Supporting Students Through Exam Pressure & Stress
A student wellness workshop hosted by Patiala University — in partnership with Guidance Lab
|
Patiala University recently invited Mrs. Shaveta Sharma — Psychologist and Counselor at Guidance Lab — to lead a dedicated session with students on two of the most pressing concerns in young people’s lives today: exam stress and adolescent mental health. |
The session brought together students, faculty, and school leadership in an open, non-judgmental space — one where questions about pressure, anxiety, and wellbeing could be asked freely. The warmth and engagement in the room reflected something simple but important: students are ready to talk when given the right opportunity. |
Exam StressStudents explored the difference between pressure that motivates and pressure that overwhelms — and practical ways to stay grounded through high-stakes periods. |
Adolescent Mental HealthThe session covered what emotional wellbeing looks like during the teenage years, and why it matters as much as academic performance. |
When to Seek SupportStudents were encouraged to recognize signs that they — or a friend — might benefit from talking to a counselor, and how to take that first step without stigma. |
Mental health conversations in schools and universities are not a luxury — they are an essential part of education. When young people understand their own minds, they are better equipped to face every challenge, academic and beyond.
