Exam stress can feel lonely and a heavy load to carry, but you don’t have to tackle it alone. Lots of young people find exams difficult and it’s okay to need support.

Don’t hold it all in – try talking to someone about what’s on your mind. If someone knows you feel stressed, they can have your back, encourage you and listen when you need them to. It could be a friend, family member, carer, community/faith leader, teacher, or anyone else you trust. You don’t have to go through this alone.
