We all have our fair share of anxious encounters during our high school years. If you can relate to any of my problems, you are not alone. I hope this piece can give my fellow teenagers peace of mind. Can you compete with the weird worries that creep into my mind and lay anxiety eggs in my brain? Tell me about your anxieties! Don't get sad about it, GET MAD! Get it all out! It really helped me and I know it will help you! Thanks!
