There are some days where we are happy and carefree. There are also moments that we want to shrivel up into a ball and just close ourselves off from the outside world. Dealing with stress and anxiety can be a difficult task, especially if you do not know how to calm down or have a good support system. Everyone wants that feeling of support from someone who can calm us down when we get into a state of anxiety, but that is not always the case. Sometimes we are alone and need a little reminder that can help us get back up and continue on with our day. Here are a few quotes that can be used to help deal with a sudden moment of anxiety:

"Life is not a dress rehearsal. Every day, you should have at least one exquisite moment." - Sally Karioth

"Anxiety happens when you think you have to figure everything all at once. Breathe. You're strong. You got this. Take it day by day." - Karen Salmansohn

"Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it with the handle of anxiety or the handle of faith." - Harry Ward Beecher

"The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was and the present worse than it is." - Anonymous

"Forgive yourself for believing that you're anything less than beautiful." - Iyanla Vanzant

"To escape fear, you have to go through it, not around." - Richie Norton

"Do not give your past the power to define your future." - Anonymous

"Do not believe the things you tell yourself when you are sad and alone." -Anonymous

Anxiety is one of the hardest struggles that people have to get through in their lives. Some have it less than other people, while others have to struggle with it every moment of their lives. Take these quotes to heart whether you struggle with anxiety every day or here and there moments. Practice building yourself up because the results will be amazing in the long run.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
