Signs of excessive exam stress

In recent years, we have been treating a lot of people with different degrees of psychological anxiety related to exams, and these people have been seeking help from college entrance exams, secondary school exams, and graduate school exams, as well as job hunting and promotion. Now that the high school exams are around the corner, it is true that the candidates who usually work hard to prepare for the exams and lose due to imbalance in their mindset before the exams are all over the place. At this time to talk to students to reduce pressure will actually give the candidates unconscious reminders: “you should be nervous”, increasing the invisible pressure atmosphere, but is to increase pressure is not to reduce pressure. What we see is not only the candidates are under pressure, in fact, parents, schools and even the whole society are in the exam pressure and anxiety. I think, at this stage, it is important not to talk to the candidates about stress regulation, but should be given to parents, school teachers to reduce pressure, because their pressure will eventually be transferred to the candidates, is overwhelmed by the candidates and malfunction. Normal exam stress can increase the psychological burden, but it can stimulate the stress response, so that people play fighting spirit, good clinical state. Neurotic anxiety is just the opposite. When the pressure is too heavy and too many other important meanings are attached to it besides the test itself, it is bound to become heavy. The resulting anxiety may not only be a useful warning and caution for some people, but may become a burden beyond their ability to bear, i.e. neurotic anxiety. The psychological disorder caused by exam tension can be manifested as one of the following different symptoms: 1, restlessness and restlessness, uncomfortable to name, from the bedroom to the living room from the computer to the toilet, like a mouse in a cage or a prisoner at home can not be quiet. 2, easy to lose temper, see what things are not good often because of small things, especially at home is more obvious, so that the whole family are tolerated to avoid. 3, poor sleep, sleep difficulties or early awakening, or those who need to be accompanied by people, patting their backs and stroking their heads, holding hands in order to be at peace. After waking up, there is a sense of loss and emptiness. 4.Increased concentration, headache, dizziness, panic, sweating, shaking hands and feet, chills, general fatigue and weakness, and lack of energy. Inner anxiety but action is not strong, and then blame their bodies do not compete. 5, repeatedly check and organize items, books, always feel that they have something seems not to get it right. Or exhausted thinking about a thought. Over and over again, knowing that it is not necessary but can not control themselves not to think or do. 6, feel ashamed of themselves do not want to go out to meet people, especially those who are familiar with the past or have a good opinion of themselves. When they are at home, they don’t go downstairs, and when they come out once in a while, they just walk along the wall with their heads down. Some people will be very sensitive to other people’s proposal to see a doctor, want to go and can not make up their mind. 7, tea and food, hunger and satiety do not care, describe the slovenly. Lazy, sleepy, unwilling to get up. Loss of interest in the daily things in life, but can be happy under the influence of a cheerful atmosphere. Lack of stamina and patience in doing things. Sometimes feeling depressed, feeling aggrieved, wanting to cry, feeling that there is no point in living. When you meet your relatives, you want to complain and moan. If the above situation occurs, it indicates that there is too much stress and needs some adjustment.
