๐ The exam is finished, but your feelings might not be.
As exams come to an end, many young people expect to feel relieved. However, in our therapeutic work, we often hear that worries can continue long after the exam has finished.
Young people may still experience:
๐ญ Overthinking answers they gave
๐ Worrying about results day
๐ด Feeling exhausted after weeks of revision
๐คท Feeling uncertain about what comes next
These feelings are a normal response to a period of prolonged pressure and stress.
At Young Herts, we support young people to understand their emotions, manage anxiety and build coping strategies that work for them.
Remember: one exam, one result or one grade does not define your worth. ๐
