Dear Paul,
How are you doing now? Thanks a lot for your email. And I am very concerned about you. You mentioned that you have been under great pressure because you need to study well. I have been there. And I have some suggestions for you to consider.
First of all, you can tell your problems to your teachers and classmates who may be able to help you. Maybe you teachers and classmates have met the similar problems as you do now. And they have discovered some solutions for the pressure.
Secondly, you should focus on your own progress rather than compare yourself with other classmates. Everyone is unique. And you should try to find your strengths and build up your confidence gradually. In my opinion, as long as you have made progress over a period of time, you should celebrate and reward yourself one way or another.
Thirdly, whenever you feel nervous and frustrated, you should turn to physical exercises. Let jogging or yoga be part of your daily routine. That way you can discipline yourself and become stronger day by day. And you will find an outlet for your pressure from study. You can also play sports with friends, which is helpful for your mood and for your sleep problems.
In a word, there are more answers to your pressure issues. You can choose one of the above mentioned tips and stick to it. And I hope you can survive the study pressure and succeed in the end.
Best regards,
Liming
