I started noticing how stressful school can really be. I am also someone who easily gets stress and gets really down when things don’t go right. I want things to constantly be right. I want my life to constantly be in the right direction and pushing myself to do things I have never done before. Pushing myself outside of my comfort zone can be stressful but also a pleasure.

I have noticed changes in my health because of my stress levels. I have noticed changes in my eating habit as well as loosing hair at a higher rate than normal. I started gaining weight as well as loosing weight dramatically. I started staying in and stopped hanging out with friends because I felt stressed constantly and my stress levels raised when I went out.

Now that it is summer and I have more time, I have been able to relax and only worry about my writing. I bought a adult stress coloring book. This coloring book has made me feel so much better. I bought this coloring book one day ago and I already feel better in general. Granted, my finals just ended so I definitely do not feel as stressed as I normally would. But the fact that something as simple as a coloring book could help me relieve some stress.

If you’re stressed out, I highly suggest that you buy an adult coloring book because it can release some stress for you.

If coloring isn’t your thing, I would suggest things like exercise, lighting candles, reduce caffeine intake, write about your problems, yoga, cuddle, listen to soothing music, deep breathing and spend time with loved ones or even pets.
