This gave me more stress. When she said heart attacks

I know I'm dead soon I hope I don't die too stressful
lol
The fact that I have to clean my house is stressing me out
Rlly 😐😂
MissDarcei y would u be stressed out about cleaning?
Yeah, I bet! But when you start doing it, it'll change your mood! (from personal experience ;) )
Dont worry me too, i have the feeling i want to clean but at the same time i dont
TheHidden ! Because its a house, you dont know where to even start
Kind of relieving going through the comments and seeing the hyperbolic stressful experiences of commenters. Puts my stress into perspective knowing that everyone experiences stress and that I am not isolated in a solitary world of stress and anxiety.
you're absolutely not alone.
It isn't at all easy to just relax, I have serious anxiety and social issues at school (so I like to express my inner feelings on the Internet) and I find it very hard to work among other children. P.E and Cooking are my worst lessons, I hate screwing up or being laughed at, and NO, I can't just "laugh it off" like other people do. I've tried helping myself by talking to adults but they're not helping. Everything's progressing too slowly and I have to continue to suffer, people don't take me seriously enough. Private education comes at a cost which is very disappointing for me as I feel that I would be more comfortable with private tutorition. It's a shame that such a lot of people have to go through all this stress, and being a 13 year old I feel like there's a lot more put upon me. It's absolutely depressing and petrifying.
I have serious anxiety issues too. I'm always nervous and it's really hard for me to concentrate and work on something that I don't find interest in. Also, I'm the only one in my class that likes astronomy and paleontology, so I can't 'relate' to anyone. Plus there are a whole bunch of other things that I have trouble with, etc.
Same here! I also prefer my own company, literally my entire class consists of loudmouths.
Oh you think you have loudmouths? My class consists of 80% males, and they YELL to talk.
"BananaDolphins" The Third Also, I have a very strong drive to know EVERYTHING. So I'm constantly asking people about stuff, and I just can't stop. And, the kids in my class play a game called "four square", which is really unfair. Everyone targets me and tries to get me out because I get them out. I'm just playing the game. P.s And in this game people have made alliances with each other, so they don't get each other out and by the time someone is out the bell rings. And I'm the only one not in an 'alliance', so there's another reason for people to target me. P.P.s I also ramble a lot, so sorry about that.
Don't worry, I know how it feels x3 Sometimes we just need to get our bottled up thoughts out where we feel secure
WISH WE COULD TURN BACK TIME, TO THA GOOD OL DAAAYSS WHEN DA MOMMAS SANG US TO SLEEP BUT NOW WERE STRESSED OUT

Be careful not to get a Burnout!
POV: your teacher made you watch this because of 2020 and your school is cringey
OMG LMAO YES
Nah, I just need a video for reference. This is actually a really helpful one, so kudos to this video!
How did you knowwwwwww!!!!!!
HOW DID YOU KNOW?!? But I love this video for some reason XD
yessss😭
U know what help me keep stress out? Watching my iPad :)
thanks for putting this on KZhead. I'm having a fucked up day!
Tyrelle Frazier a fucked up day isn't a fucked up life . Always have that on your mind 😉
Your voice stressed the fuck out of me!!!!
Same bro, she speaks like a crackhead ! Haha
+1 voice not helping one bit
Crazy Creepzzz Chills that's really really rude you could have said that you just didn't like her voice.
Cadence Kliesch She speaks with a high pitch voice that gets her going crazy she is one crazy bitch
seifeldinhamed hey! If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything
Effective advice videos 101, don't have a high pitched voice over on a removing stress video
right lol
So true.
i was just about to comment that XD
oh god yes,this freaked me out aaah 😥
wait thats true tho i had my volume high and it made me had butterflies in my stomugh
The woman who voices these is chosen perfectly in my opinion, I often watch these just to calm me down after panic attacks because of her voice
exactly. and anything bad she has to say she makes it sound funny =)
LOVE the narrator here. Great stuff! thanks.
Thank you so much for sharing this, I really enjoyed watching it and being reminded of the importance of de-stressing, and ways of actually doing so
Right now it is the middle of summer. I am doing absolutely nothing and I have nothing to be overwhelmed about. But I just feel overwhelmed and stressed.
When you have nothing to do, or you dont talk to anyone, you might begin to think that people dont hang out with you because they dont like you, even if your friends want to invite you to their house.... I know this myself, so today im going to go to my friends house and have a good laugh.. You might relax by doing the same
Same not having anything to do stresses me out
wow you are lucky nothing to really to stress about lol rich people problems
Lucy myself lucky you look at me now im worried what rank im gonna be and worried about my notebook because i dont copy sometime im so stress trying to think all of that and all so my self esteem is low right now so your so lucky that your doing nothing
Lucy myself Normally your brain is busy with fixing school problems, work problems, etc. But when you're not doing anything at all for a longer period of time, your brain is so trained to fix problems, it's starting to create problems for itself to fix.
Your videos are seriously helpful to me. Thanks so much!! Xxx
Watching your videos is so therapeutic. Thanks Wellcast!!
There couldn't have been a more well timed video. Finals are coming in up, but I'm gonna make sure I take some to time to make sure I'm relaxed too. Thanks!
Meditation is very good. I tried it to sleep better at night and it calms you down quite a lot.
I am getting stressed just by listening to your voice lol
Her voice is magical..
Hope i could talk to her
Lmao, shes doing her best, what does your voice sound like?
Stress can affect out physical and mental health in different ways. This is a great video explaining the consequences of stress and some advice on how to fight it.
Stress is my latest enemy of 2016
me too😞
Same here! 😖😖
Haha cheer up folks. You got greatness all around you. It's just you telling yourself that you might not have what it takes.
Aja Douglas Same! Are u working or studying?
Aja Douglas ones I started school I almost go crazy

Me too
I don't get why I'm stressed out all the time although everything is fine but maybe it's bc I'm used to it
Same here! I keep stressing out but in the end nothing happened. 😕

Breezfuly WHEN I WAS A KID IN 2012 I WAS 9 I THOUGHT THE WORLD WAS GONNA END AND GUESS WHAT 5 YEARS LATER IM ALIVE
It's momentum man.. What you focus on, expands in importance.
Have you learned to bottle your true feelings / emotions?
a lot of people might feel the voice is not soothing but for me it is really comforting as it sounds a lot like my best friend. thanks a lot for helping me.❤❤❤
THX! this really helped me lower my stress! this was actually the first video of your's I watched.
I love the amount of energy you put in this video. Keep doing what you do and I'm sure this video is going to help many people.
Are you reading our mind? We are coming out with a video on interviewing next week!! Hope your stuco interview went well!
I got so much happier after watching this video, thank you so much!
Your animations are AMAZING! :D Thanks so much to the whole cast!
That's very cool! thanks a lot!
I'm about the most stressed I've ever been. From severe insomnia to the approaching exam week and 3 out of my 7 classes being honors courses, plus my driver's test coming up, and an extracurricular on top of all that... I feel like I've been on autopilot these last few days.
+Molly Howard Being on autopilot's still better than being a burnt out wreck right?
+Molly Howard i hate exams so much,, they stress me out so fricken much. so i say to my self F#@! it to cheer my self up and relieve stress. then i get even more stressed out because i feel like i dont care anymore and my future is ruined. all i want is a little peace and relaxation.
+Clara Danes School stresses me out so much! what do i do?! Specifically working to get high marks is what stresses me out. I have this fear that i wont get good enough marks to pursue my dream jobs and... some times it can be really depressing and i dont know what to do F@#!
Love how they've been using more colors lately. It's nice!
Thanks for doing this video Wellcast :) I have been really really enjoying your videos lately, and they have been very helpful.
School stresses me so much and I'm only in the 6th grade! I hate school so much. Nothing seems to be helping me 😔😣😩😫😓😖😰
do a to do list and also see how much time you waste and try to use that time for your to do list, don't use phones too much only before you finish your tasks. I always think like this: I don't need to hurry, If I hurry I do wrong and have to correct a lot! If I do correct I have time to chat to my friends! Good Luck!!!
Thank you! I'll definitely try this! 😃😊
+Ariana Grande. Oh no. I can't take much more but I'll have to put up with it
Ariana Grande No matter the situation, stress is stress.
Same im a sixth grader and math honorrrrsssss is stressing me OUT
the fact that my teacher sent me this to ‘help’ me out isn’t really it.
same
Exercise is my go to: it improves my grades, social life, and ability to cope with stressful events.
7 years later and I still come back to this video
honestly her voice is stressing me out
I get so much acne in between my eyebrows due to school stress and whenever I'm at home trying to get my mind off of the stress from having to work on a project, homework, studying for a 100 point test and by doing so I get my mind distracted by watching something funny on KZhead but then that's even more time wasted and adds even more stress and I just can't take it and right now is close to Christmas break and this week is the week and EVERY teacher is trying to cram 100 point tests projects and ALL THE HOMEWORK in the world into one day but I have a busy schedule on Tuesdays and Thursdays I have sports and have no time for school stuff and more than half of these things I don't even know how to do RIP my grades I have a welcoming ceremony for my F's and a funeral for my A's and B's (I WILL NEVER FORGET YOU A's AND B's)
Cheese Lover Girl to be really honest with you, the best advice i can give especially with homework, test and exam stress is to give yourself an orgasm. You'll feel better, more comfortable and tension free!
James Trentham wtf
If you're still in primary school, the lessons are still easy. If you're already in secondary school, it's pretty normal for the lessons to become difficult. We should learn to be more optimistic and confident to overcome our difficulties.
wow! great video. Loved they way you have simplified and explained the things.
Thanks for posting the video. Great job! I like shower, workout, eat healthy and sleep. That is the best way to keep me calm and less stressful. Speaking of workout, I am heading out to the gym and do another bicep curl. I will look good and stronger. Stay positive.
smoke a huge blunt
how😥
Lol. What if its "They're coming! They're coming!" ? Won't you be more stressed?
Yeaaaah, smoking when you're stressed might actually make it worse and give you a panic attack or a bad trip.
Or even better inject some heroin
Michael Jackson I stopped doing heroin 10 months ago and my stress is now crazy intense like im trying to find ways to calm down and it's so hard
plz make a video related " how to adjust our schedule during a life of student "

If our teacher sends one more goddamn video like this I’m gonna cry 😀
How can I do simple tasks when my parents keep telling me to do things every 7 seconds!
tell them how you feel and that you just need some time to *relax*
I tried telling them how I feel like maybe 1 day of relaxing but she yelled at me
+Joreen Sia punch her in the face! 😡 no no lol sorry don't do that. it's just how i would feel lol. my parents also tell me to do things but i just ignore them. you are not their puppet. do everything you like. relax, play, eat, study. keep your normal schedule. don't listen to them.

@Wellcast I'm not 5. This voice she's using is nothing but condescending and only increases stress. Give it to me straight or not at all.
Thank you! This video is really helpfull, and at the same time beautiful and fun to watch. Great job!
Thank you for creating this!! My 11 year old daughter is suffering from anxiety/stress and this video helped her understand and visualize the stressors in her life.
Post more videos! ITS BEEN 7 MONTHS
Am I the only one who thinks she sounds like joy from inside out?
Um yeah she does sound like joy
um yeah.
Your voice is so calming, I usually hate these kind of videos!
Omg you may have just changed my life :P I was studying like an absolute machine in the few coldest months of winter... I was drinking 10+ mugs a day of peppermint* tea and didn't know it helps with stress. I have gone back to being stressed since it started warming up and I stopped drinking tea. Will be drinking peppermint tea throughout tomorrow and seeing how I go! (peppermint is a hybrid between watermint and spearmint and also has the desired affect)
i get stressful just thinking about stress
I am so stressed i was cryingwell the videos playing
Great suggestion!
you have no idea how much I needed this. Thank you so, so, so much
Joe
i miss the channel
Me too
Thank you. This is a very good resource to use with my at risk students. It helps me too.
Fantastic! This was a much-requested topic.
I like your videos but her voice is too high for my ear
Angel Herrero Same here, her voice actually stresses me out!
Im just Eleven years old and im stressing so much i have been getting gray hair 😢
lol one day my mum found a gray hair on my head. one gray hair. like, ..one. how do we say that?! 😂
Joanna's tutorials I also have one strand of white hair. I get stressed every night.
Thanks for making the vid! I've been totes stressed over starting middle school next year but this really helped! :)
ty wellcast for helping me with my worries :)
I'm trying so hard to not stress and just move on but my mind just won't let me :( I feel so trapped.
I know right. Don't you ever forget you only live once, at least whenever you feel down, go do something CRAZY fun and see if it makes it easier to cope with your annoying crybaby friend called Stress. :)
mattamax thank you for the advice! :)
Breezy Kersey Hey, no problem! We're all out there struggling with the very similar stuff! It's quite relaxing to know.
God help me I am tooooo stressed out!!
The best thing you can do is meditate, Go and do it, no excuses, there is a long video on youtube (about 50 mins) it says about all about meditation.I'm doing 10 min everyday for about a week now, and my mood is perfect
I have a REALLY BIG art project due in 2 days!!! WTF! I AM SOOOO STRESSED!
+Hunain Farid me to I feel that way to it bothers me
this didn't help me for the organizational mechanisms for coping with stress that I was looking for but it gives me a huge smile and nice time thanks, btw love the cast form you pick for this
Thanks WellCast! I needed something like this, my stress was getting to me. :)
Why I'm depressed School People in my area People Rumors Fake Friends Embarrassing moments that last a life time P.E. (because of me being embarrassed by people and being laughed at) Barely any friends Scared Embarrassing photos Exams (because I'm stupid) Racism/Sterotypes People discouraging me telling me "You can't do it." I want to start a KZhead channel, move out start a new life, raise money for people that have cancer, depression, etc. As well as me having money to move out, as I said start a new life, this doesn't help me, I can't imagine people feeling suicidal having depression but if I ever start a KZhead channel, it won't grow and I'll become laughing stock. I need a real friend before its too late...
stay strong. do things that make you happy, if it helps
Why would Twitter stress me? ._.
*shrugs* I dont know
drama, I guess
Oh my god this is the best channel ever!! Why is here voice so calming
I felt really stressed before meeting my bothfriend for the first time because i had to travel for almost three hours. This really helped me create a plan for myself to help me relax. Thank you so much!
Peer pressure can be a tough situation because we always wanted to stick with our friends rather than letting them go. If you're having peer pressure, we should learn to be more flexible and find new friends.
This will NOT help for me 😁
Fuck off then
Lightbringer it didn't help you either LOL
you're voice is pretty stressful, that made it worst...
Ooooh, yeah, that's a great one. We might work it onto the docket later this fall as we head into the holidays.
Thanks so much wellcast team! I watched every video and this one helped me a lot!! I took my first exam today and now I know what I can do to relax before the next one (: Sorry for my bad english! Love, C.
Been stressed for over a year already. It's like I'm its favorite client. 😧 It wont leave me anymore. As long as my current problems exist, stress will never leave me alone.
Great video. The little things in life. They matter.
I absolute loved this video! It was just what I needed :)
This helped a lot.Thank You
