School work piling up, lots of projects and pressure on time issues. Wanted to escape but can't.
I liked being able to do a topic that was relevant (actually my issue)
I liked addressing hard topics with individuals.
Not that I noticed.
Hello. I wanted to talk about my academic pressures.

Hi there. What academic pressures are troubling you today?
assistant
Question
Just lots of classes and expectations. Especially with group projects. Needed someone talk to about my stress and workload. I don't know what to do with these horrible group members.

I see. It sounds like being in the group project is especially stressing you out. Would you say that's pretty true?
assistant
Restatement or Paraphrasing
Yes. I have roughly 3 different classes all requiring a group project.

I totally understand. When I was in school I remember being stressed out when we had mandatory group projects as well. Having to deal with others can be a bit stressful at times.

I agree. I also just don't know which project to proritize

Have you thought about seeking advice from a close friend or family member?
assistant
Providing Suggestions
Not yet, I am scared to tell my family, considering that they view academic success heavily With friends, most are busy with their own struggles and I don't want to be bothering them as much

I see, it sounds like you are dealing with your academic pressures all on your own right now then?
assistant
Reflection of feelings
Totally. Feels pretty tiring and heavy
user

Is there possibly a school councilor you could seek advice from?
assistant
Providing Suggestions
Maybe, but it feels scary and very awkward to seek them
user

I hear you, it's definitely not for everyone.
assistant
