proteins come from vegetarian sources or fish, not from beef, pork, game, or chicken. Hummus is a low glycemic index fuel food. Green juices are beneficial, but avoid prolonged periods of fasting or starvation. Include omega-3 rich fish a few times a week. Limit your intake of cod liver oil to 1 to 2 teaspoons a day. Consume fresh palm oil or wheat germ oil, but no more than 3 teaspoons a day. Limit your dark unsweetened chocolate intake to 2 squares a day. Incorporate chili, garlic, and turmeric (in moderation) a few times a week.

Choose Sanitarium peanut paste and tahini over margarine. Include 4 Brazil nuts a day in your diet. Dilute carrot juice with water and opt for grapes instead of sultanas or raisins.

Hope this helps,

Jim.
