Some of them bury themselves in endless homework day and night against the clock, which robs them of happiness and does them harm physically and mentally. Although pressure, to some extent, can provide motivation, overdue pressure has a serious negative affect. Pressure can destroy a student’s confidence. More seriously it might make some students lose control of their emotions and behaviors. Considering the great damage of overdue pressure, we should learn how to relieve pressure. First, we should have a right evaluation of ourselves, so it’s to make use of advantages and avoid disadvantages. Second, we’d better squeeze out some time for fun such as listening to music. Sometimes even crying is an effcient way to release stress. Finally, if you find pressure is nearly beyond your control, you’d better turn to professional psychological guidance.
