Students report: school stress and the struggle for leisure

In a recent survey, students from the youth magazine of MeinDärzin shared their thoughts about well -being during school. The results show that many of them suffer from lack of time and pressure, which significantly influences their everyday life. This is particularly worrying for the youth in Murtal and Murau.

A 15-year-old student from Judenburg, Viktoria, describes that her concentration will decrease during the school day. After the lunch break, it is difficult for her to stay focused. "It often feels like I'm just serving," she explains what a common feeling is among her peers. This leads to the fact that exhaustion often resonates after school.

high expectations and time pressure

The pupils are confronted with high expectations, but notice that they are often left alone. Close deadlines for homework and projects increase stress because you hardly find time to work thoroughly every single order. Luca reports: "Something new comes constantly that has to be done". Often the weekends are also filled with learning material, so that leisure suffers from it. "Long school days, homework, tutoring - there is hardly any time for myself," adds Leticia, which further complicates the situation.

In addition, the lack of free time leads to the young people sleep less. This sleep deficit increases the tiredness and reduces performance, which creates a vicious circle of stress and exhaustion.

pressure to perform as a constant companion

The pressure to perform is immensely polluted by the youth. Sarah describes it like this: "It feels like you are never good enough. Sometimes everything will be too much." Some students are so overwhelmed that they develop fears in relation to their future. This feeling is widespread among the young people and could have long -term effects on their psychological well -being.

In order to meet these challenges, it is crucial to bring effective techniques for coping with stress to the students. Viktoria suggests that you should learn to deal with the pressure better. Your idea reflects the desire for improved dealings with the current challenges.

Time management is at the top of the list of recommended strategies. When students divide their tasks into smaller, feasible parts and set fixed times for learning and leisure, they have more control over their situation. Regular breaks are also important to recharge your batteries. Sports and relaxation techniques such as breathing exercises can also help to reduce stress. In addition, the exchange with friends or family is of great importance about their own challenges.
