Stress is caused by many factors, especially at this time of year with upcoming exams and all those coursework deadlines you need to meet.
A little bit of stress isn’t harmful; it can motivate you to get the work done on time. However too much stress can put your health at risk, so if it does all get too much for you and your wellbeing is affected seek professional help and see your GP.

-Here are some suggestions to combat stress:

Make sure you make time for yourself. Watch a movie or play some games to take your mind off the work for a little while.

If you’re stressed over coursework ask the lecturers or student academic support for help (studentacademicsupport@abertay.ac.uk) - they can help with essay structuring and look over any coursework that you’ve already done. They can also give direction on where to go with the work.

If you’re worried about your finances , then speak to the finance department in the University

Prioritise what you need to do, and don’t take on unnecessary responsibilities. Also, if you have some work to get done for a society or something else, don’t feel you must shoulder all the burden; asking for and accepting help with the tasks will share the load, and things will get done quicker.

If you know you are going to have a week full of deadlines, prepare early. Don’t let everything pile up so make a plan for what needs done for when.

Manage your stress by noting what you need to get done from most stressful to least stressful, and try to get those high stress things done first.

Write down everything that is worrying you and how you are feeling. This can help you see clearly what needs done, and can help prevent bottling up your stress and anxieties.

Speak to your friends and flatmates if you are all stressed about the same thing.

If there are family worries or are stressed about other things besides University, then the counselling service is available (counselling@abertay.ac.uk) and we are also here too.


These are just a few suggestions, and remember to seek medical attention if your health is beign affected. If you have anythign additional, then leave a comment.
